Time for a drink in a healthy way

New device is not only smart, but trendy with a sense of innovation

After smart wristbands that can track your every movement, and smart scales that can monitor your weight, a new wave of technology is now expected to delve even deeper into monitoring everyday life, including one device which even promises to revolutionize the way we do things as bland as drinking a cup of water.

Pre-orders opened on Nov 26 for Ocup with more than 750 people having paid for at a price of 669 yuan ($109.5) on JD.com, what its developer Shenzhen-based Rrioo Technology Co Ltd calls a "smart cup".
