A reservoir adapter for a tumbler. The tumbler has a body defining an interior and having a generally cylindrical outer profile and an internal wall defining a beverage container of a predetermined capacity. The reservoir adapter includes a body defining a reservoir channel in fluid communication with a top opening at an upper portion of the body and a bottom opening at a bottom portion of the body. The body including a lower member for being securely received within the interior of the tumbler; the reservoir channel in fluid communication with an interior of the tumbler via the lower member. The body including an upper member defining a lid receiving portion for receiving a lid for the tumble. The top opening of the reservoir in fluid communication with the upper member. The body includes a central portion disposed between the lower and upper member of the body. The central portion has an interior sidewall defining a portion of the reservoir channel and an exterior sidewall offset from the interior sidewall. The central portion having at least one compartment defined by the offset between the interior sidewall and the exterior sidewall. At least one compartment for housing at least one speaker and at least one processor for processing instructions for operating the speaker.

A beverage container lid can include an audio speaker; a wireless transceiver to transmit and receive wireless signals; and a hardware processor to process wireless signals received by the wireless transceiver and to output audible signals through the audio speaker. The beverage container lid can also include a water-tight housing, the wireless transceiver and hardware processor contained within the water-tight housing; a drinking aperture; and a fluid channel, the fluid channel to allow fluid to pass through the drinking aperture, and the water-tight housing to prevent fluid passing through the fluid channel from contacting the wireless transceiver and hardware processor.

A double walled illuminated vessel for displaying indicia comprising an outer sleeve, an inner liner, a lens, a transparent or translucent connection ring, a base and an illumination module adapted to be inserted into the base whereby the base and connection ring are connected to each other creating a base illumination unit. Light from the illumination module passes through the hollow space between the outer sleeve and the inner liner such that the lens bearing indicia is illuminated thus prominently displaying any desired graphic, logo, design, trademark, symbol, letter, number or any other indicia. The connection ring transmits and diffuses light through the inner liner and upper rim as well as the sidewall of the connection ring. The base illumination unit is removable from the outer sleeve and can be used as an independent light source by a user. Additionally, the illumination module is rechargeable in one embodiment and can provide an adequate charge to a mobile device. Further embodiments provided for a removable lens or lens unit.

A system including: a container device, wherein said container device is configured to track or monitor a consumption of a liquid stored in said container device; a container body that is configured to store the liquid of which consumption of the liquid is tracked or monitored, in which said container body comprises a double walled container body for insulation; a container lid that is configured to prevent the liquid from escaping said double walled container body; a capacitive sensor, wherein said capacitive sensor is configured to monitor the liquid flowing in and out of said double walled container body; and an accelerometer implement, wherein said accelerometer implement is configured to determine a tilt of said double walled container body.

An active foodware system includes a mechanical structure supporting a food surface recessed in relation to an area surrounding the food surface; a heating component for heating food received by the food surface; a sensing component for maintaining the heating component at a desired temperature; a wireless communication component; and a visual stimulating component responsive to data from the sensing component or the wireless communication component.

A beverage vessel includes: a beverage container in which a beverage may be stored said beverage container having an upper opening by which beverage may be poured in and poured out of the beverage container and a wall extending from the opening to the bottom of the beverage container; a closure element adapted to be positioned in the upper opening of the beverage container; a light distribution element arranged at the closure element; and a light emitter positioned such that the light emitted by the light emitter passes at least a part of the volume of the beverage container before entering the light distribution element; wherein said closure element comprises a locking mechanism, said locking mechanism comprising at least three locking arms extending in radial direction of the beverage vessel to the beverage container, wherein each arm of the locking element comprises an elastic portion being elastic in the radial direction of the beverage vessel; the beverage container comprises at least one concave portion in the wall, said concave portion extending in radial direction of the beverage vessel; and said arms releasably engage in the concave portion in the wall for releasably locking the closure element to the beverage container.

A smart container that includes a bottle or other container, a load cell, an accelerometer, a processor, and a colored light source. The container may be a liquid container, a pill container, or a food container. The colored light source may include one or more light-emitting diodes (LEDs) which can be programed to emit unique illumination patterns. The container may also include a speaker or motor to emit audio and vibrational notifications. The container provides a method of tracking consumption by a user of a substance held in a container.

A system including: a container device, wherein said container device is configured to track or monitor a consumption of a liquid stored in said container device; a container body that is configured to store the liquid of which consumption of the liquid is tracked or monitored, in which said container body comprises a double walled container body for insulation; a container lid that is configured to prevent the liquid from escaping said double walled container body; a capacitive sensor, wherein said capacitive sensor is configured to monitor the liquid flowing in and out of said double walled container body; and an accelerometer implement, wherein said accelerometer implement is configured to determine a tilt of said double walled container body.

Consumption of safe beverages improves health, physical performance, and prevents disease. A system includes a device that monitors a beverage within a vessel to determine if the beverage is safe to drink. The device may include a pH sensor to determine a pH value of the beverage. This pH value is compared to a pH range that is deemed safe. A comparison between the pH value and the pH range may be made, and the results presented to a user. The system may include a mixing device to automatically mix the beverage, or the system may prompt a user to manually mix the beverage. Data from other sensors may also be used to assess the beverage. The device may be implemented in various form factors such as a cup, lid, straw, stirrer, and so forth. The device may communicate with other devices, such as a phone, tablet, or server.
