This ceramic container is made from china, in China. It is non-toxic, non-magnetic, non-radioactive, semi-recyclable, non-polluting, non-disposable, non-conductive, non-elastic, multipurpose and user-programmable.

The device features a passive-marker printed enhancement integrated into the visual branding, and the cylindrical precision hand-encoder can be employed with an unlimited number of third party particulate and liquid contents and generic optical pickup systems.

The passive human readable and machine readable markers – including our internet software and information dispensary contact details – enable a remarkable depth of capacity and infinitely customisable possibility.

The device enables extensive exploration of user interface, contents and positional information, and can be employed with optical sources and sensors to sense rotary and linear position, and assign data or actuation outputs corresponding to the device’s measured state..

In conjunction with the embedded marker systems and information portal, this device has limitless possibilities, and can be a joy to experience, interact with or via, and continually learn from.

These 21st century digital mugs can be used as a three dimensional rotary encoder and “space mouse” and user interface pointing device for automation and immersive experiences, in additonal to a cup’s conventional dispensing and temporary storage purpose.

Please be advised that this is a development versions, and that V2 will be a laboratory-grade / optical grade borosilicate glass model rather than the opaque “white label” V1 Beta, which will enable optical measurement of the level of fill.
