Overview
The LumiMug transforms a standard coffee mug into an intelligent wellness companion.
Key Components
- Thermal Core: Peltier modules maintain exact temperature (45-65°C)
- UV-C Lid: Automatic sterilization between sips
- Hydration Sensor: Capacitive ring tracks volume consumed
- E-Ink Base: Displays temperature, hydration stats, and reminders
How It Works
- Pour your drink — the thermal core activates instantly
- UV-C lid sterilizes the rim every 3 minutes
- Hydration data syncs to your phone via Bluetooth LE
- E-ink display shows real-time stats
Scientific Explanation
The LumiMug uses thermoelectric cooling via Peltier effect — when current passes through two conductors, heat transfers from one side to the other. This allows both heating and cooling without moving parts. UV-C light at 254nm damages microbial DNA, preventing replication. Capacitive sensing measures liquid volume by detecting dielectric changes in the vessel.
