Sen.se launches a new application for day-to-day monitoring of your water intake or that of vulnerable persons. It’s DRINK and it’s vital!
Paris, July 22, 2015 – Sen.se, pioneer of the Internet of Things and inventor of the renowned Mother system and its versatile sensors, adds yet another application to the multiple functions of its device. DRINK helps users to stay hydrated with real-time monitoring of their water intake and alerts them in case of insufficient hydration. DRINK is the best proof that Sen.se versatile multifunctional sensors offer an unparalleled solution for daily events in constant flux.
Sen.se unveils DRINK to avoid the negative impact of hot weather on children, seniors and everyone else. The dedicated application in conjunction with the Motion Cookies help to always stay hydrated
How does it work? Simply attach a Cookie to the bottle that you are inclined to use throughout the day. The application detects and analyses its movements and estimates the amount of water that has been consumed. In case of prolonged inactivity or if the consumed quantity is insufficient, the user receives a notification, text message or a reminder call on his smartphone. Mother can also produce the sound of running water as a reminder that it is time to drink. The system is non-intrusive. When the user drinks enough water, the application remains silent.
You have the option to set the amount of water that should be consumed each day as well as the time interval for the reminder. You can also specify the type of container (large or small bottle, glass, water bottle). You choose your preferred type of notification. The detailed historical chart of your water consumption is displayed on your dashboard (Senseboard), available on your computer, tablet or smartphone. The application is designed for personal use as well as for assisting dependent elderly people. It allows trusted third parties to receive notifications when the person has not drunk enough water. A weekly report can be sent by email to designated caregivers or family.
The use of a single Cookie attached to an ordinary bottle allows seniors to benefit from the system while simply interacting with their everyday objects and making the same gestures they are used to. The technology blends into the fabric of their daily life to provide more comfort and security without stress and no need for prior learning
Rafi Haladjian, founder of Sen.se said: “Drink is yet another illustration of our vision: create smart and small sensors that let you do more and more uses according to your current needs, time of year or lifestyle.
