Intro
Our system includes (1) a smart mug that can recognize user drinking from it, and (2) a digital photo frame that displays a playful game connecting water drinking to watering a virtual tree. The Mug-Tree reminds users to drink water regularly, and also help users to develop a good water drinking habit by attracting continuous participation to this game.
