What is "vessyl"

Vessyl is a drinking glass announced in 2014, with embedded sensors and the capability of linking to a smartphone to provide its user with nutritional and other data on the beverage contained. The cup is expected to recharge via inductive charging on a proprietary base station. Industrial designer Yves Béhar was involved in its creation.

Originally, the device was expected to ship in "Early 2015", however in March 2015 the designers announced that the shipping date would slip to "early Q4 2015".
