Smart Drink Coasters

These drink coasters (beer coasters) are so smart, they know when a drink has been placed on them and whether it is full or empty. They can notify the bartender when you need a new drink, and even be used to play drinking games.

only way to make it more annoying is to add a speaker that buzzes along with the lights.

That would be VERY annoying. Now the notification of and empty drink seems practical, but the lights are distracting.

That's exactly what I want when I'm drinking - a ultralight lamp in my face.

I'd rather have a woman talk my ear off than drink along with that thing

I'm not to sure, maybe for a relay to the bar where waitresses are working...

@poonfestian why would you need to interconnect them? They signal the bartender by means of light :)

[poonfestian]

are those built into the table or do they have some type of wireless, wi fi, blue tooth connection?

After too much beers you will see some kind of Wth lights!
