Smart measuring cup concept is picked up

SmartMeasure by Ryan Eder & Chris Daniels of Priority Designs

This here is the concept design of The Smart Measure Cup by Ryan Eder & Chris Daniels of Priority Designs.  This is a product that I would totally use (if I were ever in the kitchen, measuring stuff).  This is no ordinary measuring cup.  From one angle it may seem like one with the usual markings and labels; it’s the LCD screen on the handle that makes this the measuring cup of the future.  The backlit LCD display reads out the precise measurements of liquid poured into the cup; it is set at an angle, thus removing the difficulties of eye strain and the like; it provides pre-set measurement ingredient amounts for common recipies; and it even does unit conversions for all you math-hates out there.  Also, the cup itself slips out of the casing for cleaning.

And here’s the best news:  This clearly futuristic product is being transformed from concept to a tangible product thanks to Taylor Kitchenware picking it to be manufactured this fall.  Check out more images of the concept design and an image of the final product coming to stores soon.  Unfortunately the final design does not match the modern sleekness of its concept counterpart, though, it’ll do.
