Drinking wine together: a glowing experience

Scientists have come up with high-tech glasses that let you share a drink with someone--even if you're far apart. The glasses incorporate a variety of coloured LEDs, liquid sensors and wireless links:

When either person picks up a glass, red LEDs on their partner's glass glow gently. And when either puts the glass to their lips, sensors make white LEDs on the rim of the other glass glow brightly, so you can tell when your other half takes a sip.


So even if you aren't all aglow, your glass will be!
