とっても実用的な発明ネ！
There are some very practical inventions and if you like to drink then this next invention will make your life a whole lot easier……

A Japanese electronics company has developed a hi-tech pint glass that tells bar staff when it needs refilling. The intelligent glass is fitted with a radio-frequency coil in its base that emits a signal to a receiver set in the table when it's empty.

 The iGlassware system works by coating each glass with a clear, conducting material, enabling it to measure exactly how much liquid has been sippedor guzzled. When empty, the glass sends an electronic cry for more beer from the table to waiters equipped with hand-held computers on frequencies similar to those used by mobile phones.

This is a huge advance in the science of drinking. Now patrons don't even have to go through the inconvenience of ordering drinks. They can just sit and enjoy!!!!

日本の電気メーカがとっても便利なグラスを発明したのよ。お客さんの飲んでいるビールがなくなると、自動的に無線でバーのスタッフに知らせるのよ。それもチビチビ飲んでいるのか、沢山のんでいるか、どれ位の量を飲んでいるかまで判ってしまうらしいの。グラスが空になると、ウェイターのハンドヘルドコンピュータに携帯電話で使われているのと同じ電波で知らせる仕組みですって。
すごい進歩ね！お客さんは、もうおお代わりをいちいちする必要もないし、座って楽しんでいればいいのよ！
