Smart menstrual cup with tracker and calendar

WONDERZINE talks about interesting, useful, beautiful, strange or smart things you want to buy immediately.

Imagine a team of 8 people - five women and three men - who have been discussing their periods for half a year, day and night. Exactly the way the work on the creation of the first smart menstrual cup Looncup, the production of which is now collecting money for Kickstarter, was going on. Looncup is five steps ahead of ordinary reusable caps - thanks to the built-in miniature tracker (its length is just over 2 cm), it assumes all the concerns associated with menstruation. Monitors the cycle and using the smartphone application of the same name sends a notification of the imminent beginning of the month; analyzes the volume, color and duration of discharge, and if they look suspicious - signals that you should consult a doctor. The most important thing is that Looncup keeps track of the fullness of the bowl and reminds (more than once) when it is time to empty it. In general, the description gives the feeling that humanity has taken another small step towards the future, where our everyday problems are solved by robots and computers, and we are busy with more important things.

The creators of Looncup promise that their menstrual cup is absolutely safe for the female body. It is made of medical grade silicone, hypoallergenic and does not contain latex. The sensor, battery and antenna are securely fixed inside the cap, and it itself communicates with the smartphone via Bluetooth - which is also harmless to the body. It is assumed that the Looncup batteries will last for half a year of proper work, after which the bowl will need to be replaced. It is as easy to care for her as for ordinary menstrual cups - to wash with warm water with soap or a special means for intimate hygiene; the main thing is not to boil or heat the Looncup in the microwave, and also not to accidentally break off the antenna, which is located in the core of the bowl. From the ridiculous: with Looncup it is better not to try to undergo inspection at the airport, otherwise you will have to remove not only the belt and shoes. You can buy a miracle bowl right now, but deliver it no earlier than January 2016.
