Problem Statement:
Nearly 80% of people do not drink enough water, leading to several serious health issues. It is a significant concern for vulnerable populations like the elderly and young children, who may be less aware of their hydration needs. There is no way to track the exact amount of water consumed by an individual in a family.

About the Innovation:
Young inventors from DiscoverSTEM developed an intelligent system that detects and records the exact amount of water consumed by every member of a family. The system identifies the user of the smart drinking glass using a registered fingerprint and then detects the amount of water consumed by weight difference before and after consumption. This smart tumbler also detects if the water is poured and not consumed by the user, thus creating a family dashboard of the exact amount of water consumption by everyone in the family.

DiscoverSTEM founders Mirza Rizwan and Mirza Faizan have made history by becoming the first Indian to win the coveted George Washington Honor Medal from the Freedoms Foundation – USA.

Started in 1949 by former US President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Freedoms Foundation honors exceptional contributions of Americans towards communities in the USA. Generally reserved for the US citizens, the awarding organization made an exception to recognize the stellar research work and its impact of India’s Mr. Rizwan in designing and implementing a unique STEM & Innovation program for American children, thereby revolutionizing the education system in the USA.

Few of the other notable non-US citizens who have received George Washington Honor Medal include Ms. Margaret Thatcher (Former Prime Minister of United Kingdom), Lech Walesa (Former President of Poland and Noble Prize winner) and world-renowned Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. As the latest recipients of this prestigious honor, Mirza brothers join historically acclaimed group of citizens whose work and dedication advance the American ideals, the award letter says.

Some of the distinguished US citizens who have received this award for their stellar contributions in their field are Walt Disney, Astronauts Sally Ride and John Glenn, Capt. Sully Sullenberger, Athletes like Arthur Ashe, George Foreman and Tiger Woods and famous US educator Jaime Escalante.
