Patent attributes
A spill resistant beverage container assembly for spill free beverage consumption includes a cup and a lid that is complementary to a top of the cup so that the lid is positioned to be selectively coupled to the cup to sealably close the top. The lid comprises a sidewall that is coupled to and extends between an upper plate and a lower plate to define an interior space. An aperture is positioned in the lid proximate to a circumference of the lid. A detection and access module that is coupled to the lid and positioned in the interior space is configured to detect motion in proximity to the aperture, positioning the detection and access module to open the aperture so that the aperture is configured to allow sipping of a beverage that is positioned in the cup.
