Open Development
In this section we will be revealing upcoming developments, features, and technologies.
One aspect we are hoping to improve with upcoming models, is smartphone Ai integration, infrared spectroscopy, and pressurization. Pressurization is important, because during the opening of the cup, the hydrogen concentration falls back to the maximum dissolvable hydrogen gas concentration in water. This amount varies based on water temperature.
At room temperature the maximum amount of dissolved hydrogen gas in water is about 1600ppb. During the electrolysis, assumed the hydrogen water bottle is using materials which are not permeable to hydrogen gas, the pressure inside the bottle can rise and achieve higher hydrogen gas concentrations. However, once the cup is opened, the concentration immediately falls back to the maximum dissolvable amount in water:
1. *0°C (32°F)*: 2,100 - 2,400 ppb
2. *4°C (39°F)*: 1,800 - 2,100 ppb
3. *10°C (50°F)*: 1,600 - 1,800 ppb
4. *20°C (68°F)*: 1,200 - 1,600 ppb
In order to consume a higher amount of hydrogen gas than dissolvable in water, we have to pressurize the bottle.
Our solution to that problem is a new pressurized design that eliminates the necessity of opening the cup in combination with medical-grade materials which are not permeable to hydrogen gas, such as 904L stainless steel and borosilicate glass. The bottle will have a valve to prevent hydrogen gas from escaping. This aspect is often overlooked. All materials have to be chosen based on several aspects. For one, the material has to be extremely chemically stable and non-reactive to ensure water purity without leaching chemicals and other substances into the drinking water. Secondly, the material has to be chosen to prevent hydrogen gas from escaping easily. 904L stainless steel and double-layered borosilicate glass fulfill both requirements.
Through pressurization and our proprietary electrolysis technology, we can achieve hydrogen gas concentrations slightly above 5000 ppb or 5 mg/L, using a covered mouthpiece and internal straw.
Infrared Spectroscopy, UV Purification, and Bluetooth integration
We are planning to integrate commercial-grade sensors, infrared spectroscopy, and UV purification. These technologies will expand the control you have over the water you drink, provide a full constituent analysis, connect to your smartphone, provide over-the-air updates, algorithms, voltage adjustments, real-time monitoring of contaminants, purification, and more. Not all water is the same. Accordingly, the electrolysis and purification approach has to be adaptable to the water that is being poured into the bottle.
Water not only delivers essential hydrogen for cellular energy production but also provides us with up to 20% of daily mineral requirements. With infrared and other LED spectroscopy, we can calculate the light absorption of, e.g., magnesium, calcium, potassium, etc., and provide a daily uptake value from the Bionic bottle. Currently, it is almost impossible to accurately track the daily mineral and trace mineral uptake. We are planning to offer more transparency because these minerals play a crucial role in maintaining optimal health.
