Final Project (prototyping)

Seung Jun and I are partners for the final project. We are both Asian and we decided to come feature some Asian custom in our project. We are going to feature a traditional Korean tea ceremony.
We will note that this ceremony is a casual affair. There are few rituals. Rather the point is to relax, converse freely and enjoy beverages and snacks.
Our project will include a table with four cups at each corner. An LCD will be installed in the middle of the tea table. When people remove a cup or place it back on the table, some fact about the tea ceremony will appear in the LCD.
We will use FSR sensors for the cups. However, this raises the problem of accurately setting up the codes to interact with the cups. There might be confusion if the cup is passed between people, rather than being removed once and then placed back by the same person.
