The invention discloses a measurement and control communication cup based on a distance-limited infrared recognition principle. Cups are important tools in daily communicative activities of people; in the current Internet-of-Things+ age, the traditional temperature-measuring, liquid-measuring or light-emitting-displaying cups can not meet the requirements of consumers; cups with the personal information exchanging function can achieve the brand new communication function, and seamless exchanging of personal interested information including the identity information between cup holders can be achieved. The measurement and control communication cup based on the distance-limited infrared recognition principle is mainly composed of a distance-limited infrared light-receiving-emitting sensor, a cup control circuit with a selective switch, a wireless communication device, a battery, a power line, signal lines and a cup body. The cup and an environment communication unit can form a complete communication cup system. As the measurement and control communication cup based on the distance-limited infrared receiving-emitting principle is simple in structure and can be matched with a mobile phone, an Internet wireless router or a main-platform base station environment communication unit, information exchanging between the cup holders can be controllably and reliably achieved, and luster is added to smart living.
