Abstract: A temperature-controlled cup holder is disclosed. The temperature-controlled cup holder can comprise a conducting inner layer, a conducting outer layer, a middle layer, a control system, and a control device. The conducting inner layer can be capable of mounting a cup. The middle layer can be in between the conducting inner layer and the conducting outer layer. The middle layer can comprise a first side and a second side. The middle layer can further comprise a first thermoelectric network comprising one or more first thermoelectric coolers. Each of the one or more first thermoelectric coolers can comprise a hot side. The hot sides can each be oriented to be facing the first side. The control system can control the activation of the first thermoelectric network. The control device can be connected to the control system operable to give information related to a preferred temperature setting.
