IDEATE

IDEA #1: Chameleon Car Seat

As the car gets hotter, the child’s car seat will change into a brighter color. There could be a cooling system placed in the car seat if the car gets too hot.

Analysis

In what way is this solution a product or a repeatable service?

  • This is both a product and repeatable service because it is for everyday use and can be used by anyone. 

Can this be completed in 6 weeks?

Can this be completed in 6 weeks?

  • I would need to contact an expert that could give me knowledge on how to accomplish this task. I do not think I can complete this in 6 weeks. 

Principle #1: Simplicity

  • Is simple because the functions are already embedded into the car seat.

Principle #2: Portable

  • Is portable because it is just another car seat with unique features and abilities. 

Principle #3: Attention grabbing/Alerting

  • The car seat changes colors to grab a bystander's attention that there is a baby in the car.

Principle #4: Quick

  • Changes color and activates cooling system as soon as the car's temperature is beyond normal.

Idea #2: Routine Tracker

A device that can track the activity and time duration of when you put a child in a car seat (ex: taking a child to daycare everyday in the morning). If not following the routine, alarm will beep to alert the parent.

In what way is this solution a product or a repeatable service?

  • This is both a product and repeatable service because it is for everyday use and can be used by anyone.

Can this be completed in 6 weeks?

  • I would have to contact an expert in technology but this could be done in 6 weeks.

Principle #1: Simplicity

  • Is simple because it is also small and easy to use.

Principle #2: Portable

  • Is portable because the routine tracker can be attached and detached from the car seat.

Principle #3: Attention grabbing/Alerting

  • It beeps to let the parent know that they are not following their routine.

Principle #4: Quick

  • Beeps as soon as the parent is not following the daily routine.

IDEA #3: light alert

There could be a portable light bulb placed on the top of a car. There is also a temperature detector on the child’s car seat. If the car gets too hot, the light bulb will light up and sound an alarm. An alert will go directly to the parent’s phone and also alert bystanders that there is a baby in a hot car.

Principle #3: Attention grabbing/Alerting

  • It lights up and beeps to alert a bystander's attention that there is a baby in the car. It also alerts the parents and 911.

Principle #4: Quick

  • Lights up and alerts bystanders as soon as car's temperature is beyond normal.
