A reusable and inexpensive baby wrap incubator could help save the lives of premature babies born in impoverished nations. The warmer is consists of a wax filled pouch equipped with a heating unit. The heated pouch is placed in the wrap, where it can keep the infant warm for at least 4 hours.

My idea is to create mobile application which will help children with autism to develop communication skills. The application will be based on Picture Exchange Communication System, i.e. it will help children to build messages from pictures and send them to each other. It will also contain a vocabulary consisting of words learnt by a child. The vocabulary could be easily updated as well as new pictures could be added to the application.

The new system will help absent-minded parents remember not to leave their child in their car. It will include a pad that will slip into the child's safety seat and an alarm unit that will fit on a key ring. The system will activate when the child in placed in the safety seat, and will sound an alarm if the caregiver walks more than 15 feet from the occupied safety seat. It is supposed that the system will significantly reduce the actual, though slight, chance of a sleeping...

I suggest creating a set for children with which they will be able to create 3D images. It will include special sheets of paper, felt pens and stereo glasses. It will be really cool if felt pens do for drawing on metal, glass and plastic as well.

Why not create a super simple cell phone for children and seniors to make an emergency call for help with the push of a single button? It will be possible to program the device to call parents, or any other designated emergency contact and send emails with GPS data pinpointing the caller's location. In addition, such cell phone could have an alarm to help responders locate the person in need of help.

The smart baby monitor will let parents keep an eye and ear on their baby with their iOS device. The monitor will include a 3-megapixel camera built into to its hinged design, which will allow it to be easily positioned. The camera will automatically switch to infrared LED's in dim light, will include a zoom function, and will alert parents if the room temperature and humidity move out of normal range. Parents can also hear and speak to the infant through the monitor's two...

Why not create a driving monitor which will provide new teen drivers with verbal comments to help bring attention to driving errors? The monitor is to be wired to the car's onboard computer and equipped with an accelerometer and a GPS. It will alert the driver to aggressive driving, such as sudden turning or braking, and significant speeding. It will also disable mobile phones while the car is in motion. It could be also possible for parents to be notified of their teen's...

How to teach your child to tie shoelaces? My idea is to create small devices which will be attached to the shoelaces and give instructions to a child. The device will help the child to master shoelaces tying quickly and in playing form.

The idea is to develop a computer system that could help to reduce the amount of infant deaths due to SIDS. The system will consist of a standard video camera and computer that will run special software. The camera will monitor the baby's skin tone, which changes color when heart rate decreases suddenly, and an algorithm in the software will estimate the baby's pulse. If the pulse slows down dramatically, an alarm will sound and wake up both the baby and the parents. A sudden...

A new bike will be designed to help toddlers develop motor skills by providing a more stable ride. The bike will be propelled through the motion of two large spheres supported by stabilizing balls, which will allow the bike to move in any direction without falling over. The spheres can also be removed and replaced with more traditional wheels to challenge developing skills.
