Description
The Baby Safe car seat concept is a patented, award winning and innovative reclining child car seat for infants from birth to four years. The seat is controlled simply and quickly at the touch of a wireless button from the driver's position, ensuring full control of the vehicle at all times, avoiding an increased potential for accidents on today's busy roads. It is the first car seat of its kind to address the problem of the 'Head flopped forward' position, which can occur while driving as a child sleeps, avoiding airway restriction and preventing positional asphyxia. With an increased risk of airway restriction, and possible neck injuries to a child left in this position, it is resolved without the problem of reclining manually, as with ALL current car seats on the market today. The manual rotation feature reduces awkward positioning for placing a child in the seat, preventing back problems for parents as the child grows.
Consultancy is required to design and develop an automated reclining child's car seat taking into consideration commercial objectives, users need and experience, competitive solutions and compliant to relevant regulations. The final product specification is going to require substantial virtual testing to prove the product is suitable with manufacturing data for further product commercialisation.
