Overview

The purpose of this project was to design a child’s safety car seat with Internet of Things capabilities and a cooling system that activates in the case of an emergency. It is comprised of a network of sensors, a wireless notification system, and a cooling system.

How Does It Work

The Smart Car Seat is initially set up using a smartphone application where the user inputs their phone number. The number is saved to an SD card and is read by the GSM module when it sends the text messages. If the infrared thermometers read a critical temperature and the force sensitive resistors detect someone, the cooling system will turn on and a text message will be sent to the phone number on file.
