Abstract

As science and technology has advancing to be part of our lives, most of everyday applications are now connected to each other virtually. By incorporating the IoT technology into child safety division, this part is worth investigating into. With hectic lifestyle, some parents have a tendency to leave their children inside the parked vehicle. The research is to design a notification or an alert to parents by using the most essential device that everyone has at least have one, smartphone. The design consists of two main parts which are safety pad and keychain alarm device. For the first part, the safety pad consists of load sensor to sense the presence of child inside the child car seat and notify parents through smartphone. For the second part, the keychain alarm devices use Radio Frequency (RF) transceiver that will act as backup safety features for children in case when the parents’ smartphone is missing or run out of battery. This device will activate the warning alarm when parents walking outside the RF signal range of the safety pad. The system was successfully used the most important tech gear and indirectly adds this BabyCare safety function to the smartphone.
