We believed the previous concept was too restricted and didn't accommodate normal human 'interaction'. Therefore, we changed the concept to create a better understanding of children; how they play and move. The device is to provide both feedback to the child and parent/carer.
Explaining the Diagram:
Children learn through playing, moving around and generally interacting with their environment. This presents the usual predicament for parents of children running around, injuring themselves. Another problem is children learning public etiquette but at the same time alerting parents or carers about a potential problem
The concepts presents a way to ensure that children move around safely and learn as well as ensuring they don't make too much noise, a general problem when children are in public. Feedback comes from a wristband device that the child wears. It indicates to the child that they are moving too fast and are moving away from their parent/carer. It also alerts the child that they are making too much noise or alerting them that their distress has been noted.
The sound input has a dual effect. If a child is in distress, it will immediately return feedback to the carer, alerting them to the problem.
