OUR TEAM Name: Amy Cumiford Name: Logan Oizumi Name: Ray Regorgo Name: Jason Buis LAB 1 WRITE-UP Health Care Issue Sudden Infant Death Syndrome is an unknown phenomenon that occurs in infants under one year old. Although no baby monitor can claim the cure for this, it most certainly can prevent it. Suspected causes of SIDS most often stem from a baby’s sleeping conditions. The position of a baby while sleeping is crucial in ensuring easy breathing. A baby that sleeps on their stomach or on the side will have a harder time breathing ("Mayo Clinic SIDS" 2017). The monitor's goal would be to provide the upmost comfort for the child to ensure proper sleeping conditions to prevent causes of SIDS. For example, the monitor would be able to detect what position the child is sleeping in, if they were in a position that would make breathing difficult, it will alert the parents to adjust the child accordingly. Overheating is also a cause for SIDS, with this monitor, the proper temperature could be maintained or notify the parents whether the child is too warm ("Mayo Clinic SIDS" 2017). In addition, the device would be able to analyze the child's vital signs and detect any abnormalities in their heart rate, blood pressure, or breathing patterns, all factors that should be looked at closely especially for premature babies ("Don't Count on..." 2014). There is no guarantee that this device is a cure for SIDS, but it can guarantee a child's comfort which is important for their health.

When the baby lays on the pad the fiber optic cables bend, this bend causes a change in the amount of light that is let through them. At one end of the cable there is a photodiode that measures the amount of light. through the changes in light passed across the cables a computer is able to tell when the baby is moving. A second patent that we found uses a two mesh sheets that have opposing conductive paths that create a grid layout. At each intersection on this grid is a pressure sensor that is able to detect movement. There is a controller that is attached to the pad that is able to create a near real time pressure map of the pad so it is able to detect movement across the pad. A third patent we found has a technology to detect weather or not a child is on the pad. It does this by having pressure sensors placed strategically inside the pad that are able to detect the presence of a child. There is a controller that is able to change alarm modes and read the output of the sensors inside the pad. The controller also continuously monitors the status of the infant care device. Fundability Worksheet Scores Competitors 2 The competitors score is 2 because of the prominent variety of products that range from sensory sleeping mat to clothing, however the market is still developing as there is desired for clinical improvements on the sensors used. The placement of the sensor and type also adds variety to the types of products showing the range of the products made. Customer Validation 2 There is a high demand of concerned parents who want a product that can ensure their child's well being IP Position 3 Many products with the same concept have been approved and granted patents.
