I'm just a guy that got tired of hearing about babies dying & being seriously injured when left in the back seats of motor vehicles and decided to do something about it. I now have two patents, 7714737 and 8063788, and a working prototype of child’s car safety seat and alarm system that will prevent these deaths and injuries from happening. My goal is to produce in the U.S.A. an infant, toddler, b
ooster car seat that WILL PREVENT ALL DEATHS AND INJURIES caused from overheating and hypothermia when a child is left unattended in the back seats of motor vehicles. The 'FORGETMENOT' infant alarm car safety seat and alarm systems are the only devices that notify the driver both befor and after they leave the motor vehicle that a child is still in the vehicle. The 'FORGETMENOT' works whether the vehicle is on or off, is 100% portable, works in virtually every motor vehicle on the road today, installs easily without the use of tools, has multi seat and language capabilities, is completely unobtrusive, is a smart system giving the driver car seat information as needed, and has a non-threatening voice alarm. In addition the 'FORGETMENOT' comes in both an aftermarket and automobile manufacturer’s model. The manufacturers model works with there existing electronics and not only has a voice alarm it actuates on a delay mode the vehicles horn, lights, power locks, windows and 'ONSTAR' type systems to further secure the childs safety. REMEMBER YOU CAN'T FORGET WITH A 'FORGETMENOT. At this point in time most every state in the country has made leaving a child unattended in a motor vehicle a felony. Palm Beach County has mandated that all day care vehicles of six passengers or more be equipped with an alarm system to prevent leaving a child unatteded in the vehicle. It is up for a vote in the state senate. The next logical step is to make it mandatory in passenger vehicles. When this happens all seat manufacturers will have to adapt their products to Florida law. Because of the NHTSA acceptability and patent protected way my seat and alarm system integrates through the vehicles driver seat belt electronics and mechanics other car seat and automobile manufacturers would have to deal with 'Forget Me Not'.
