Three more unique gadgets from CES 2016. 

Innovative Technology Powers the 4Moms Self Installing Robotic Car Seat

 

At CES 2016, 4moms launched their self-installing car seat. Using robotics technology and advanced sensors, the 4moms self-installing car seat auto-levels, auto-tensions, and continuously monitors its status, giving parents the peace of mind that the seat is installed correctly during every car ride. “When installed correctly, car seats save lives. Yet four out of five times they’re not, and there’s no easy way to check,” explained Rob Daley, CEO and co-founder of 4moms. “That’s a serious problem, and we believed it had to get better. We have developed a car seat that not only talks you through the installation process and verifies that the seat is installed correctly, it also continuously monitors the status of the seat. When the parent connects the included carrier to the base they receive verbal and visual confirmation that the car seat is installed correctly and continuous monitoring is turned on. The seat will notify parents if anything is amiss, like a disconnected LATCH or loss of tension, and provide guidance on how to correct. Most premium car seats on the market only have a gravity ball within the base, which require the parent to move their vehicle to level ground for a correct installation. The 4moms self-installing car seat app experience also includes a VIN capture, which enables it to recommend a specific seat position for installation based on the vehicle make and model. There's more info in the CES video I shot and at the company website.
