Inspiration

Thermal stress related to excessive insulation from bedding and clothing has been postulated to be associated with sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS).

What it does

As a mother or care giver, you need to constantly notify surrounding temperature and measure your child’s temperature to provide timely care and intervention for their clothing.

Convention thermometers cannot do this effectively. So, we introduced DressWiser to reduce your stress and enhance temperature comfort for your child.

DressWiser helps you monitor, and record your child’s temperature and surrounding temperature continuously. We will provide customer service to call you personally to alert you when the fever spikes or the temperature crosses the set threshold (Too cold or too hot for your child).

Alerts can also be sent to any phone over Internet, making our product truly a smart device in the Internet of Things.

Features of DressWiser

  • Monitor the surrounding temperature and body temperature of child
  • Clothing suggestion for infant and child
  • Peaceful Sleep
  • Timely intervention and care
  • Effective caring through sharing of data
  • Better diagnosis, and hence right treatment

How is DressWiser different from other digital thermometers?

It’s not just a thermometer. It’s a 24 hours continuous monitoring system. It uses one of the-state-of-the-art thermal sensor for accurate measurement of surrounding temperature and body temperature of child.

The device pairs up with your mobile phone, and intelligently sounds an alert based on the progress of the fever.

How I built it

DressWiser is built on LeptonModule in Raspberry-pi with python language. We also 3D printed a beautiful case for the raspberry pi camera and Lepton Module of Flir.
