Every year 100+ children die from heatstroke in cars. In 50% of heatstroke deaths, the child was forgotten in the car. Also, small hands can make big problems. There is 350% increased risk for serious injuries for children who unbuckle themselves.
Holmbergs DigitalSafety™ is the world’s first fully integrated digital safety solution for child car seats. By using Bluetooth technology, our eBuckle™ pairs with a phone app. If the child unbuckles an alarm sounds. If the child is left alone in the car, an alarm is sent to the phone and an SMS is sent to the emergency contacts with a GPS link.
