SR-2238 Silicon Rubber/Fabric - Design Challenge
- There are 3 main challenges. Firstly, it's to differentiate it from the regular baby monitor, so we tried to think from a baby’s perspective, including more immersive experience through a VR converting function. The second challenge is when we made the functional model. It was hard to cast a tiny model with comparable sophisticated electronic components. The third challenge is the difficulties of finding an appropriate material to cast the model. It has to be a baby-child friendly material should be soft enough to be touched by an infant baby. Also hard enough to be held in baby’s clothes.
- Research
- Childhood Amnesia, also called infantile amnesia, is the inability of adults to retrieve episodic memories, which are memories of specific events, such as times, places, associated emotionally and other contexts like who, what, when, and where, before the age of 3 years old.
- Inspiration
- The name Nemoo is inspired by the movie Finding Dory. Dory suffers from memory loss every 10 seconds. With help from her friend Nemo, Dory finds her lost memory and embarks on an epic adventure to find her parents. Nemoo helps users retrieve their early memories. The package looks like a dairy book. Nemoo uses its package for charging and storing which can be cherished and stored in the bookshelf for a long time.
- Project Duration
- This project started and ended in San Francisco in 4 months.
- Operation Flow
- By simply attaching Nemoo to baby's hats, it can record the child’s memory from the baby’s perspective. When parents discover a memorable moment, the parent can say the trigger word to start recording. Through the Bluetooth connection, the NEMOO mobile app can remotely manage the settings and storage. With the NEMOO app, the child’s footage is transferred to the parent's phone and automatically transformed into a memorable VR story. It also can connect more than two Nemoo devices at the same time.
