The AirBorn Baby Seat Keeps Parent and Child Protected During Flight

— November 14, 2013 — Autos
Anyone who has ever attempted to travel by jet with an infant will be all too familiar with the shortcomings of the current system. It certainly seems that no progress has been made towards ameliorating comfort and safety in the past generation. The AirBorn Baby Seat proposes an improvement for both kid and parent in the form of an adapted car seat that can be used in several ways.

In one position, the little chair can be fixed to the bulkhead wall in front of the first seat in a given cabin row. There is an option to lower it to the floor from here. The AirBorn Baby Seat can also be fixed across mom or dad's armrests or seat belted into its own chair. In an emergency situation, airbags can be inflated for shock absorption and to turn the contraption into a life jacket.
Trend Themes
1. Improved Infant Air Travel - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop more advanced infant seats specifically designed for air travel to enhance comfort and safety for both infants and parents.
2. Versatile Infant Car Seats - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create adaptable car seats that can be used in multiple positions and settings, providing convenience and flexibility for parents.
3. Emergency-ready Infant Seats - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design infant seats with integrated airbags for shock absorption, transforming them into life jackets during emergency situations.
Industry Implications
1. Airlines and Aviation - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with airlines to develop and implement improved infant seating solutions that enhance the travel experience for families.
2. Baby Products and Accessories - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Innovate in the baby product industry by designing versatile car seats that can be used in various scenarios, addressing the needs of on-the-go parents.
3. Safety and Emergency Equipment - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Partner with safety equipment manufacturers to integrate airbag technology into infant seats, providing an additional layer of protection during emergencies.
