The conceptual ROOTS Solar Scale has been designed by Craig McGarrell as a solution for remote communities to help them support the health of infants and combat against neonatal deaths. The scale is characterized by its compact, solar-powered construction that can be easily toted between locations thanks to its backpack-style carrier on the bottom section. The interior weighing bowl will offer a safe space for an infant to be placed to track their weight, which could help communities keep vulnerable infants supported during a critical period.
The conceptual ROOTS Solar Scale offers a more convenient, portable alternative to existing scales that are oftentimes too heavy to relocate and that could be offering inaccurate readings. The digital aspect of the scale ensures an optimal reading, while the solar-powered functionality allows for use virtually anywhere.
