[Evenflo's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evenflo-home-collection) latest infant car seat upgrades its usual safety measures by combating heat stroke. This new car seat is equipped with several safety features that will ensure the safest ride for your little one.

Countless babies have fallen prey to terrible heat strokes due to being forgotten or unintentionally left in the car. To avoid such an awful circumstance, Evenflo created an infant car seat with advanced sensor safe technology. Using sensors, wireless technology and an audible alarm, this infant car seat protects babies from a terrible fate.

The Evenflo car seat features a [safety strap](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multiadaptive-safety-belt) that is embedded with a wireless receiver. This receiver will trigger an alarm if the car is locked and the straps are still buckled -- allowing drivers to be aware of the forgotten child inside of their vehicle.
