Now, before you start thinking about how this can even be possible or still happening, it is. In fact, there has already been 15 heatstroke deaths reported so far this year and we are barely in July.
That is why this boy’s invention is not only needed, but it’s brilliant and is something worth considering to put in every single car.
Meet 11-year-old Bishop Curry from McKinney, Texas who invented a device that could put an end to hot car deaths. Wouldn’t that be amazing?
Bishop is a young inventor who loves gardening and all things technology. He begin designing a device when he heard that a baby from his neighborhood died after being left in a hot car. After all, his goal was that he never wanted to hear of that happening again.
His invention is called ‘Oasis’ which is a device that will sit on a car seat and detect movement if a baby is left in the car. It will blow cool air on the baby and call emergency responders immediately.
For right now the additional business plans including marketing and production of the device are in the works but let’s hope this device hits the retail space sooner rather than later because I completely see this device being a lifesaver!

This is so cool! Love his creativity and that his dad could help him make it happen. It’s amazing what kids can do, and also so important to have something like this to protect little ones from getting stuck in a hot car. Love it!
