LONDON: Israeli child safety tech startup Babyark has come up with a baby seat it claims is the world’s safest car seat.
Designed by Frank Stephenson, the product known by the same name as the company, is said to be designed and engineered to meet the highest standards of safety using unique impact absorbing technology, advanced materials including carbon fibres and a connected sensor system.
Babyark said the design was inspired by the structural integrity and simplicity of an egg and is shaped like a pod.
Babyark is built using military grade, energy-absorbing technology and carbon fibre frame, the seat’s “SafeCoil” steel-based shock absorption system gently slows the seat forward momentum at a safe and controlled rate.
The seat is also made with a unique “BioArk” side impact protection, biomimicking the woodpecker’s unique plate-like bone natural protection system.
Accelerometers and gyroscopes within the seat can record the force of any crash and notify owners whether the seat can be reused.
An integrated 14 sensors in the seat’s base, constantly monitor a wide range of parameters. Babyark signals to the caregiver if the seat is properly installed, and in addition via smartphone app it signals to the caregiver if the child passenger is properly buckled.
Stephenson is responsible for the design of some of the most iconic automotive vehicles including BMWs, Ferraris, Maseratis, McLarens, MINI and Fiat 500 models.
