5 Phases is the first bottle-feeding system to introduce an interchangeable glass insert. The unique design kept the eco-mom in mind providing the healthful benefits of glass and the protection of BPA free plastic, all while reducing the carbon footprint on the environment. The "grow with me" feeding system truly makes the bottles the most eco-friendly baby bottle-feeding system out there.

“I took a course about comics to find out if it's possible to create a short comic that is readable for people without eyesight. The reader should be able to follow and explore the story through touching the paper. I wanted to make a medium accessible to more people”.

Paulo lost his legs movement, and, gradually the disease affected his respiratory system. Since then, he depends on machines to stay alive.

From his hospital bed, Paulo learned how to read, write, finished his highchool and learned a lot about computers and software. We won several devices, made friends and invented his own machines.

Being a cinema lover, Paulo started working on an animated series. That’s how he created “The Adventures of Leca and His Friends”, an animated series that features Paulo’s own adventures in the hospital.

Jeri Burtchell, Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patient and co-developer of Stay Calm, says the app is “like having a lucky rabbit’s foot in my pocket.”

Jeri collaborated with Matt Winslow, of Conversant Health, on a prototype of Stay Calm, which helps patients manage their stress through diet, meditation and yoga.

The Parkers' journey as entrepreneurs began when their first child, Charlotte, was an infant. Charlotte would not sleep through the night without being swaddled and had suddenly become uncomfortable sleeping in her blanket. The Parkers cycled through available sleep sacks, but with little success. Exhausted, Stephanie decided to take matters into her own hands, creating the Zipadee-Zip, a wearable blanket that allows babies to transition out of the swaddle without waking themselves up or allowing them to scratch themselves.

He noticed that some relaxing sounds would start them yawning and they would soon doze off. So Matthew started recording the gentle sounds of waves crashing, rain falling onto a car roof and even a cat purring.

And whenever the twins were wide awake he would play one of the sounds to send them off.

Matthew said: "I looked on the iPhone App Store for something to help them doze off but couldn’t find anything. So I created my own app called White Noise Ambience".

Kinnane used a head mouse to create the puzzle game, which required him to laboriously swing his head back-and-forth in order to type. Kinnane created Cube Cyclops to increase awareness of ALS and to offset the enormous cost of his care.

The app creator originally designed the game in an Excel worksheet using the programming language Visual Basic for Microsoft applications.

Chris Peacock, British inventor, created the handSteady, an ergonomic cup to help people with health conditions (such as tremor, joint pain and Parkinson’s disease) to have their drinks without undergoing a nerve-wracking, socially-awkward challenge.

Peacock had the idea for handSteady when a member of his family was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. At the time, he foresaw how drinking with a cup would one day become a burdensome task for his relative. As an inventor whose credentials include a stint at IBM, he realized he had the skills to create a solution.

Gonzales, a management entrepreneurship graduate student, and Bob Merriman founded Force Impact Technology and recently patented the FIT Guard, a mouthguard that visually displays the impact an athlete endures and indicates the probability of having a concussion.

The clothing is consciously designed without tags, seams, zippers, laces and buttons in breathable performance wear fabrics. It is also double-sided and equally meted at the crotch, seat and/or neckline, eliminating the opportunity for these kids to put anything on backwards or inside out. Most thought provoking, however, is the hidden compartment sewn into the clothing, which allows for optional GPS tracking and other monitoring devices.

The creation is called Runa Tech, two Kichwa words meaning “human” and “of technology,” and is a suit for blind people. Inspired by a bat’s mobility, Condo said the suit uses ultrasonic sensors that emit vibrations to direct a person around objects. The suit has seven sensors total, which are located around the waist, down the arms and legs and across the shoulders.

Pakstaite first came up with the idea for the Bump Mark while working on a project for the Guide Dogs for the Blind Association, a British charity that helps the visually impaired. For six months, she worked on ideas to improve public transportation for the blind and spent much of her time talking with them about daily challenges they faced.

The Bump Mark, Pakstaite’s award-winning creation, is a tactile expiration label that accurately detects when food has gone bad. It was created as her final year project at Brunel University in London.

“It’s easy to get into your appointment, start talking with the doctor and then completely forget what you intended to ask,” says Ahlstrom. “Then you have to wait a few weeks or months for another visit to get answers to critical questions.”

The student said she came up with the idea as she was taking care of her grandmother, a diabetic with high blood pressure and heart disease.

Her grandmother needed constant attention, monitoring of her blood sugar and blood pressure. That is when she decided to invent a device to perform all these tasks together and alert the patient of any abnormalities.

Once the watch is put on, it will emit certain sounds and turn different colors based on the condition of the patient. For example, red indicates that the patient should be concerned while green is normal.

“My second baby was way messier than my first. She’s really cute, but she’s stinky and she’s dirty and she makes huge messes in the crib,” Ms. Miner said.

“Being 40 and 5’2” I was dealing with sleep deprivation and it was kicking me in the butt. I was having a hard time getting up a few times a night to burp her, feed her change her, then having to clean that crib out was like a nightmare for me.”

The battery-powered device, built from Legos, was created after the girls spoke with a librarian who told them some people have difficulty turning the pages of books, Tulsa World reported. The troop, who were the youngest inventors at the fair, then thought of people with arthritis or who are paralyzed and wanted to create an invention that would help them.

But when he showed up at the McDonalds on Groenplaats, staff told him those “accessible” restrooms were in fact on the first floor. And there was no elevator. “First, it was a little baffling that the information was incorrect. Second, of course it was frustrating,” he says. “And third, it gave me the idea that I needed to find something that would help me”.

The programmable pill dispenser involves a smart card and a pill dispenser. The PillAid was developed during her final year studying design at London’s Brunel University. The main purpose is to help the elderly.

“It’s a programmable pill dispenser and medicated management system for elderly people, aimed to improve communication between all groups involved in the process — including GPs (general practitioners), hospital doctors, pharmacists, the patients themselves and caregivers,” she told CNN.

Ruchi Pandya, high school student, 18, created a biosensor that can save lives by providing an up to 72-hour warning of an impending heart attack.
Using small carbon nanofibers, Pandya created a nanotechnology-based biosensor for cardiac health diagnostics. This means that this invention, a square, 1-centimenter, could eventually save lives by providing an up to 72-hour warning of an impending heart attack.

This misdiagnosis, which led to Isabel nearly losing her young life, spawned a 14-year project to help thousands of other patients, at risk of being wrongly diagnosed.

Isabel nearly died as the infection invaded her tiny body. Thanks to quick action taken by doctors at St Mary's Hospital in Paddington, London, her life was saved.

Rather than seeking financial recompense for what happened, as soon as the hospital apologized, her parents were overwhelmed by a sense of wanting to help.
