Prototype EvoScan

Doctors often complain that children's school bags these days are far too heavy for their body size and can cause serious posture problems. Also, students often have problems organizing themselves for each school day. A smart backpack would aim to remedy the situation. Making use of the widespread digitization of class schedules, the EvoScan backpack would receive daily updates on what the student needs for each class, via a built-in minicomputer. Sensors would scan books and teaching materials equipped with chips and match them with information from the owner’s cell phone. Different colored LED lights would show students if the schoolbag is packed correctly, before they head to school. The system would be fully and sustainably powered by solar energy and would have a port for using excess energy to charge the cell phone. This invention could reduce the morning stress in many families and be a great help particularly  for younger children to become more independent.
