Intelligent First Aid Kit
I love it! A first aid kit that doesn’t just provide the supplies, it also supplies the instructions. Even better, everything is bundled by injury or illness type, so that instead of putting the burden on the [panic-stricken] user to figure out what to look for, all he has to do is reference the problem and follow the instructions. Yet better, those instructions are offered in audio format, as well.
The kit is separated into individually labeled and color-coded injury packs so the user has all the supplies and easy to follow instructions for managing a specific injury. The audio module in each injury card takes the technology a step further. By the squeeze of a button, the module narrates step-by-step instructions to manage the injury, pausing and repeating when necessary for accurate response.
The case includes a guidebook, with first aid instructions for additional medical emergencies, such as choking, frost bite, heatstroke, asthma. Also included is a product manual with audio instructions, a book light/flashlight and a shoulder strap. (from the Intelligent First Aid site)
