This fall my daughter will be starting Kindergarten at a nearby public school. Having two working parents, she will be going to an afterschool program at the YMCA. In the back of my mind, I've always had that eerie feeling knowing that there will be a mid-day handoff of my little princess. What if something got weird during the chaos of all these little kids leaving school? What if... ? What if... ? ... it only takes once! It's easy for a protective parent to get their imagination running.

With fear comes project ideas.

My solution is a simple device that uses fingerprint recognition to check in with the parent. My device will be stationary at a destination (YMCA, after school program, etc.), identify the child, and through a Wi-Fi internet connection notify, their parent that their child has arrived or leaves the premises.

The future of parenting is knowing your child is SAFE every second of their life.
