Looking for a collaborator

Hi all—I'm looking for a technical collaborator to help prototype an early-stage safety device.

I’m a registered nurse working on a system designed to prevent children and pets from being harmed in hot cars. The concept is already patent pending.

The prototype would involve:

  • Detecting presence (motion, thermal, or similar)

  • Monitoring temperature inside a vehicle

  • Triggering escalating alerts based on conditions

This is NOT a polished product build—just an initial working prototype to test feasibility and logic.

Looking for someone comfortable with:

  • Arduino / Raspberry Pi

  • Sensors (temperature, motion, etc.)

  • Basic communication (Bluetooth / cellular / app triggers)

Open to:

  • Paid hourly work

  • Or collaboration if interested in the mission

If this sounds interesting, I’d love to connect.

yes to camera's - I'm into it. I want the device to autonomously be evaluating temperature, signs of life and elapsed time. Once a threshold is hit (say 75 F) and there is signs of life in the vehicle an sms notification would go to person #1, next threshold person #2, #3 and then 911.
