This bluetooth speaker, clock, lamp, and forecast system combines routine technology into a sleek home appliance. During an emergency, you can flip Readi over to access an FM radio, a built-in walkie talkie, and a pre-programed radio service that plays weather updates with the press of a button. Our research enforced observations that people treat emergency equipment as distinct items and delay purchasing them until disasters actually strike. Readi was designed to improve disaster-preparation within a homes routine activities, leveraging smart home technologies to help people plan for future challenges.
