MOM
Low-cost alternative to traditional incubators.
In developing countries, childbirth is a high-risk affair—particularly if the baby’s born premature. In countries like the United States, we often put these babies in incubators until they’re able to make it on their own. But access to sophisticated equipment isn’t a given everywhere in the world. Incubators in particular are expensive, require constant electricity, and they can be complicated to operate and maintain. MOM is a inflatable incubator designed in hopes of giving developing countries a low-cost way to care for prematurely-born infants.
