While conversing to my friend's father about my earlier work on continuous ECG monitoring who served as Pediatric specialist at Stanley Medical, Chennai.
He inquired if I could solve the problem of post discharge continuous monitoring of prematurely born children. He further explained the infant's increased susceptibility to pathogens post discharge and the importance of care.

I was shocked to hear that in many primary healthcare centres in rural areas use incandacent bulbs for warming the child resulting in accidental burns.
That spurred me to action and I contacted a friend who is a designer to get a few sketches done.
