Problem Statement
Children in locked cars, especially in extreme temperatures, are in immediate danger if left alone. A product is needed to help these children by either removing them from the car or regulating the temperature in the car. The product must also be easily installable and easy to use, can be integrated directly into any vehicle, and prompts a fast response time from the user.

Solution
Our solution, Honeycomb, addresses the client's concerns and given design criteria. It is made up of a fan, sensors, an Arduino UNO, and a battery pack. It will sense when a child is in the vehicle and the temperature is above 30 degrees Celsius, then activate a cooling system that will regulate the temperature until it is manually reset and the child is safe.
 
Important Details
When duplicating Honeycomb, one may face the difficulty of generating similar code that assimilates the varying subsystems within our solution. Additionally, the assembly of the solution may face manufacturing errors as the system contains several wires and small parts. There were also difficulties procuring hardware as some of it was fragile and took time being delivered.
