The Intelligent First Aid Kit by Max Gold

Making first aid guidance easier than ever, The Intelligent First Aid Kit improves on the standard box of mystery tubes and ointments. The award-winning new product comes not only equipped with individually wrapped packs of medical supplies but with step-by-step audio instructions on how to treat a range of injuries.The idea is simple: combine the necessary supplies with audio technology. The result is comprehensive yet extremely accessible.

Designed by medical and educational experts to help people with little to no first aid training, every feature and functions seems as if the makers thought it through. In addition to the audio aid, color-coding and illustrations help differentiate packages and outline responses to more common ailments likefrost bite, asthma and choking, among others—especially handy when response time is important. The kit also comes with a book light/flashlight in case of injury at night.

Check out the audio sample of instructions on how to treat severe bleeding for an example.

A good idea for home, work or travel, purchase the Intelligent First Aid kit for $130 from the online shop.

The first purifier to get both an...
BRΙΕFC(eramic)ACE
Although business documents are swiftly transitioning from paper to digital, there's still room for innovative briefcase design. Case in point, Alexandros Stasinopoulos's high-tech concept for BRΙΕFC(eramic)ACE. Though clumsily titled, the case is a sleek, hardshell container that makes extensive use of Zirconium Oxide, an extremely rigid though rarely utilized form of ceramic. The project looks to reconcile the primitive nature of ceramics (think traditional...
