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 success in Fukasawa's designs stems not only from a rigorous paring...
Brazilian designers are learning the importance of branding outside the apparel world.
