Papoose Study Model - The infant is restrained in the base to this papoose such that when carrying them they can be kept close to the parent, unlike existing car seat models where the baby is held to the side in a basket - Project Co-Owner: Joe Dougherty Chief Mentor and Adviser: Hy Zelkowitz _ Photography by Todd Vachon toddvachon.com

Swaddling Straps Study - A new type of strapping system was created to further increase the surface areas of restraints over the infant, further dispersing forces in the event of an accident - Project Co-Owner: Joe Dougherty Chief Mentor and Adviser: Hy Zelkowitz _ Photography by Todd Vachon toddvachon.com

The Sled Test - Used to conduct crash testing experiments on existing car seat models and design concept study mock ups. A device mocked up to demonstrate our installation design is featured strapped to the seat at the top - Project Co-Owner: Joe Dougherty Chief Mentor and Adviser: Hy Zelkowitz _ Photography by Todd Vachon toddvachon.com
