Abstract: The James Alert Car Seat is an alarm system for a baby seat that allows a user to activate a monitoring unit by simply fastening a child into a car seat. A set of wireless alert units attached to a set of keys or other convenient object will vibrate or beep if the user moves further than a preset distance from the vehicle, preventing a user from accidentally leaving a child in a car seat. The James Alert Car Seat is comprised of a conventional infant car seat equipped with a plastic base, padded fabric cover, nylon safety straps with a metal buckle fastening system, a sensor switch located on the metal buckle fastening system that activates and deactivates the seat's monitor system, and a wireless alert unit capable of receiving a signal from the seat's monitor system.
