车内中暑报警器

The Washington Post: The unthinkable keeps happening. The 18th hot car death of the year was recorded last week — on the same day that a national public service campaign kicked off to warn parents about the dangers of leaving kids in hot cars.

One New Mexico teenager's invention might someday prevent such deaths.

Alissa Chavez, a 17-year-old from Albuquerque, said she has designed a car-seat alarm system called "Hot Seat" that might prevent people from accidentally leaving young children in cars. She's now trying to raise money to build a prototype.
