The idea of winning the award for middle school students' research on safety knots to encourage travel originated from grandma: I hope the elderly will not be afraid to go out on the street
【08:05】Under the epidemic, the social and life problems faced by the elderly are beyond imagination, but as long as there is a heart, a "safety knot" can integrate the "green" and "senior", and can also encourage friends to travel with peace of mind.
The student team of the Hong Kong Lutheran Church Horizon College designed a mobile security device in the shape of a traditional "safety knot". It uses intelligent voice to alert the elderly to potential dangers on the road, and GPS navigation helps them "walk the road".
The responsible students pointed out that they hope to encourage the elderly to go out and reduce loneliness and depression, especially the visually impaired and cognitively impaired elderly.
"Peace Knot" won the HSBC Hong Kong Community Partnership Program Smart Community Hackathon 2021's Community Friendly Award last year. The representative of the organization said that compared with complex and advanced technology, student design is more life-like and can better respond to social needs. Creativity can also inspire the technology industry and social welfare organizations to update their services, thereby helping the social welfare sector to innovate.
