The Second Stage

The two designs that Taiyyib chose to make were the inflatable vest
and the tracking device. Taiyyib had done an analysis of
why he had chosen these and why the others were inappropriate.

Inflatable vest
We found
that such a technology would in fact create more problems in the long run. If we
did chose this idea, there would be a lot of complaints if such a vest did not
deliver the goods, therefore the reason being of that it would not dominate the
market

• Inaccurate judgement
  
  
• Refuse to wear the vest due to it being irritable
  
  
• Amount of pressure to exert on the child
  
  
• Height and weight would need to be considered, so in fact would need to be
  custom made
  
  
• Unrealistic
  
  
• Can be done now with use of different technologies
  
  
• Complaints maybe suing the makersExperiencing
  violence

Tracking device
This is a much heated
debate in today’s society, although it may in fact help, it is prone to
disasters. Issues arising include

• Privacy invaded
  
• How would the device be implanted in the child
  
• Long term dangers occurring in the body
  
• Hackers could track the child and stalk them which will increase crime
  
• Allows would be hackers to learn a routine
  
• Computer glitches, failure rate is said to hover around 10-15% [Spooner]
  
• Strict guidelines would need to be imposed (e.g. how it should be used?
  Etc)

Speech recognition for disabled childrenThis
technology may not be correct 100% of the time, since research is still going
into it and it still will not allow for 100% speech recognition but it is fast
evolving.

Remote control spy bug
This technology is
already on the market and could potentially create risks, I have listed a few
drawbacks to say why we did not chose this approach

• Spy on important conversations
  
• Conversations can be disturbing
  
• Easy breakable
  
• A lot of technical issues may arise
  
• Experiencing violence
