The purpose of the project has been to offer parents an easier everyday life with the help of research, where they can follow their child's growth curve in a new and innovative way. The whole project resulted in a simple product consisting of a measuring tool connected with a smartphone application where the measurement parameters of weight, length and waist measurement will be visualized in an educational way. With a new way of keeping track of growth parents will never again have to consider centimeters and kilograms, but at the same time be aware of unhealthy patterns. The product is called VELOX and offers customer and user convenience, time saving, simplicity and risk reduction during growth. The vision is to offer the product as a free kit for all families with children through the child healthcare centers.
