At-home first aid kits are typically just a bunch of bandages, gauzes, and other products stuffed into a little box. Yet, without knowing how to properly use these tools, the first aid kits may end up providing little help in emergency situations. We may soon see a smart aid kit hit the market from a company called 19Labs, based in Menlo Park, California.
The GALE first aid kit features a number of compartments that organize the medical supplies, and a touchscreen display on the inside cover is used to access instructions on how to perform different procedures. These include cuts, burns, concussions, fractures, and a bunch of other common situations that can strike anyone at home. There are tools like a thermometer and pulse oximeter included and others can be ordered as needed.
