Trick people into ethical behavior

Idea description:

How much does your behavior impact the planet? See for yourself and tend to your own little pet planet earth. We collect a mixture of data from IOT devices and external APIs, as well as manual input.

The data is then interpreted to form simplified scores which will trigger events on your little planet. Optimize that score to have plastic free oceans, clean air, a thriving animal population and lush forests.

For additional motivation, we utilize peer pressure and public shaming. Challenge your friends to reach a certain score or justify why “piggeldi” had to die for craving for hamburgers

RoboBob for Granny Rose <3

Idea description:

The older people get during their lives, the more risks they are facing. Social isolation, reduced mobility and falls/injuries are increasing. Bob is a smart vacuum cleaner which combines an intelligent box with the cleaner and gives him more main functions. He serves as vacuum cleaner, Item finder, health assistant and security guard. Those functions can be monitored and controlled through a mobile application. While vacuum cleaning, the camera of the box is collecting data, so Bob knows where certain objects in the house can be found. Bob will be living with the elderly person and his/her family uses the application to ensure he/she is fine. Also if he/she falls or gets injured, Bob recognizes it and sends a push notification to the phone of the family or even calls the hospital with an emergency call if needed. Bob can be included in the Bosch ecosystem, e.g. health care, service solutions and smart home services.
