HOITO - INTELLIGENT BABY FORMULA MAKER

2019

Challenge

Unfortunately, breast milk is often unavailable or not enough for many mothers, thus these parents have to feed their children with different baby formulas. However, this process requires a lot of time and energy. Hoito offers a simple solution to this problem.

Solution

The product concept made with the the X-Plast design team. The award-winning intelligent baby formula maker is the right choice for parents of 0-3 year olds, as it makes everyday formula preparation simple and convenient. This device prepares the required formula always in the required amount and at the right temperature. Thanks to its innovative mixing solution, preparation takes only a few seconds, while the closed system guarantees perfect quality for every feeding. At the end of the process, the machine itself doesn't have to be washed and disinfected, only the baby bottle. As part of the integrated product development process, environmental considerations have also been prioritized, as both the materials used and the collection system of the formula containers reduce the environmental impact.

The device can be remotely controlled with the Hoito app. The app can store profiles of multiple children and the integrated artificial intelligence can help parents properly feed their babies. The product is the result of thorough research.

No more time spending with boiled water cooling. Hoito provides you disinfected water at the perfect temperature.  Hoito will learn your baby's habits and helps you to serve your baby's needs right on time. It will send you notification when feeding time is near, advise the next feeding amount, helps you to detect irregularities in your baby's eating and/or weight. Precisely measured formula and temperature controlled, filtered water is mixed in seconds. The mixing efficiency of the powerful whirl generated by the rotation of our revolutionary feeding bottle is similar to what is used high-end laboratory mixing equipment. The feeding bottle is rotated with the help of an electric motor, preparing a specified portion of formula as quietly as possible in seconds. 

With the design team in the design process this research has provided a solid base for technical design, the manufacturing technology and the choice of raw materials to be used in production. During the design phase, in-house 3D printing technologies (Polyjet, SLS, SLA, FDM) assisted the testing of the components. The high-tech 3D printing labor of X-Plast helped our product develpment process. Here we created a full size 3D printed and painted presentation model to represent our final design. The concept takes into account the hygiene and usage requirements for baby formula preparation. A quality design with a clean, extremely elegant and timeless character has been consciously chosen for the machine.
