If we can have one for our car, one for our locker and one for our home, why not one for the baby? New ‘baby alarms’ are making waves in Scandinavian hospitals following a series of infant kidnappings. In the past few months, Norway had been a mother's nightmare as hospital personnel and parents constantly feared a lurking child-lifter in the premises. To put an end to this epidemic, doctors have suggested the use of burglar alarms on babies which trigger a high security mechanism as soon as they beep.
This innovation works on the same principle as a regular burglar alarm except that instead of being hooked on a wall, it is fastened to the ankle of a baby. The other connecting half of the device is tied to the mother's wrist. Whenever mom wanders too far away or someone tries to temper with the device (or the baby), the alarm goes off. As soon as it does, all the doors auto-lock and elevators come to a halt! That looks like the most extreme measure to discourage cradle predators.
While we don't have baby kidnappings at such a magnitude everywhere, this device could be used as a pet security system while going out on leash-less walks and picnics.

防贼之心不可无

如果我们可以给自己的车、房、柜安装防盗装置，那为何不也为自己的小孩装一个呢？发生一连串盗婴事件后，新“婴儿报警装置”席卷斯堪的纳维亚医院。在过去几个月里，医院职工和父母对潜伏于某处的盗婴贼惴惴不安，挪威已然成为了妈妈们的梦魇。为此，医生们推荐在婴儿身上安装报警器，报警器一响就会引发戒备森严的安全机制。
这一创造性的发明其原理与普通的防盗装置是一样的，唯一的不同在于，它不是挂在墙上而是系在婴儿的脚踝上。而另一半装置是系在妈妈的手腕上。只要装置一响，所有大门自动上锁，电梯自动停止！这看起来是挫败“摇篮捕猎者”的最佳方法。
当然，不可能所有的地方都像斯堪的纳维亚盗婴事件频繁。这种装置还可以在你遛狗、野餐时作为宠物的保镖。
