Inventor: “Lounger Logger-ensuring a fairer sunbathe”(R)
Looking for pioneers/leaders/challengers/visionaries/early system adopters for Lounger Logger(TM) invention
Lounger Logger(TM): IoT-connected occupancy sensors in sunloungers linked to timer/clock to:
*Enable self-service lounger reservations in real-time via a device, preventing crowding/queuing at lounger terrace entrance infringing social-distancing/CV19-related restrictions.
*Send time-based notifications in occupancy to warn of dangers of UV/skin cancer
*Send time-based notifications in vacancy to eliminate “lounger hoggers” (unofficial extended reservations by an eg towel)
Everyone gets their fair share of the sun. No more sunrise sunlounger stampedes (getting up at silly-o’clock on holiday to reserve loungers with eg towels)
Automation ensures fair use, increases sustainability and accessibility for mobility-impaired. Increases reputation and compliance. Reduces claim risk/litigation under accessibility/equality law
