What is Dream Pod

Project Dream Pod is developing a sleeping bassinet that will reduce the risk of Sudden Unexpected Death in Infancy (SUDI), aiming to mitigate the situational inequality that many infants face. The key work being done by the project includes identifying risks that relate to current SUDI, which infants are affected by these risks, and how to reduce them. Simultaneously, we are seeking to create a solution that is both user friendly and culturally appropriate. The project comprises three subteams: validation, business, and compliance.

Validation subteam

The Validation sub-team is responsible for prototyping the Dream Pod and ensuring that it meets all regulatory, performance, and safety standards before it is manufactured for market.

  • We are currently seeking second or third year students who are passionate about medical technology innovation and have experience with Solidworks and CAD. Mechanical, mechatronic, and material engineering students are strongly encouraged to apply. 

Business subteam 

The Business sub-team is responsible for ensuring that the Dream Pod has a strong value proposition and is aligned with the target community's needs. It is also primarily responsible for scaling the Dream Pod into a self-sustaining company.

  • We are currently seeking students across all year levels who are passionate about medical technology innovation and have an interest in business. Students with a background in commerce, law and/or engineering are ideal!

Compliance subteam 

The Compliance sub-team is responsible for assessing and analysing the regulatory, performance, and safety standards to ensure that the Dream Pod complies with all the requirements during its development.

  • We are currently not seeking any recruits at this point of time.
