Production Technology: Using IoT to connect children from all over the world and to understand the physical and mental state of children around the world through a health big data profile, to enable anonymous communication, health tracking, communication with family and friends, and connections with psychotherapists and volunteers, to alleviate the decline in children's mental health as a result of the home quarantine or long-term home-study.
Design Challenge: Since the target group is a child, designers are always reminded to design from a child's point of view, hoping that the child can use the APP more intuitively and easily. When discussing with professionals in different fields, there are bound to be miscommunication situations, learning how to communicate with engineers, and cross-disciplinary collaboration is one of the trends of the future.
Research: Problem01.The impact of COVID-19 on the mental health of adolescents and youth.
Problem02.Parents take care of their children's negative emotions for a long time.
Problem03.Health return information is unreliable and the burden of health care workers.
Problem04.Children lack access to psychological expression.

Project Duration: Mind without Borders began thinking in August 2020, exploring user experience from September to November, and developing and designing mainstream visual frameworks for mobile devices, completed in Taiwan in November 2020.
