The story of DH2 begins with a team assignment for a mandatory U of C Biomedical Engineering graduate course. The goal was to create a solution for an integrative platform in which automobiles can monitor health/alert status in drivers and respond appropriately. Founder, Chantelle Marie Anderson, was a proponent of the Double-Diamond Model of Design after taking an Entrepreneurship & Innovation course and encouraged her team to use complete the in-depth design thinking processes to tackle their assignment. Surprisingly, they agreed! Away the team went, rigorously working through the steps week after week, going from Research to Identifying Root Problems to Potential Change Ideas all the way to their Value Proposition: "Our inexpensive driving app helps reduce the number of pre-existing medical condition related automobile accidents and fatalities by monitoring driver health and assists in contacting medical responders in emergencies."

The team wrapped up their assignment with a prototype by way of a video demonstrating their solution in action. Founder, Chantelle Marie Anderson, thought the solution had potential and didn’t want to stop there. She pitched her idea at the 2022 Innovation 4 Health Hackathon (I4H), where she received enthusiastic interest in developing a functional prototype. Currently, her and her new I4H team are working towards bringing their solution to market to help the aging population live their best lives. They hope to give seniors the freedom and independence they desire while keeping everyone safe on the road.
