The Wow Moment
You're walking your baby on a sunny day and suddenly the stroller's palm canopy silently rotates to block the exact angle of incoming UV rays while a barely-visible mist floats down—your phone buzzes: 'UV protection activated, safe for next 47 minutes.' You realize you never had to stop, dig through your bag, or worry about whether your baby is protected.
