We might never know when the disaster, especially nature disaster, will strike. Tsunami, hurricane, fire, etc. Anything can happen, even at the time that we’ve never imagined of. That’s why something like this USB drive from YAK Biotech Solutions is quite handy.

Named YAK Alert Drive, this is not just a normal portable disk storage. As you see from the image above, this device can be worn on your wrist like a bracelet. Now once you fill out your emergency contact, medical notes and history on the disk, incase anything happen to you, people can quickly give a first-aid treatment based on the data on the disk.

Well, as long as they have a laptop, AND they figure out that the thing in your wrist is not a bracelet…

The YAK Alert drive has already won the Young Achievement Australia’s National Award for most innovative product of the year facing stiff competition from other Aussie universities, and is endorsed by the ambulances and Asthma foundation of Victoria. Trial runs are currently underway.
