Scientists, research scholars, enthusiasts, developers, doctors across all nations are striving to provide support by all means.People now-a-days show more dependency on the technologies than ever before. One such thing is on navigation technologies. Navigation technologies are well enhanced with the help of wireless communications such as the GPS, bluetooth and wifi systems. Google maps for Android, Here maps for Microsoft are some of the examples that satisfy the needs for navigation. However these cannot be accurate in minute levels. To put in other words, indoor navigation is a problem, which arises as a global issue for navigation industries. Key Words -- AR/MR, Baby-care, Covid19, Indoor navigation, Future Technology. I. INTRODUCTION This paper provides the solutions for problems with most of the baby-care industries succeeding a pandemic crisis like Covid 19. Of all the known pandemics so far, most of them are contagious (Spread from one to another instantly). Being that said, it is difficult to contain the disease’s spread without voluntary measures and awareness among people. Technologies also play a vital role in reducing the risk factor to low. Immersive technologies like AR,VR and MR have significant role to play during such pandemics as they are capable of non physical contact(real-life contact), thereby facilitating the user to keep their distance.By, Sept 19 2020 the total active Covid 19 cases has reached over 26.5 Million world-wide for the first time in the human history. II. ISSUES OF A PANDEMIC A. Social Distancing Soon after the outbreak of any contagious disease the first preventive measure to be taken is social distancing. This part of preventive measure is difficult to implement in public gathering sectors like malls, theaters, religious places and so on. This leads to the second issue to come into action ( i.e, Lock down). However social distancing can be viewed and verified using deep learning algorithms in certain facilitated places. Also as an individual there are AR/MR mobile apps that can help you to maintain the distancing properly. B. Lock Down Lock down is seen as a cruel act of government in some areas, as it denies the rights of people to a certain extent. Lock down is implemented mainly to keep social distancing in check. Certain necessary commodities like milk, petrol are available at any time. But there are also other essential commodities as well, like the diaper for babies, where parents are not able to identify the correct diaper size of the babies as the baby grows sooner in the course of time. This pandemic makes it even more difficult for both the parents as well as the baby-care industries to deal with such things.
