Inventor creates new safe type safety pin in Atlanta
An engineer at Georgia Tech, Robert N Miller PhD, developed a reverse action magnetic safety pin that locks when open to prevent pinage during diaper changes. He collaborated with Dr Equen and described tests showing the pin resists swallowing risks and can be retrieved magnetically. The story also notes local community leaders and student achievements in nearby Allegheny College and a fatal carbon monoxide incident.
