The approach used by Breaking Ventures Inc. is demand-pull, where the development of a product is based on customer demand or market needs. In this case, the company developed the device in response to the concern of parents about their teenage children's safety. Supply-push is when technology or capabilities inspire the creation of a new product, science-push is when technological advances lead to the development of new products, and research-pull is when research in a particular field drives the creation of a new product.
