The Baby's Fairy is an infant monitoring system that looks over the baby's vital signs.
Currently an Indiegogo campaign to raise funds for the project, the Baby's Fairy consists of a wearable wristband and a parent base where a baby's heart rate and body temperature can be monitored for any changes or abnormal signs. Slated to be released in December 2013, parents can be within a range of 30 meters and monitor the baby's status when the wristband is attached to the baby's left wrist.
The wristband uses a advanced heart rate sensor as well as a micro resistor to monitor body temperature. The parent base, which is similar in size to a smartphone, displays live information, including vital sign status, connection strength and battery level, and has an in-built alert system. The Baby's Fairy doesn't require any additional installations or app downloads, and can be used straight out of the box.
