SmartSleeper:
A curved, side zipping system allows us the SmartPebble to be positioned in the centre of the SmartSleeper, essential for accurate positional data. Designed for convenience, allowing parents to fully open the SmartSleeper when getting their baby in/out. SmartSleeper's patented internal pocket with a ‘tortured path’, ensures SmartPebble stays securely in place + inaccessible to children.
SmartPebble:
Runs on replaceable batteries, reducing added complexity to parental routines (ie. remember to recharge + additional charger cost). The battery and its machine-washable design mean the SmartPebble can be left in the infant’s bag for up to 9 months. Software has been developed to minimise energy use without compromising data quality - sensors are powered for a millisecond each second, data is sent to SmartBridge and then sent to the App for storage.

SmartBridge:
Called a ‘Bridge’ because it serves as the connection to WiFi, the SmartBridge sends data from the SmartPebble to the SmartSnugg server. Data is transferred via a low powered Bluetooth connection. Using the App parents can access live monitoring and data in real-time from anywhere in the world. SmartBridge features an adjustable nightlight + room temperature sensor. Data from the temperature sensor is used as a crucial reference point in the monitoring system.

SmartSnugg App:
Monitor both SmartSleeper and room temperatures in real-time. The differential between the two generally stabilises after about 40 mins. Beyond that point, any significant increase in the differential has likely been caused by an increase in body temperature. This unexpected finding, discovered during testing, has been incorporated into a range of alerts that parents can choose from.
