Abstract

Today's Indian society has transformed from a patriarchal and male dominated society to a broadminded one, where women work shoulder to shoulder with men. However, women have to manage their work life and family simultaneously. This ends in admitting their child to crèche throughout their job temporal order. The proposed system will help parents, especially working women to take care of their infants without being physically present. But when it comes to crèche or some outsider monitoring our babies, the level of care and concern can never be matched with that of parents. Hence, here we have a system that will facilitate the parents to monitor their babies without being physically present and assure utmost reliability. The demonstrated system gives the complete idea about how a baby monitoring system can be implemented using various sensors like temperature, humidity, PIR, and noise. Also, a DC Motor has been interfaced so that the cradle can swing automatically when the baby cries or its sleep is disturbed. The live status of the baby can be viewed on the webpage and the data from the sensors are dynamically updated. Also, notifications regarding baby's health status are sent to the parents through the mail as and when required. This system aims at assisting parents in taking satisfactory care of their babies.
