I am a very deep sleeper and attach great importance to sleep quality.
After I have a kid, I releaized that I have to sleep with one ear open forever. Sleeping soundly became the thing of the past.
The good news is that I am also an enthusiatic Maker. To help bringing sanity back to me and my wife, I have developed this Baby Monitoring System running on Raspberry Pi and Micropython. It helps me get things done during those brief free periods without worrying missing my baby’s cry. I gives me reassurance and, most of all, good sleep.
This Baby Monitoring system, credit-card size, is installed near my son’s crib. He usually makes lots of noise when waking up (yawning, laughing, sometimes crying). The sound sensor of the system keeps checking 24/7 and will send me an alert email or SMS when detecting any loud noise from the little demon. Since it is running on wifi, I can be notified even if I am a world apart.
Special thanks to my son who deprives my sleep for 9 long months and inspires me to deveop such a project. Love you.
