Technology Innovations

The sprouting ankle band turns baby monitors into wearable tech. It tracks Heart rate, breathing, movement, and body position. An app alerts parents if something is awry. Company co-founder Mathew Spolin came up with the idea because his son would always sleep face-down: “As soon as he flipped over, the device would’ve pushed right to my phone.” Sproutling learns babies’ behaviors, such as nap lengths, to help parents better plan. The charging station tracks light, noise, and temperature too. This will solve parents problems who are busy while their child is sleeping they could keep them on check with this specific monitor. This innovation is good, because it keeps track of different things while the baby is asleep.
