 Introduction
 The baby monitoring system is a kind of alarm system which can detect babies’
movements and activities and can convey the message about the condition of babies
to the concerned authority via a mobile and triggers alarm.
 In the present world people are very busy in their professional life so they do not get
enough time to take care of their infants.
 Monitoring a baby continuously is really a tough job as well as it is not possible for
the parents to carry out their babies all the time with them especially while working.
 The prototype on this project develops a system which gives a reliable and efficient
baby monitoring system that can play a vital role in providing better infant care.

 This system monitors different parameters such as body temperature, moisture
condition, movement of an infant and audio to detect the crying of baby then sends
notification and triggers alarm.

Problem of statement
The problems that make us to work this project can be listed as follows
 Parents spend most of their time and money to give a good care for their
children.
 Most mothers currently quit their jobs to monitor their infant properly.
 Parents don’t have a strong belief on the house maids and baby sitters they
employee for their children.
 Parents also don’t feel a mental rest at while they are at work, they think whether
their baby awake, gets wet, or feels a fever.
 Considering that babies can’t speak their condition, they need to be understood
when they feel fever or they need to change their diaper.

 Scope
The scope of our project is :-
 This system is implemented only for a single.
 The system sends the notification for only for a single cell phone number that
configured on the SMS sending application.
 The system also made for only inside home application.
 The face recognition is only for frontal face and detects only child which
training image is feed for the recognizer.

 Literature Review
 Many home-care systems are available but majority of this system are
specially designed for the aged people and patients.
 Children and adults require different type of care because they are totally
dependent for their normal functions on someone else.
 Infants cannot give any feedback about their discomfort or health complaints.
 A baby monitoring system is introduced in by Soukaina Bangui,
Mohammed El Kihal and Yassine Salih-Alj. This system was proposed to
 provide an enhanced noise canceling system
 to overcome the sound pollution in order to make babies’ rooms more
comfortable.

Prof. Kranti Dive, Prof. Gitanjali Kulkarni have presented a system for
monitoring infants based on the embedded system.
The system consists of
 door sensor
 LDR based light sensor
 voice detection module for doing the job of monitoring infants.
 LEDs were used to detect the sensors output
 Alarm were also attached to the system to give the alert

General objective
 The general objective of our project is to design, develop and test a system that
monitors baby’s conditions and notifies for their parents.
Specific objective
 Measure temperature, moisture and motion of the baby using respective sensors.
 Detects sound via the sound sensor and notify if the baby cries by using the
image recognition.
 Notify for parents using SMS.
 Trigger alarm depending on the status of the baby.

 To design the development of a smart baby care, which has ability to
monitor baby movement, baby-wet condition and body temperature.
 To make a baby bed is safe and comfortable for baby.
 Using Ultrasonic sensor detect the movement of the baby body as well as
baby-wet condition to keep away baby from hygienic environment.

 Significance of the study
The people who will beneficial from this system are the mothers that spends most of
the time in work.
 This system gives parents and also children a comfortable life. Give a smart life
condition for the bay on this modern era.
 To save the excessive time that parents spend on taking care of their children.
 To allow parents to do their jobs without any worry by monitoring their children
condition.
 To give parents full monitor on their children.
 To make children especially infants to be understand by using this system.
