Owlet Monitor Duo represents an innovative solution in the field of child monitoring, where it combines the use of a Smart Sock with a high-tech surveillance camera, Cam 2. This integrated solution offers parents a comprehensive overview of their child's health status and well-being. Using pulse oximetry technology, which is built into the Smart Sock, parents can monitor their child's heart rate and oxygen saturation while the baby sleeps. This vital data is continuously transmitted to a base station, which in turn uses both visual and audio signals to inform parents of any changes in the child's condition.

To further strengthen monitoring, Cam 2 broadcasts a high-definition video stream directly to the parents' phone via a secure and encrypted connection. Owlet Monitor Duo therefore offers an in-depth and multidimensional monitoring of the child's safety.

Ease of use is a central aspect of this system. Installation is simple and fast, usually it takes no more than ten minutes before the system is up and running. Once the system is set up, parents can easily access HD video streaming on their smartphone, no matter where they are. Monitor Duo is not only for tracking your baby's heart rate and oxygen levels, but also for monitoring other important aspects such as sleep patterns. Parents receive instant notifications if the child's vital signs deviate from the preset norms.

The system also has built-in functions to detect sound, movement and now even crying. This means that parents can get an understanding of the situation before the baby starts crying. The Owlet Smart Sock, which attaches to the child's foot, works in conjunction with the base station to transmit real-time updates of the child's vital signs through the Owlet app. This sock is designed in two sizes to fit babies from birth to 18 months. It can be used alone with the app alone or in combination with the security camera.

Cam 2 acts as a sophisticated surveillance camera that not only tracks the baby's sounds and movements but also its crying. It sends notifications to the app when needed, such as when the baby wakes up and starts crying. The camera also monitors the room temperature and reports it in the app, helping parents ensure the room maintains a comfortable temperature for the child.
