A sleep system including an analysis unit configured to be in data communication with a plurality of sensors, the sensors being selected from one or more sound sensors, biological sensors, environmental sensors, motion sensors, or a combination thereof.

A multi-zone monitoring system is disclosed. The system includes a plurality of sensor modules configured to monitor conditions in a plurality of detection zones. The sensor modules include a combination of detection devices configured to detect different conditions based on a designated zone of each sensor module. The system further includes a reporting device in communication with each of the sensor modules. The reporting device is configured to report the status of each of the detection zones based on indications communicated via the detection devices in the corresponding detection zone.

The vehicle control system/method for adapting a control function based on a user profile may comprise: a gesture recognition module; a user profile module; a function control module; a processor; a non-transitory storage element coupled to the processor; encoded instructions stored in the non-transitory storage element, wherein the encoded instructions when implemented by the processor, configure the system to: identify a user; retrieve a user profile for the identified user; receive at a gesture recognition module, an input indicating a gesture from the user; identify a control function request corresponding to the gesture input; send a verification of the control function request; and receive at a function control module characteristics parsed from the user profile that effect the control function request by the user profile module to adapt a control function command for an adapted control function output by the function control module.

A smart wearable includes a band for securing the smart wearable to the arm of the individual, a housing attached to the band, the housing having a top, an opposite bottom and side surfaces, a processor disposed within the housing, a display at the top of the housing and operatively connected to the processor, a wireless transceiver disposed within the housing and operatively connected to the processor, an accelerometer disposed within the housing and operatively connected to the processor, a microphone disposed within the housing and operatively connected to the processor, a heart rate sensor for measuring heart rate of the individual, the heart rate sensor operatively connected to the processor and positioned at the bottom of the housing, and an optical sensor operatively connected to the processor, the optical sensor configured for detecting oxygen saturation within blood of the individual when the individual presses a finger against the optical sensor.

A method for monitoring a child utilizing a smart wearable. Biometrics of the child are measured utilizing at least the smart wearable. A status of the child and of the smart wearable is monitored. An alert is generated in response to determining the child has had an impact greater than a threshold, moves beyond a geo-fenced area, one or more of the biometrics exceeds a threshold, and determining the smart wearable has been cut, damaged, or broken.

A video monitoring system includes a camera head, which includes an infrared illumination source and an image sensor and is configured to transmit streaming video signals generated by the image sensor. A mount is configured to hold the camera head in a fixed location and orientation above a bed such that the image sensor captures images from a bird's eye view of a child in the bed. A processor is configured to receive and analyze the video signals so as to extract and provide information to a client device with regard to a behavior of the child.

A system includes a household appliance and a sensor. The sensor is configured to output a sensor signal to the household appliance. The household appliance is configured to be activated based on the sensor signal received from the sensor.

A station for conducting an infant car seat challenge test includes a first portion, a second portion, and a resilient cushion. The first portion has a top configured as an open-top receptacle. The resilient cushion is disposed in and is coupled to the open-top receptacle. The resilient cushion has a sloped top surface where the sloped top surface is sloped towards a first side of the open-top receptacle. The resilient cushion is adapted to support an infant car seat thereon. The second portion is coupled to the first portion at a second side of the open-top receptacle. The second portion includes a platform positioned above the open-top receptacle wherein the platform is adapted to support an electronic display thereon.

A video monitoring system includes a camera head, including an infrared illumination source and an image sensor. A mount is configured to hold the camera head in a fixed location and orientation above a crib, so that the image sensor captures images of the crib and an intervention region adjacent to the crib from a fixed perspective.
