Parents of today were born into the rise of the internet and technology. Nemuri is merging the parent's needs, with the baby’s demands.
The parents of today are facing a whole new set of challenges, as parenting has changed completely.
71% of Millennial parents say they turn to the internet for parenting advice.
Parennials spent their lives steeped into technology. They are used to getting notified about all events in their life.
In 2010 46% of the couples were both in the workforce. In the 70s only 30% of the couples both worked.
App-time for nap-time.
To ensure constant availability of the boimetrics, nemuri connects to the parents smartphone and the camera can be accessed if needed, either from a far – say in the office, or from the other room in the house.
Let's talk about industrial design here.
The first read of a sectioned yet, pure sphere emerging into a pill shape silhouette guides the eye around the chord loop towards the front facing purpose driven technical parts. As a defined visual structure, each portion is representing the purpose it serves.
Market research showed, that most devices need a bulky mounting system, that neither always corresponds with the ID nor does it fit the different cribs. This is why a strap solution for these two problems seemed to be the best solution in order to maintain the Design goals.
The LED indicates the state of the device. Pressing the release button on the top of the chord-end pushes down the spring-loaded locking pin in the female snap feature and releases the buckle.
Once opened the user can pull out the chord and wrap it around any common crib beam and snap the buckle back into place. The rail prevents movement in the Y-Axis. Ensuring no unintentional use of the release button, the user has to press with enough force.
The spring powered pull-back mechanism ensures, that the device gets attached securely. When not deployed it fits flush into the bottom notch. This way, one can put it on any flat surface, without tumbeling rolling off.
Nemuri can sit upright on any flat surface without tumbling or rolling off.
The cylindrical pogo pin charger fit into the bottom notch, even when deployed on a crib. Magnets inside the device snap the charger in place. A pulsing light indicates when the device is charging.
Six integrated technical features provide maximum security.
A Forward-facing 360° wide-angle camera for motion capturing, video monitoring, facial recognition, eye tracking, and expression interpretation. 5 infrared sensors to measure the temperature on people and the environment. 3 microphones to provide audio input, voice recognition, and voice control. Speakers for audio output, such as soothing tones, voice transmission or audio feedback. WiFi & Bluetooth for data transfer and pairing with other devices. And to make sure air quality is in a good place a Co2 sensor.
In the front Portion, we have, PMMA Cover and PMMA Camera Hood to complete the spherical impression mounted to the Aluminum Heat Sync with OPVD treatment, which is housing the five Infrared sensors, and the camera.
Behind this assembly sits a downwards firing speaker, that provides active cooling by pushing Air through the Venting mesh using the Vulcano Distributor. Underneath sits the PCB that has the Processor Unit and Microphones on it.
In the rear Portion of nemuri are the batteries, that surround the cord spool. The spool is mounted to a Clockspring, to provide pullback and the Buckle is over-molded, once the device is assembled. This stack is followed by another PCB accommodating for the Co2 Sensor and other necessary Board components.
For wifi Signal, nemuri has antennas NCVM’ed on the side of the wall of the HDPE Housing. To Charge nemuri, the back is equipped with two Pogo-pins. The Power button is also placed on the PCB accompanied with a LED that indicates if the device is powered on. Nemuri is closed off with an HDPE Backpiece, that has two co-molded Rubber Pads to create the necessary friction for mounting.
Coming in four different settle tones, one can match any style. Standing out through the unique shape the different swatches can match any outfit, crib and trolley.
Merging the parents needs, with the babys demands
To understand, process and interpret the data captured, but also to respond in adequate ways, nemuri uses big data and cloudcomputing. Throughout the overlapping fields, the AI generates a health status, by tracking how much the baby was fed, hours of sleep, capturing temperature and the room Co2 Level. This information can automatically be transferred to the family doctor.
The intersection between Biometrics and Moment capturing provides a Growth timeline. While the Baby is growing up, the camera constantly gathers images and establishes a growth timeline, evaluating health in regards to the overall progress of development. Take motor abilities for example. Moment capturing combined with the Monitoring capabilities creates the Lifestyle aspect of nemuri. We see a constantly growing trend of Millenial Parents creating social media accounts for their Babys.
According to today.com, 40% of Millenial moms create social Media profiles for their newborn. Adapting to this development, the 360 Camera can also be used to capture the valuable moments while the baby is growing up. AI can enhance the photo by editing the lighting and provide social media ready content, for the parents to share. In addition to that, Nemuri creates weekly behavioral reviews and feeds this data into the parent's schedule, with suggested working hours while the baby is usually asleep of example.
There is a bunch of use cases for nemuri
The device is faced towards the Baby. This way facial expressions and gestures can be interpreted.
In the Docking Station, nemuri tracks environmental conditions, audio activities and can play tunes.
With the device mounted on the stroller during walks.
Take scenic footage to capture the quality time spent with family.
You saw right, there is an extension pack! For when the children grow older.
Meet asobi
The device is simply pushed into the recess of Asobi from above. And that's it – Asobi is connected to Nemuri and ready to go.
Nemuri fits right into the recess and snaps right into place, thaks to the same magnets that hold the charger pogo-pin in place. Asobi also serves as battery extension.
Obviousely you can use the charging cable that comes with nemuri on asobi as well. No worries though, asobe comes with a charger as well.
The upper edge is sewn to the nylon braid with a TPU ring. Here one can see the charging interface, the housing for the push-push mechanism. On the housing are grooves and the retaining elements, which provide a secure connection with the batteries. An extruded HDPE profile holds the batteries in place. Around the profile, there are four loudspeakers, which are screwed to the outer shells. The body is finished with an overmoulded HDPE shell, which is also equipped with retaining elements and provides space for the circuit board. Once the assembly is complete, the floor is encapsulated with a rubber layer that provides the necessary frictional resistance. Asobi has an identical charging interface as nemuri, so the existing charger can also be used here.
