"The contact-free breathing monitoring is compelling, but the required subscription for analytics isn't."
This monitor uses a small radar sensor, not just a camera, to detect the minute chest movements from breathing. This means it works through swaddles and blankets without requiring you to put a battery-powered device on your child.
This is for parents who are philosophically opposed to wearable monitors but still want respiration tracking. Those who value strong, hardware-level security features and are willing to commit to a recurring subscription to get detailed sleep analytics may find it suitable.
Anyone seeking a simple, one-time purchase should pass. If you are comfortable with either a wearable breathing monitor or a standard video-only monitor, you can find competent alternatives for less money and without ongoing fees.
