Baby Monitor

BabyMonitor, is a prototype of a sensor that detects when the baby is crying, and automatically alerts the parents via a phone call, and starts playing lullaby with a simple light touch to soothe the baby.

The current version is a working prototype, which showcases the main ideas. The main design goal is not re-inventing Baby Monitor, but to illustrate how to build the sensor using Arduino.

Project Layout

  • /Docs contains the Arduino circuit diagram and the final prototype.
  • /babyMonitor contains the Arduino sketch.

Required Materials

  • Arduino UNO
  • Breadboard
  • Jumper Wires
  • Sound Detector
  • Arduino GSM Shield
  • Piezo Buzzer
  • 2x LED
  • 2x 560Ω Resistor
  • Box or children's toy

Connecting the components

  • Attach the GSM Shield to Arduino UNO.
  • Connect the Sound Detector red cable (+) in Arduino digital pin #5 and black cable (-) into ground pin.
  • Connect the Piezo Buzzer red cable (+) in Arduino digital pin #8 and black cable (-) into ground pin.
  • Connect the Sound Detector (+) in Arduino digital 3.5V and black cable (-) into ground pin, and Pin A0 to pin #5.
  • Connect and Set the LEDs in pin #12 and #11 to light-up.
  • "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" is the melody that have been used in this project, you can costumize your own melody by going through this tutorial.
  • Put the sensor inside a box or a children's toy.
