Abstract

Nowadays, artificial intelligence is present in all parts of our lives from work, to hospitals, to schools and even our home. Through this work, we will present a smart cradle for infant monitoring. This system uses AI algorithms and IOT tools to monitor the baby and detect its needs which in turn, would be a very important tool to help parents, babysitters and nurses in hospitals to monitor the baby and understand its needs using the cries that they make. In addition to that, our smart cradle is a robust system that can detect if one of the sensors used is unavailable or malfunctioning and proposes solutions to insure its service.

Our smart cradle incorporates various sensors, including temperature, humidity and audio sensors, along with a camera, to continuously monitor the infant's health and movements within the cradle environment. The microphone is the most important sensor in our system because it allows the detection of the baby cries and it sends the sound to our intelligent algorithm that analysis the sound and determines what the baby needs. The most important part in our smart cradle is the fault tolerance part that allows the overall system to work correctly and without breakdowns. As we know, sensors are electronic objects that can break down due to different causes such as power outages, so this module is responsible for handling any exceptions that may arise.

We use different techniques for fault tolerance mainly replication, exception handlers and learning algorithms to solve all detected faults. The fault tolerance part makes our smart cradle different from all proposed systems for baby monitoring.
