3. Cubo Ai Sleep Safety Bundle
Billed as the first baby monitor to use AI, this baby monitor can detect if your baby’s face is covered, or if the baby has got stuck rolling over; it can also generate a sleep analytics report. The bundle includes a sleep sensor pad that can be used to track micro motion.
