(West Hollywood, California) -- In recent years the incidence of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) has been reducing, but it is still the leading cause of death for babies in their first year of life. But now a unique new technology from Snuza is adding a set of eyes and ears to an infant's bedroom and crib to help reduce the risk of SIDS related tragedies. On the
market for a few years now, the popular original Snuza Halo Movement Monitor is a small device that provides an effective way to monitor a sleeping infant. Bu now the new Snuza Trio is an innovative technological upgrade of the original Snuza Halo product that now adds a high-quality video and audio component to the mix.
The original Snuza Halo has always monitored the baby's movement by clipping, not to the crib mattress, but gently to the baby's diaper near the stomach. This ultra sensitive motion detector monitors and recognizes the baby's movement constantly. If the Snuza Halo does not sense movement within a 15 second time period, it does what you would do - try to stimulate your baby to breathe again. Snuza Halo does this by activating a pulsed vibration, which imitates a technique used by Hospital Neonatal Care Units worldwide called "Cutaneous Stimulation". If movement is not sensed within a further five seconds of the vibration, an audible alarm is triggered to alert the parents to the problem.
What's New? Now with the new Snuza Trio, parents get technologically-advanced movement monitoring, audio and video all in one unit. The Snuza Trio includes the original Halo device, an effective night vision camera that can be aimed into the crib and a built-in 2-way microphone to record sounds of the baby and the Halo alarm should it go off.
The Snuza Trio audio-video monitor sports a 2.3 inch LCD screen that is functional to a range of 450 feet from the camera and the crib. It even includes three lullaby tunes that can be used to help soothe the baby to sleep as it is monitoring.
The Snuza Trio sells for $329.99 and is available at several online retailers including:
BabiesRUS.com, Giant Steps Toys and Pink and Blue Avenue
As an alternative, the video camera and audio monitor set can be purchased together without the Halo Movement Monitor: Snuza Video - $219.99
