An IoT-based baby monitoring system

The number of working mothers has greatly increased compared to the past few decades. Subsequently, baby care during daily life has become a challenge to many families. Thus, most of parents used to send their babies to grandparents’ house or baby care-house to take care of their babies. However, th...

Electronics Nuclear engineering The number of working mothers has greatly increased compared to the past few decades.

Thus, most of parents used to send their babies to grandparents’ house or baby care-house to take care of their babies.
