1. How Does CuboAi/CuboAi Plus' AI Detection Work?

Once the baby monitor has been connected to a power source and the Covered Face and Rollover Alerts function has been switched on in the App, the AI detection function will be activated; when Baby is placed in the crib, CuboAi/CuboAi Plus will first send out an alert within approximately 90 seconds to let parents know whether it has detected Baby or whether Baby's face is covered.

• Based on Baby’s movement, positioning, and face visibility in the crib, CuboAi/CuboAi Plus will determine if an alert needs to be sent. In the event that CuboAi/CuboAi Plus detects Baby rolling over or if the mouth and/or nose is covered, an alert will be sent to the CuboAi App. 
• To ensure that Baby is sleeping safely and soundly, CuboAi/CuboAi Plus will examine the crib based on movements detected or re-examine regularly to proactively detect if any Covered Face/Rollover events arise.
  

2. Ideal Setup

The stand (floor stand, crib attachment or wall mount) is required to utilize the Covered Face and Rollover Alerts function. CuboAi/CuboAi Plus is most effective when it is placed directly above the crib with the baby monitor looking directly down at Baby, and your crib filling the full screen. This view angle is required to correctly determine Baby’s posture. If the baby monitor is not set up in this recommended position, it may cause the baby monitor’s AI to misjudge the events occurring and may result in inaccurate detection.

3. What Might Cause Inaccurate Detection?

The following setup may cause inaccurate AI detection due to inadequate baby monitor positioning. Please ensure that the baby monitor is properly set up to minimize error notifications.

• If CuboAi/CuboAi Plus is positioned too far or too high from the crib, and if the camera angle is not positioned directly down at the crib.
• If there is too much stuff in the crib (ie. pillows, stuffed animals, toys.)*
• CuboAi/CuboAi Plus' AI was designed to detect one baby at a time. If there is more than one baby in the crib, the AI detection will not be able to function properly.
  
• If Baby wears a hat or a swaddle, which makes it hard for the baby monitor to detect your little one's biological features. 
• Please refer to this article for more detailed info on how to improve the accuracy of AI detection.
• CuboAi/CuboAi Plus' AI detection will trigger & send alerts at different intervals depending on Baby’s movement. In most cases when Baby’s detected in the crib and with much movement, CuboAi/CuboAi Plus will detect any potential events at high frequency, while in some cases when Baby’s not in the crib or when Baby is in the crib with less movement, it will detect and send alerts at different frequencies relatively.

*Note: the AAP recommends that cribs contain no blankets, pillows, stuffed toys, or bumper pads placed around Baby. Babies can roll into any of these items resulting in an air flow blockage.

4. Baby Detected & Didn't Detect Baby

• Baby Detected
  Even if you are not at home with Baby, CuboAi/CuboAi Plus can keep you updated on Baby’s status. In addition to being able to log into the CuboAi App and view Baby whenever you’d like, CuboAi/CuboAi Plus will also inform you when Baby has been placed into the crib.
  

• Didn't Detect Baby
  If CuboAi/CuboAi Plus detects that Baby is not in the crib, or if their whole body is covered by an object such as a blanket, our AI will register that there is no baby in the crib and send a notification to your app in case something’s wrong.
  
  If an object has fully covered Baby, potentially causing an airway obstruction, it is critical that the parents are notified so that they can see what is going on. Parents can have peace of mind when they lay their baby down into the crib knowing that they’ll be notified if a situation arises where they need to step in.
  

5. Notifications/Alerts

When CuboAi/CuboAi Plus detects a Covered Face or Rollover event, a notification will be sent to parents so they may investigate. Parents will also be able to preview photos that CuboAi/CuboAi Plus has taken of the crib to get a better idea of why the notification was sent:

• iPhone: After receiving a notification, press and hold the notification banner to preview the photo of the event

• Android phone: After receiving a notification, pull the notification down to preview the photo of the event
  
  
  

6. Review Events

You may review all the alerts and notifications on the ‘Notifications Tab’ to browse all previous events.  Alternatively, you can go into full screen mode in the App and review the 18 hour video playback.

7. How to Customize the Alerts?

The Covered Face and Rollover alerts are completely customizable, so whether your little one is a stomach sleeper or he/she no longer needs Covered Face alerts, we've made it possible to disable either of these notifications without affecting any other notifications.

You may customize the notifications by going to CuboAi App Settings → A.I. Detection → Tap on the tab of the baby monitor that you'd like to adjust at the top → Select Covered Face and Rollover Detection or Covered Face Detection ONLY.

  

8. How to customize the Detection Zone?

You can set your Crib Detection Zone so CuboAi/CuboAi Plus knows what areas to focus on as part of our Covered Face and Rollover Alerts and avoid areas outside the crib where you may pass by to reduce false alerts.

You can customize the detection zone by going to CuboAi App Settings → Tap on the tab of the baby monitor that you'd like to adjust at the top → A.I. Detection → Set Detection Zone.

CuboAi Reminder: Please make sure the Detection Zone covers the entire crib area. The "Set Crib Detection Zone" function is designed for the AI detection, which determines the area to focus on as part of our Covered Face and Rollover Alerts. Setting this does not mean narrowing the camera's view to the detection zone, so you can still see CuboAi/CuboAi Plus' wide angle view during the live stream and 18 hour playback.

Correct Crib Detection Set-Up: the Detection Zone covers the entire crib area and avoids areas outside the crib that parents may pass by.

Incorrect Crib Detection Set-Up: the Detection Zone is too small. Please avoid setting the Detection Zone too tightly around Baby. This may result in inaccurate detection.

9. Sleep Safety Tips

CuboAi/CuboAi Plus’ co-creator and pediatrician consultant Dr. Kenneth Yeh shares the following tips for new parents to ensure sleep safety for their little ones:

• An extra bumper pad is not required for the crib railing.
• Baby should not share the same bed as the parents. 
• Please refrain from having pillows, toys or blankets in the crib.
• Wearing a one-piece pajama lowers the risk that clothing will cover the face.
• The mattress should be firm enough to not cause airway obstruction due to mattress sag.
