• How Does the Baby Monitor AI Detection Work?

1. When the Baby monitor is powered on and the "Covered-Face & Rollover Detection" is activated from the app, the AI detection function will start; after the baby is placed in the crib, CuboAi will send the first push notification within 90 seconds to let parents know if CuboAi "detects the baby" or if the "baby's mouth and nose are covered"

2. The Baby monitor will judge based on the baby's movements, postures, and facial expressions on the bed, and will send a notification once it detects the possibility of rolling over or the baby's mouth and nose being covered. The time it takes for the phone to receive the notification may vary depending on the network speed and stability.

3. In non-dangerous situations, the Baby Monitor will continue to periodically check the baby's crib status to ensure the baby's sleep safety.

4. The Baby monitor will also detect whether the baby is on the bed.

• How to set up Covered-Face & Rollover Detection

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.

Step 1: Go to the CuboAi App settings page

Step 2: Select the camera you want to adjust settings for on the top tab

Step 3: Choose "Covered-Face & Rollover Detection"

Step 4: Click to allow notifications and choose "Covered Face & Rollover Alert" or "Covered Face Alerts only"

🐦Reminder:

1. As the baby grows, if parents no longer wish to receive notifications for "Covered Face & Rollover Alert" but still want to receive notifications for "covering mouth and nose while sleeping on the back/side," they can enable the "Covered Face Alerts only" option.

2. When the baby grows older and the risk of foreign objects covering the mouth and nose or suffocation from rolling over in bed decreases, parents can also individually turn off this detection feature!

• How to set up Crib Detection Zone

Step 1: Go to the CuboAi App settings page

Step 2: Select the camera you want to adjust settings for from the top tabs

Step 3: Click on the Crib Detection Zone

Step 4: Click "OK" to start selecting the range

Step 5: Once setup is complete, click on the top right corner "Save" to finish

After setting up CuboAi, if you find that the camera's coverage area is too large, parents can set the detection area range to allow CuboAi's AI to focus on the selected area for detection, ensuring the baby's safety, and also avoid actions by parents near the baby's bed, as well as other items outside the bed, which may affect the accuracy of AI detection!

🐦Reminder:

It is recommended that parents set the detection range to cover the entire baby bed during setup. Additionally, the detection range does not equal the camera's filming range, so when logging into the app to view, you can still see the complete wide-angle view

*Correct setup of Crib Detection Zone: Detection zone covering the entire baby bed while avoiding areas where parents pass through and move around.

*Incorrect setup of Crib Detection Zone: The detection zone is too small, which can lead to excessive false alerts.

• Baby Detected & Didn't Detect Baby

CuboAi synchronizes to detect if the baby is in bed and provides the following notifications:

- Baby Detected

If the baby is being cared for by someone else, parents may want to know the baby's condition. In addition to checking on the baby by logging into CuboAi, CuboAi will also proactively notify parents when the baby returns to bed!

- Baby Not Detected

If CuboAi detects that the baby has left the bed, or is completely covered by an object, it will immediately send out this notification. Please confirm the baby's status as soon as possible
(It can let parents know when the baby leaves the crib, used to record the baby's sleep; on the other hand, if the baby is completely covered and CuboAi cannot detect the baby, it can also remind parents immediately)

• Notification

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:

1. iOS device: After receiving a notification, press and hold the notification banner to preview the photo of the event

2. Android device: After receiving a notification, pull the notification down to preview the photo of the event

• Review Event

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.

• Frequently Asked Questions

1. 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.

2. Can I Turn Off Covered-Face & Rollover Detection?

Yes, considering that there is no risk of nose and mouth covering for babies as they grow older, parents can choose to turn off the "Covered-Face & Rollover Detection" function as needed to avoid receiving unnecessary notifications.

• 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.
