Remi is a smart alarm clock presented by the start-up Urban Hello supposed to teach sleeping well to babies and children under 10 years. This awakening also serves as a babyphone and pregnant but it helps parents especially to follow and improve, over time, the sleep of their children.
Every morning, on waking, the device calculates a sleep score, allowing the parents to follow its evolution according to several criteria (noise, temperature of the room, etc.). In this way, they can identify the conditions that favor a happy sleep and, on the contrary, those who participate in an insomnia.
Thanks to Remi you can :
- Create sleeping and siesting habits that are perfect for your baby, with flexible alerts, adjustable nightlight, music, and more.
- Personalize your REMI, and let your child use the REMI app to learn how to manage his bedtime and lifting habits.
- Put your baby in the best conditions for a good night’s sleep, thanks to the adjustable night light and lullabies of your choice
- Record the sound profile of your child’s nights and keep a follow-up log to help you identify the most favorable conditions for your child’s sleep.
- Connect to REMI to listen to your baby or talk to your child, remind him to turn off the light at night or it’s time to get up.
- Connect your smartphone or tablet via bluetooth to play music of your choice and use REMI as a speaker.

I do not know what to think about this product. Often the technology has good, and may be this invention also has good for some overworked parents. But I find there are some parental “tasks” that can not be replaced by kinds of robots like reading a story, or singing lullabies. On the other hand what I find good is that REMI can provide parents more information about their children’s sleep habits and patterns.
I think that REMI can be just a nice additional staff during care about baby, but it is still good to keep in mind that it s just a machine. In case of nice invention dedicated to babies there is a great idea, which became successful on the US market and was created by Polish lady. It is a teddy bear, which when baby wants to hug it giving a sound of hair dryer, which as research shows is very relaxing for newborn and causes that babies are falling asleep faster.
