Cradlewise - Smart Cradle

A techie founder-couple had a situation; a newborn who refused to sleep. They studied theories of sleep, paediatrician inputs and made a prototype that worked well. They worked with Ether Design for a complete rethink of architecture, modularity, shape & styling. We designed a form that was highly functional, lightweight and compact. The cradle’s features involve continuous intelligent baby monitoring, responsive behaviour using advanced camera technology, washable and naturally fitting sling, weight management around the hammock while holding the baby & an entertainment unit for the baby!
