The award-winning WhyCry® Baby Cry Analyzer is an electronic monitor capable of identifying the reasons why a baby is crying. This sound sensitive device is programmed to recognize different pitches and then digitally analyze and transmit the baby’s cry into one of five simple expressions – hungry, bored, annoyed, sleepy or stressed.
The WhyCry® was originally created by Pedro Monagas, an electronics engineer from Castellar del Valles, Spain. After a year of researching the wails of his own infant son, Monagas then spent the next three years of studying over 100 infants for distinctions in their cries. Monagas found that in analyzing differences in pitch, frequency of crying spells and changes in volume, he was able to develop the calculator sized, over 90% accurate, WhyCry® Crying Baby Analyzer.
