Smartphone As Baby Monitors
There are apps to download for smartphones, such as "Baby Monitor 3G" or "Baby Monitor & Alarm" that transform your smartphone into a baby monitor. Such apps require that you dedicate a piece of video camera enabled hardware, usually a smartphone or tablet, as the camera end of the camera/viewer chain.
The alternative to these are the hardware monitors, such as the Withings or BabyPing monitors. With such monitors a specially designed video camera is purchased, that usually links through a home Wi-Fi system to the dedicated app on a smartphone or tablet. This means a dedicated smart device doesn't need to be left in the babies room. Such devices tend to be more feature rich and reliable.

Famous quotes containing the words baby and/or monitors:
“Somebody who should have been born
is gone.
Yes, woman, such logic will lead
to loss without death. Or say what you meant,
you coward . . . this baby that I bleed.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“To anybody who can hold the Present at its worth without being inappreciative of the Past, it may be forgiven, if to such an one the solitary old hulk at Portsmouth, Nelson’s Victory, seems to float there, not alone as the decaying monument of a fame incorruptible, but also as a poetic approach, softened by its picturesqueness, to the Monitors and yet mightier hulls of the European ironclads.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
