The technology is designed to give new parents peace of mind. Baby is crying and you’re not sure if she means "Feed me" or "I’m sleepy. " Exmobaby. corn’s "About" section says that its software records "previous physical states" and "attaches a motivation, such as hunger or tiredness, which allows the system to predict likely causes of future events. " Over time, the technology can supposedly help predict a baby’s emotions and behavior.(24)The product is marketed specifically to first-time parents, who are "particularly apprehensive" about their new role and are overwhelmingly ridden with worry. The website cites an increase of premature births as a reason parents’ concerns are at an all-time high and even goes so far as to claim that the technology can reduce the rate of infant deaths. But not everyone is convinced.(25)The antis hold that the Exmobaby is just another product targeted to vulnerable first-time parents who "spend too much money on baby crap. " If you do want a piece of the Exmobaby action, you’ll have to wait. It’s only in investigational stages and can’t be purchased yet.
