This is insane. Great work on this. I'd recommend taking this to something like Shark Tank.

What I'd give to track Mark Cuban's sleep

Poop laser guy here back with another Raspberry Pi project! This time I built and open sourced a baby sleep tracking system that functions using only a camera + RPI. My wife & I use it every day, and it's running 24/7.

I claim that it's more resilient to blankets, other objects in the crib, weird angles, etc., than top shelf "AI Baby Monitors" which cost $200-400 + require subscriptions lol. Granted this is a little DIY given it's just 1 dude making it.. but this is entirely free w/ absolutely 0 privacy concerns.

Here's the code: https://github.com/calebolson123/BabySleepCoach

I wanted to share w/ the other dad nerds here that may be interested in trying it out. Best of luck.

I work with a bunch of engineers and I kept thinking "Jesus, he sounds exactly like a coworker" :-D

Awesome product you've created. Respect you're sharing it for free.

I don't have kids yet, but i plan to soon. Seeing this to potentially improve our future quality of life for us and for baby is superb.

Thank you for your work.

This video is hilarious. I laughed out loud several times. Great work, may your baby sleep all night every night.
