Need a hand with the new addition? The Aristotle smart baby monitor might help

 The company also spent a lot of time considering potential privacy concerns. After all, it wasn’t so long ago that a number of smart kids’ toys were blasted for their ability to “spy” on children. But don’t worry, Fujioka told USA Today, there are a number of security and privacy protections within Aristotle, including COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) compliance.

So what actually comes with the Aristotle? The voice-controlled hub is comprised of a Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Direct speaker with multicolored LED lights, and Wi-Fi camera with object recognition. It’s capable of letting mom and dad know when baby is running low on diapers, and accepting an order via voice for more baby supplies. Or, as USA Today explains, should your toddler cry from a nightmare into the night, Aristotle can trigger the lights to come on, a lullaby to start playing, and parents to come running from the next room after receiving a smartphone alert.

Of course, as impressive as this all sounds, much of the Aristotle is still grounded in theory, and won’t make its official debut until June 2017. But if it’s good as it claims to be, parents, this may just be the year to add to your family.
