ABSTRACT :

The main aim of this project is to detect the baby’s cry and stop it by playing the music automatically
thereby sending a SMS to the parents on mobile if the baby is crying. The biggest problem that mothers
face is that they can't leave their babies alone in a room asleep, that they must sit next to them, and leave
anything else in there hand because getting afraid if the baby starts to wake up which is a wasting of time,
from there came our idea.This system proposes a simple voice detection system which can be applied
practically for designing a device which has a capability to detect a baby cry which is based on Arduino
microcontroller board and plays the music. This project supports working parents in taking care of their
lonely babies which deals with the theme of public safety.
LIST OF THEMES :
• AGRICULTURE
• PUBLIC SAFETY
• WASTE TO WEALTH
• ENERGY CONSERVATION
• ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION

SELECTED THEME:
• The project baby cry Detector is based on the theme of Public safety.
• The first & most thing of Public safety not only follows the safety rules of public but also to take care
about the public in the society. The idea of the ‘BABY CRY DETECTOR’ aims to take care the baby in
mother’s absence. Mother will not be beside the baby always, so this project aims to be good source
about taking care of baby and ensuring the real public safety.
 EXISTING METHOD

• This system proposes a simple voice detection system which can be

applied practically for designing a device with capability to detect a
baby’s cry and automatically turning on baby sleep music to make the
baby stop crying and simultaneously sending a message to the parents
on phone that the baby is crying

• The system is based on Arduino microcontroller. Whenever the baby

Cry, it is detected by the controller with the help of Mic and in order to
that turns on the music and sleep mechanism which creates soothing
sound which makes baby sleep again gently. In this project a program
is implemented to detect an infant’s crying.
 PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION
PROBLEM:
• Parents in the present world are busy in their professional life, so they do not get sufficient
time to take care of their babies. It is inconvenient for parents to constantly watch over their
baby while doing their work or chores. So we have designed an simple system which helps
parents in taking care of baby.

SOLUTION:
• This system proposes a simple voice detection system which can be applied practically
for designing a device with capability to detect a baby’s cry and automatically turning on
baby sleep music to make the baby stop crying and simultaneously sending a message to the
parents on phone that the baby is crying.

 EXPLANATION OF BLOCK DIAGRAM

• Arduino Board: An open source hardware and software microcontroller kit for building devices
and interactive objects that can sense and control both physically and digitally.
• Sound Detector :It is device which senses the sound , processes an output signal voltage which is
sent to a microcontroller then performs necessary processing.
• LED : A Diode used for light emitting when current is passed.
• GSM Shield: Device which supports mobile operating message system (SMS or text messaging)
and data communication connected to a Arduino.
• Music Player: A Device which makes the baby to sleep by producing a melodious music

HARDWARE PROTOTYPE
 MATERIALS

ARDUINO BOARD

• It is an open source hardware and software

microcontroller kit for building devices and interactive
objects that can sense and control both physically and
digitally.

• They are able to read the inputs and turn it into output.
Arduino consists of both programmable circuit board
and piece of software.
 LED

• A LED is simply a diode that has been doped specifically for

efficient light emission and has been packaged in a transparent
case.
• Therefore, it inserted into a circuit in the same way as a
photodiode to check whether circuit is working or not.
 SOUND DETECTOR

• It is a device which senses the sound, processes an output signal voltage which is sent to a
microcontroller then performs necessary processing.
• The sound sensor module provides an easy way to detect sound and is generally used for
detecting sound intensity. This module can be used for security, switch, and monitoring
applications. Its accuracy can be easily adjusted for the convenience of usage.
 GSM SHIELD

• It is a device which supports mobile operating message system(SMS or text

messaging) and data communication connected to a arduino.
• It supports incoming voice calls and simple messaging system. The Arduino
GSM Shield V2 connects your Arduino to the internet using the GPRS wireless
network.
MUSIC PLAYER

• A device which makes the baby to sleep by producing a

melodious music.
• The project posted here is of simple music player system based
on Arduino uno board and SD card module.

MP3 MODULE
• Mini MP3 Player Module is a compact, low cost MP3 module

which can be directly connected to the speaker.

• The Mini MP3 Player Module features hardware decoding and
supports common audio formats such as MP3 and WMA. Audio
files can be played directly from a micro SD card.
 WORKING PRINCIPLE
• Initially a source code is inserted to the Arduino board and a sound detector is connected to a
breadboard with suitable jumper wires to access a sound detection with the Arduino device,

• Whenever the baby Cry, it is detected by the Arduino controller with the help of sound sensor and in
order to that turns on the music with a speaker connected to a MP3 module and sleep mechanism which
creates soothing sound which makes baby sleep again gently. Alternately a message is sent to the
parent mobile with the help of a GSM shield connected to the circuit . A LED is also connected to the
circuit to check the whole working process.
 ADVANTAGES & DISADVANTAGES

ADVANTAGES:

• Eco friendly.
• Cost efficient.
• Works automatically.
• Saves time for parents.
• It is mainly very useful to the women job holders.

DISADVANTAGES:
• It cannot replace mother.
 CONCLUSION

• The prototype of the Baby cry detector is designed successfully.

• Crying Baby Detector is a project taken from Baby Monitor concept but the differences are that my
idea take some actions like automatic playing music for the baby so that the baby get back to sleep,
using what's called White Noise which is some quiets noise or music that comfort the baby which get
him/her back to sleep.

• This illustrates when baby is Crying, the sensor readily detects the Sound, alerts the parents via
SMS on phone and starts playing lullaby to soothe the baby.
