Baby monitor

Belongs to:
Home
Synonyms:
Baby surveillance
Description:

With baby monitors, infants can be monitored acoustically. Thereby a transmitter records the sound of the children and transmits it via radio technology to a mobile receiver. The receiver is equipped with loudspeakers and reproduces the sound.

Frequency ranges:
  • 40 MHz
  • 466 MHz
  • 864 MHz
  • 2,450 MHz
Type of field:
electromagnetic
