When another caretaker feeds the baby using the Gigl holder, parents can remotely retrieve the information generated by email or SMS at the end of every meal with its Bluetooth Shield Function. This allows the disabling of Bluetooth signals at-will when the bottle is placed in the holder and prevents signal transmission while in use. Information includes quantity at the beginning/end of feedings, feeding times, the number of lump alerts, the number of wrong angle alerts, and a graph showing all mealtimes that day.
The Baby Gigl holder also includes Baby Journal 3.0, which provides reports and data in a graphical and historical view of all meals per day, week, and month. It facilitates collaboration with other family members using color-coded status updates and can work with other connective devices to track everything from food intake to number of diapers used, number of burps, total time spent sleeping, and even photo galleries.
Slow Control’s Cross-Sharing technology allows parents to organize and centralize collected information from each person involved in the baby’s feeding. This works whether one Baby Gigl is used for all caretakers, or if each has their own holder (marked by a different color). Previously, Slow Control introduced the 10SFork, a connected fork that helps users eat more slowly to control the speed of food intake.
The Baby Gigl is currently being funded through an Indiegogo campaign.
