MuseGuard

MuseGuard turns a spare phone into a home guardian for a sleeping baby, a pet or an older parent. Home cameras either stream video and leave all the watching to you, or fire so many motion alerts that families stop paying attention. Families want to know right away when something is actually wrong, and to be left alone the rest of the time. The guardian phone screens the camera on the device itself. In Baby mode it watches for a covered face, face-down sleep or no movement. In Pet mode it logs when a dog or cat enters a zone you draw. In Older adult mode it detects a possible fall, with the person's agreement. When something looks wrong, Meta's Muse Spark takes a second look before any alert goes out, and every family phone gets the alert with a plain-language reason in English or Traditional Chinese. Family members also get live phone-to-phone video and an activity history, on hardware they already own.
