Why are you crying?

This device, which has now become an app, is called "Why Cry Baby Analyzer" and its purpose is to tell you why your baby has been drilling your ears for minutes, showing no signs of calming down. It displays a smiley face that suggests the cause of the crying, according to the diagram on the side, as well as the room temperature and humidity.

According to the manufacturers, within 20 seconds it can tell you if the infant is stressed, sleepy, hungry, in pain, or simply pissed off. This claim is not without scientific basis, as some studies have shown that newborn crying is not entirely personalized, but has some common characteristics related to the cause.

The device is presented like this:

Controlling the cries of an inconsolable baby is one of the first true tests any parent goes through. It’s one of those things that will keep you up all night regardless of which sleep medication you prefer. Sure, you have to be to work at sunrise, but they don’t know that! All they know is that they are NOT happy! And while putting in Episode IV may work when you’re upset, children are an entirely different monster (think more Godzilla, rather than Sloth).

The Why Cry Baby Analyzer is the baby monitor of your dreams! Its advanced frequency analysis technology only needs 20 seconds to let you know why your child is screaming to the heavens. Whether your baby is Stressed, Sleepy, Annoyed, Bored or Hungry, this device will identify it on its LCD screen. In addition to being very portable (adjustable velcro strap for easy attachment), it comes equipped with a symptoms chart and guide with tips on how to properly stimulate your child’s development. Not to mention being your ticket to some peace and quiet!
