Infant care apparatus

Abstract

An infant care apparatus comprising: an infant holder; a multiple drive axis drive section coupled to the infant holder and having a plurality of motors configured to generate an action and a motion of the infant holder, the motion is a multiple degree of freedom motion where at least one axis of the motion is a Z-axis motion; a biometric sensor configured to observe at least one characteristic of an infant within the infant holder; and a controller arranged so as to learn how to soothe the infant within the infant holder and configured to employ a neural network or state machine that is communicably coupled to the biometric sensor and the multiple drive axis drive section, where the controller registers sensor data from the biometric sensor and effects, through the neural network or the state machine, a change in the action of the infant holder and the motion of the infant holder that effects a calming and soothing of a state of the infant within the infant holder, wherein the controller is configured to, based on biometric sensor input over time, learn infant reactions to the modification in the one or more of the action and the motion of the infant holder so as to adjust a subsequent application of the modification in the one or more of the action and the motion of the infant holder. modification in the one or more of the action and the motion of 20 26 21 07 96 30 J ul 2 02 6 3 0 J u l 2 0 2 6 2 0 2 6 2 1 0 7 9 6 o b s e r v e a t l e a s t o n e c h a r a c t e r i s t i c o f a n i n f a n t w i t h i n t h e m o d i f i c a t i o n i n t h e o n e o r m o r e o f t h e a c t i o n a n d t h e m o t i o n o f t h e m o d i f i c a t i o n i n t h e o n e o r m o r e o f t h e a c t i o n a n d t h e m o t i o n
