Technical Specifications

FrameTypically made of sturdy, non-toxic materials such as wood, metal (like stainless steel), or high-quality plastic.
SidesOften feature slats (with specific spacing requirements to prevent entrapment), mesh panels for airflow and visibility, or fabric.
MattressA firm, flat, and snugly fitting mattress is crucial for safety to reduce the risk of SIDS and suffocation; no extra bedding should be used.
FinishPaints and finishes should be non-toxic and child-safe.
Sleeping Surface AreaTypically ranges between 4000 cm² and 5500 cm² (e.g., a specific model measures 103 L x 56 W x 80 H cm).
Weight CapacityUsually designed to support infants up to around 15 kg (approx. 0-24 months, depending on the model).
HeightMany modern cradles feature adjustable height settings to match the parent's bed height for co-sleeping arrangements.
MovementDesigned to rock or swing. Movement types can be tilting (forward/backward), yawing (side-to-side), or a combination.
ManualTraditional cradles require human power for motion.
Automatic (Mechatronic)Motorized systems use sensors (e.g., sound/cry detectors, motion sensors) to automatically initiate rocking. Motion parameters are often designed to mimic human gait, with recommended vertical amplitudes of around ±15 mm and frequencies up to 2 Hz (for safety).
Locking MechanismsMust include a mechanism to lock the cradle into a stationary position when unattended.
PortabilityMany models include wheels with brakes to allow for easy and safe movement between rooms.
SensorsIntegrated sensors can monitor various conditions:
Sound sensorsDetect crying to trigger automatic responses or alerts.
Wet sensorsAlert parents to a wet mattress for hygiene.
Temperature/Humidity sensorsMonitor the environment and send notifications if conditions are outside the optimal range.
Motion/Position sensorsTrack baby movement and position to ensure safe sleep posture.
ConnectivityOften connect to a mobile application via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, providing real-time data, alerts, and remote control of features
