App-Connected Night Lights

Hatch Baby 'Rest' is a Light, Sound Machine and Ok-to-Wake Tool

— December 21, 2016 — Tech
Hatch Baby 'Rest' is a three-in-one smart night light for infants. The two-piece system consists of a physical night light, which takes the form of a tabletop illuminator rather than a wall plugin, and an app.

As well as serving as a colorful night light that can be customized by hue and brightness, Rest also serves as a sound machine and an ok-to-wake machine to gently rouse toddlers from bed. Since the device is entirely app-controlled, this gives parents the freedom to change the gadget's settings from afar, whether they are preparing for a nightly nursing session or giving a growing child more independence when it comes to waking themselves up in the morning.

The Hatch Baby Rest is just one of the innovative infant products that the brand will be showing off at this year's CES 2017.
