Nanit's proprietary line of Breathing Wear apparel integrates with the Nanit camera giving parents the ability to safely monitor their baby's breathing motion without sensors or wires. Together with the Nanit app, these products and features provide in-depth personalized insight available for helping babies, and parents, sleep well and feel confident during the crucial early years of a child's life.

The company has unveiled its next generation HD nursery camera the Nanit Pro alongside Smart Sheets, a first-of-its-kind textile that allows parents to measure their baby's height and track their growth using the Nanit camera's computer vision which can read the ink pattern on the Nanit crib sheet.
