What is Cuddle Scan

Watching Over Them,
Degree by Degree.

Cuddle Scan is a continuous temperature monitoring device for newborns and older children being developed by Medline Robotics. An infra-red sensor inserted into a soft, adjustable waist band tracks the child's body temperature continuously and raises an alarm the moment it moves out of the safe range.

Infants and children up to 3 years have immature thermoregulation - they lose and gain heat rapidly, cannot shiver effectively, and cannot tell you when something is wrong. Cuddle Scan watches for them: hypothermia in newborns, rising fever at night, and the sudden spikes that precede febrile seizures - with visual and audio alerts on the device and instant notifications on the parent's phone.

Why It Matters

Little Bodies, Fragile Temperatures

Immature Thermoregulation - infants have fewer sweat glands, less muscle and fat, and a large surface-to-volume ratio - so they lose and gain heat far faster than adults.

Spot Checks Miss the Moment - thermometers show one reading at one time. A fever that spikes at 2 AM, or a newborn slipping into hypothermia, can go unnoticed for hours.

Febrile Seizure Risk - 5-10% of Indian children experience fever-related seizures. Early warning of a rising temperature gives parents time to act before the spike.

Key Features

Designed for Constant Care

01
Continuous IR Monitoring
An infra-red temperature sensor inserted into the waist band measures body temperature continuously - not just when someone remembers to check.
02
Out-of-Range Alarm
Set the safe range once. The moment the child's temperature deviates - fever or hypothermia - Cuddle Scan raises immediate visual and audio alerts.
03
Mobile App Notifications
Bluetooth connectivity with an iOS and Android app sends alerts straight to the parent's phone - so night-time monitoring does not mean staying awake.
04
Temperature History & Recall
Every reading is recorded and can be recalled - giving doctors a complete temperature curve instead of scattered spot checks when it matters most.
05
Comfortable Adjustable Band
Soft ABS waist band adjustable from 26 cm to 64 cm, in three sizes - newborns, toddlers up to 2 years, and children from 2 to 6 years.
06
Clinical-Grade Precision
Measures 32-42°C (89.6-107.6°F) with ±0.1°C accuracy, displayed in Celsius or Fahrenheit - dependable numbers parents and paediatricians can trust.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked

Cuddle Scan is a continuous temperature monitoring device being developed by Medline Robotics. An infra-red sensor sits inside a soft adjustable waist band and monitors the child's body temperature continuously, raising audio-visual alarms and mobile app alerts whenever the temperature moves out of the safe range.
From newborns up to children of about 6 years. The band comes in three adjustable sizes: 26-40 cm for newborns, 36-50 cm for toddlers up to 2 years, and 46-64 cm for children between 2 and 6 years.
The infra-red sensor measures body temperature across a 32-42°C (89.6-107.6°F) range with an accuracy of ±0.1°C, and can display readings in either Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Three ways: a visual indicator on the device, an audio alarm, and push notifications on the companion iOS/Android app connected over Bluetooth. All readings are also recorded so they can be reviewed later or shown to the paediatrician.
