Color Baby Monitor Information

The video below shows a real life example of a video baby monitor being used:




Color Baby Monitors are really the wave of the future in the world of childcare. They allow you to view a real time color image your child on a portable LCD Screen. The unit is a completely wireless video system. This allows you to take your portable video monitor viewing receiver anywhere in the house with you so you can always keep a mindful watch on your sleeping child.

A reliable, high quality video monitor is one of the most important items that a parent should have. Even if you are not a parent, a Color Baby Monitor makes a fantastic baby shower gift that any soon to be mom would love to get.





What is a Color Baby Monitor?

A Color Baby Monitor is a wireless video monitoring system that transmits color video and audio to a portable hand held viewing device. It is used for baby monitoring, and is designed to replace the audio-only baby monitor.

How does a Video Baby Monitor Work?

There are two main pieces that comprise a video baby monitor viewing system. There is a Transmitter which transmits the color video, and high quality audio to the second piece, the Receiver. The Color Baby Monitor Receiver displays the picture and sound, and is completely wireless. This means that you can carry the Receiver with you anywhere you go. Most receivers will also display sound levels with LED light indicators, and have the option of turning the video feature off and on, while still hearing audio.

What is the transmission range for a Color Baby Monitor?

A video baby monitor can transmit its color picture up to an approximate range of 350 ft. To put that into perspective, that is longer than a football field! With this range you will have no problem receiving a crisp, color image of your child from anywhere in your home.

Is there any Installation required with a Video Monitor System?

The only installation required when setting up a Color Baby Monitor system is simply plugging the unit in. There are no complex setup steps to follow, and the unit begins working immediately. Also because the unit is wireless, there are no cables to run through your house. A video monitor is considered to be a "Plug and Play" unit because you just plug it in, and watch the video play on the monitor's receiver.

Can a Color Baby Monitor transmit video in the dark?

Yes. Most models come equipped with LED Infrared lights that automatically switch your system to night vision when no light is detected. This allows you to keep an eye on your child while they are sleeping in very low light, or complete darkness.

Are Video Monitors safe to use?

Color Baby Monitors are designed with your child's well being in mind. There is no possibility of the unit harming your child, and the video signal they transmit is non-detectable to other wireless devices. The Transmitter and Receiver operate on their own frequency so other units in the area are not able to view the same signal of your child they emit.

How much do Color Baby Monitors cost, and where can I purchase one?

Most video monitoring units range in price from 100-200 dollars. There are less expensive models available, but the quality of the video and audio is much less than that of the more expensive units.
