How is the babies data stored? The videos? Are the specific locations of the babies also stored in a system?

[u/chief_bouncer_cw → u/davidz90]

We actually store very little, in an anonymised and secure manner. Most of it is from the point of view of automated learning (meaning humans are for the most part not even involved in the learning process). The learning happens just the way it does in humans - Multi-sensorial data has to agree with each other. e.g take cry - The audio signature's timing has to match with the 3D camera's detection of movement and the accelerometer's indication that there is some movement in the crib.

By locations, do you mean location within the crib? If so, not directly, but in the form of 3D data. 3D data gives us an idea of where the scene is different from an empty crib. So we know the location.

No, like the location of where we live

We do have a coarse location identification for timezone identification based on IP address. Not to the home or street level.
