Ringtone we’ll be using for the project

Rating 3.8

When our robot find out that the baby’s diaper is wet, she will blink her eyes, shout out loud (it helps as well for the visually challenged). At the same time, if you are watching movies downstairs or in your neighbor’s house, it will send you an email or text message.

In our project, when our phone receives a text message or email from the robot, it will alert you to change baby’s diaper and play a cute baby crying sound, downloaded from the Internet. Click here to hear or download it
