Baby tech is a term for products and services that use IoT and ICT technologies to make childcare safer, more secure, and more efficient, and has been expanding in Europe and the U.S. in recent years.
In Japan, the use of this technology has begun in childcare facilities, where its usefulness in managing children, employees, and health conditions has been recognized, and interest in this field is expected to increase in the future.
