Smart pyjamas developed to monitor the breathing patterns of slumbering
astronauts are being adapted for infants to warn parents when they may be at
risk from cot death. In many developed countries, sudden infant death syndrome

old. The snug-fitting pyjamas are equipped with sensors to monitor breathing
patterns and heartbeat. An alarm is triggered when a child shows the warning
signs of SIDS.
