What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This wireless sensor detects baby sounds and transmits a signal to receivers throughout the home, converting audio alerts into visual or vibrating notifications. It's designed for parents or caregivers who are deaf or hard of hearing and need a reliable way to know when a baby is crying without relying on hearing the sound directly. The sensor itself is just one piece — it requires a compatible Serene CentralAlert base receiver (model 731041) and any additional receivers placed around the home to actually deliver the visual or tactile alerts. Battery life runs about 10 months, and sensitivity can be adjusted with a three-position switch, but keep in mind this sensor will trigger on any loud sound near the baby, not just crying, which can mean occasional false alerts.
