    They keep using the term “motion sensor,” probably to avoid saying “this device that you will place next to your kid’s bed has a camera and an internet connection.”

      The features described could be accomplished with a PIR motion sensor. I don’t see any reason they’d go to the expense of adding a camera, especially since infrared is better for operating in the dark like you’d expect for an alarm clock that’ll need to be able to wake kids at 6am in the winter.
