What is it?
An ultra-secure baby monitor with many features.
Good points?
One of the standout features of the Proscenic BM300 is its high-definition video quality. The monitor boasts a sharp and clear display in 1920x1080 pixels.
A 10-degree field of view with wide-angle lens and pan/tilt motion allows parents to observe their baby’s activities with precision, even in low-light conditions thanks to its non-intrusive invisible infrared night vision technology. This is ideal as there are no red dots or lights to disturb the baby during the night.
The monitor display and camera come pre-paired so are ready to use, negating any major set-up requirements. They communicate via orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing which is point-to-point encrypted and keeps data transmission on many narrower and more secure bands rather than one wide-band frequency.
The real-time two-way audio communication feature allows parents to hear their baby and also speak to them through the monitor. The VOX mode combined with the sensitivity of the microphone is finely tuned to pick up even the softest sounds, ensuring that no baby coos or cries go unnoticed.
A 3,600mAh rechargeable battery gives up to 12 hours of continual usage which helps power additional features including lullaby music to soothe your little one and a novel feeding alarm to maintain a routine.
Bad points?
The secure closed communications system means that there are no available updates that can be downloaded from the internet.
Best for ...
Parents seeking to ensure the safety and well-being of their little ones while maintaining privacy.
Avoid if ...
You’d prefer the option to save recorded video direct to the cloud for convenience.
Score: 9/10.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
