MADRID (Reuters) - A Spanish inventor, intrigued by his son's incessant crying, has designed a detector that he says will tell harassed parents within 20 seconds if their baby is hungry, bored, tired, stressed or uncomfortable.

Electronic engineer Pedro Monagas said Tuesday the gadget called "Why Cry" would go on sale at pharmacies in Spain by the end of the month for $93.

"I started (studying) the different kinds of cries of my son. Then I continued on 100 babies," Monagas told radio station Cadena Ser.

He said he identified five distinct crying types, which the noise-sensitive gadget is able to recognize.

The device, the size of a calculator and powered by batteries, has five faces on a screen on the back representing the possible reasons why a baby is crying.

"When the baby cries, it sets off the Why Cry and in 20 seconds the little faces light up," Monagas said.

The Catalan inventor, who plans to give a share of any profits to a baby charity, is already working on a more advanced model to "make the family environment a little easier."

My goodness !!! I will fly to Spain to get one of these. :D

silly Spaniards.
 

Need this device?

Because you can't use your nose to find out if the baby smells, your math skills to figure out how long it's been since he/she ate, or your eyes to find out if he/she's teething?

Waste of money.

I already have this..
 

its called MOTHER'S INTUITION also known as COMMON SENSE!!!!!!!!!!

Just like a man.... ha ha

I think this device is the equivalent of a baby mood ring, and we all know how cheap and useless mood rings are.

Lazy Parents
 

I agree with Lovelyivy84 and Nikki1920.
What happened to taking your time to LEARN
about your child?
