SUMMARY:

The existence of mixed families, where people with and without disabilities coexist, can surpass statistics in real numbers. When it comes to deafness, this relationship presents particular scenarios since deaf individuals face difficulties in performing daily activities, such as identifying when a newborn child is crying. In this work, Buátech is presented, an assistive technology device that identifies the baby's cry, it is similar to an electronic babysitter, but differing from these by being designed and developed for use by deaf parents. The model consists of communication between two units, where one of them acts as one of the extremes of an electronic babysitter, collecting and processing the environment's audio, differentiating it from the other sounds present in the environment through artificial intelligence techniques, sending a signal to the other unit which is responsible for a warning signal in the form of a vibration, as well as alerting the user about the baby's cry. These techniques allow the processing of signals and identify which signals represent crying. Among the techniques used, the prototype that includes knowledge of digital signal processing, embedded systems and machine learning showed better results.
