About SAMi The Sleep Activity Monitor:

SAMi® is a video-based sleep activity monitor for parents, caregivers and individuals that need to watch carefully for unusual movements at night. SAMi can detect and alarm on all types of movement, with settings that can be easily customized to your individual needs. During sleep, the SAMi camera's proprietary technology monitors for unusual or abnormal movement in the field of view. When abnormal movement is detected, an alarm sounds on the Apple device running the SAMi iOS app (iPhone / iPod / iPad / Mac) and displays a live video / audio feed. Within seconds, the individual or caregiver can take any necessary action. SAMi will not only reliably alert you to abnormal movement, but automatically records high quality video and audio of the event, providing invaluable video evidence for Neurologists, Epileptologists, and other Healthcare providers to accurately diagnose and prescribe effective treatment plans. For more information, visit SAMi’s website at www.samialert.com.

“I bought the entire set so it can also travel with my grandson. I bought it for my daughters family as her son had a severe seizure. They are very happy with it thus far. It has eased her stress so she can sleep knowing he’s being watched. Thank you for providing a great product.”

“Super impressed! So easy to set up and use, even with my minimal tech skills. Best sleep in well over a year, since my son's first seizure. Such a game changer for me, especially as a single parent. The lights don't bother my kiddo, like the ones on a traditional camera I had tried. He doesn't notice it's there, and I get wonderful calm and peaceful nights. Thanks SAMi! Y'all are awesome!”

“What a wonderful bit of kit! We can finally sleep at night without being scared! It's not just about how amazing the item is though but the customer service. You're part of a big family and any queries are seen to so so quickly. They even check up on you to make sure things are still well. Thank you so much. You can tell its a company run with love and care!”

“We absolutely LOVE the SAMI camera. It was obviously designed with care. I have slept so much more soundly in the past 2 weeks I've owned this than I have in months. The first night with SAMi we had a few false alarms, but that was no problem because I could sleep better knowing that the system would alert us if necessary. And after making some adjustments, we get almost no false alarms. Now that I see this camera in action, I am SO glad we chose this option over any other device. I love that it shows a recorded history of any movement throughout the night, so you can review it in the morning and make sure you didn't miss a medical event. I'm so grateful for this device and highly recommend it.”

“We are very happy to be able to monitor my child's seizures during the night with the SAMI device. My husband had no trouble setting up the device, although he does have experience in computer technology. My only complaint is we would have referred the I-Pad Mini rather than the larger I-Pad which came with the device. The large format is not conducive to sitting on a small bedside table, which is where we need it. The I-Pad mini would be much better size for this, and still large enough to view the seizure activity.”

Hi Judy, From time to time, we have iPad mini's available for purchase but must have been out of stock when you purchased. You can always purchase an Apple iOS of your choosing and download the SAMi App to that device for monitoring. Best, Trevor

“SAMi has been an amazing addition to our home because it gives us peace of mind that we couldn’t get before. SAMi has done a great job alerting us to movement while our daughter is sleeping, which has allowed us to catch seizures that we wouldn’t have caught otherwise, which allowed us to intervene and help her. It’s also allowed us to get more sleep, knowing she’s being monitored. Extra sleep is hard to come by in our household and is extremely valuable. Customer service has been impeccable and we’re grateful for the whole team and all that they do.”

“SAMi Cam has been a life changer for our family. The ability to detect seizures has been lifesaving for our son with refractory epilepsy.”

“Seizures can be difficult to recognize by machines. The different kinds don't look like each other, don't feel like each other. Most focus on certain types of movement; muscle clenching, thrashing, the larger the movement the easier it is for a machine to recognize. Unfortunately, that doesn't work for more than a small segment of the population. SAMi focuses on movement, but brings a nice balance between constant alarms when your loved one turns over and missing out on quieter seizures. It has a 'movement monitor' which glows red following changing movements. This can include opening eyes. The alarm intensity is customizable and can be turned on and off during certain hours. It includes customizable sound which on the high end can pick up turning over, changing breath, and quiet rustling at a level which can wake up the caregiver (YMMV). It also records video of small movements and changes, so caregivers can browse through to see absence or atypical seizures in the middle of the night. Movements of interest can be locked and emailed to you or a physician.”

“We love our SaMi. It has brought a lot of peace of mind in our home. Ever since we received it we installed it which was so easy and self-explanatory. The customer service has been great even though I would have loved it if we had been able to have a call, too it gets the job done faster than all the back-and-forth emails. What I love the most is being notified with every movement even though we get false alarms but also being able to look though past recordings, and save the ones are important like the ones with a seizure or an odd movement. Thank you SaMi team for bringing peace of mind into our home!”

“I'm still learning the quirks but it alerts me for movement. Just make sure to use it consistently because my daughter was sleeping with me for a while and when she finally slept in her room again I had to reinstall it and connect it to wifi”

“Sami cam has been the best thing for our family. It alerted us to seizures we didn’t even know our daughter was having and records them so we can show her doctor. We are very happy with it! Wish we would have had it sooner.”

“A Guardian Angel in Our Darkest Hours ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our Dravet syndrome journey has been marked by unimaginable challenges, including the sudden loss of our daughter to SUDEP. Sleep support became crucial for our surviving twin and for all of us seeking peace in the nights. SAMi, like a dependable friend, provides priceless security, offering comfort and watchfulness that has become indispensable in our lives. It's more than a machine; SAMi is now a cherished part of our family, offering the sleep support and peace of mind we desperately needed.”

“Our daughter's condition has a high prevalence of seizures yet she's been fortunate enough to not have experienced them as of today. We keep a close on her during the day, and at night by co-sleeping. Having the SAMi watch over our daughter provides an additional layer of comfort for us being able to monitor her movements and sleep patterns to evaluate if seizures were present. Traditional cameras do not provide the added benefits of the SAMi in these sensitive situations.”

“SAMi provided my family with a sense of security. My child's seizures were at night and she didn't always wake herself up. For a parent that can be absolutely terrifying. We were able to take recordings to the neurologist for them to see the activity. We are so thankful for SAMi!”
