Movement
Track changes
in movement.
A motion sensor is planned to capture changes in movement. We’ll need to validate how clothing movement relates to your baby’s movement.
MovementPlanned trend, not a sleep-stage score
Nova Clip · baby monitoring In development
A clip-on sensor
for your baby’s
movement and sound.
Planned baby monitoring in the Nova Baby app: movement and sound beside your baby’s sleep log.
Nova Clip would attach to your baby’s clothes, send readings through the included USB hub, and show movement and sound trends in Nova Baby. You would log sleep in the app.

What Nova Clip is designed to measure
Your baby’s movement and sound.
Beside their sleep log.
The planned Nova Clip view is for monitoring your baby’s movement and sound activity. See those trends beside the sleep you manually log for your baby.
Track changes
Sound
See sound activity
over time.
A microphone is planned to add sound-activity trends. Fabric noise and everyday sounds need careful testing before any fussiness estimates.

Together in Nova
Compare with
your sleep log.
Explore those trends beside the sleep you manually log in Nova. Useful context is the goal; understanding every waking isn’t a promise.

The planned Nova Clip view in Nova Baby would show your baby’s movement and sound trends beside their sleep log. Review these together in one app.
- Movement and sound activity over time
- Your manually logged sleep alongside the trends
- Sensor connection and last-update information
- Core Clip trends planned without a required subscription

These features are not available in Nova yet. Movement does not prove sleep, and sound does not prove fussiness.

An honest first version
Rechargeable sensor.
Plug-in hub.
A sage, 3D-printed case with a proposed spring clip. The sensor would connect wirelessly to the included hub, which sends data to Nova.
- 01
A rechargeable sensor
Planned motion and sound sensing in one capsule. Charging would happen only after removing it from clothing and the child.
- 02
A hub that stays plugged in
USB power and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi, with planned setup through Nova on iPhone. The hub and cable stay out of children’s reach.

Designed, then tested
Attachment, placement, battery life and data quality still need validation. These images show the proposed design, not instructions for use.

The little details
Good questions.
Can I buy Nova Clip today?
Not yet. This is a product concept in development. Joining the list tells us you’re interested at the £79 target price; it doesn’t reserve a unit or create an order. We’ll email you if there’s a launch to share.
Will it tell me when my baby is asleep or fussy?
That is something we want to investigate, not an established capability. The initial idea is movement and sound trends alongside manually logged sleep. Sleep and fussiness estimates would need separate validation; we aren’t promising sleep stages, automatic sleep logging or a particular accuracy.
Is it a breathing monitor or safety alarm?
Breathing, heart-rate monitoring and emergency alerts are outside the proposed features. Nova Clip should not be relied on to prevent SIDS, detect danger or replace supervision and safer-sleep guidance. Attachment and suitability for infant use must be assessed before a product is offered.
How would it attach, and how long would it last?
The proposed design uses a broad spring clip and a rechargeable battery. We haven’t validated garment compatibility, placement or runtime yet. The first engineering steps are enclosure and grip tests on fabric samples, then power and signal-quality measurements. We won’t give a battery-life promise before testing it.
Does the microphone record conversations?
The intended feature is sound activity, not a live audio monitor. Audio processing, storage, permissions and retention are still being designed; we are not promising that raw audio never leaves the device. Those details would be explained before any purchase or use. This website collects no microphone audio or sensor data.
How is this different from Nova Room?
Nova Room is our separate £59 concept for temperature, humidity and light around the room. Nova Clip explores movement and sound with a clothing sensor and hub. Each has its own launch list; joining one does not sign you up for the other.
