From the What Will They Think Of Next For Tech…Pampers is launching a new line of SMART DIAPERS this fall. They monitor your baby’s sleep, and they also track when your baby pees and reports it to you immediately on your smartphone app. The diapers can’t detect poop though. Huggies released something similar last year that did track the ol’ #2. No word on Pampers pricing for the Lumi line, which comes with a monitor and a 10-day supply of Pampers.
