Owlet Selects OpenSynergy’s Blue SDK to Deliver Next-Generation Bluetooth® Connectivity in the Dream Sight™ Baby Monitor
Owlet, a pioneer in the smart infant monitoring category, announced today that it has chosen OpenSynergy’s Blue SDK—a leading independent Bluetooth® software stack—to power secure, stable, and high-performance connectivity for its newest baby monitor, the Dream Sight™ camera. This collaboration represents an important milestone in Owlet’s ongoing mission to provide families with reliable, intuitive technology that supports safer sleep and greater peace of mind.
Elevating Connectivity in Smart Baby Monitoring
As the smart nursery technology market continues to expand, parents are demanding not only more advanced features but also more dependable performance from their connected devices. Owlet has built its reputation on delivering smart monitoring solutions that help caregivers feel closer to their children—no matter where they are in the home. However, ensuring consistently strong, flexible, and secure Bluetooth performance across thousands of device types is an increasingly complex challenge.
To address this, Owlet’s engineering and product teams focused on redesigning and enhancing the connectivity foundation of the Dream Sight monitor. Through extensive customer feedback, user research, and product testing, Owlet identified that setup simplicity, connection stability, and smooth device interoperability were top priorities for families. Bluetooth performance sits at the heart of these user expectations, making the choice of Bluetooth stack a critical decision in the development process.
OpenSynergy’s Blue SDK, widely regarded for its flexibility, reliability, and independence from specific hardware controllers, emerged as the ideal partner for Owlet’s next-generation baby monitoring technology.
Seamless Interoperability Across Thousands of Devices
One of the longest-standing challenges in connected consumer devices—especially those that rely on Bluetooth pairing—is ensuring consistent compatibility across a vast ecosystem of smartphones, tablets, and operating systems. Consumers expect their devices to connect instantly and flawlessly, regardless of whether they use the latest iPhone, an older Android device, or a newer smartphone model with recently updated Bluetooth firmware.
OpenSynergy’s Blue SDK is designed specifically to address this fragmentation. Its independent, modular structure enables it to deliver stable Bluetooth functionality across thousands of device configurations. For Owlet, this means families can expect Dream Sight to pair smoothly with iOS® and Android™ devices of various versions and generations, greatly reducing the friction that can occur during initial setup or daily use.
This compatibility not only enhances the immediate user experience but also ensures that Dream Sight will remain reliable over time as mobile operating systems evolve. For a product used daily by busy caregivers who cannot afford connectivity hiccups, this stability is essential.
Accelerated Development Through Proven Bluetooth Technology
When designing the Dream Sight monitor, Owlet’s engineering team sought both technological performance and development efficiency. Building a secure, fully compliant Bluetooth stack from the ground up is a resource-intensive process. By selecting Blue SDK, Owlet accelerated its development timeline while maintaining high standards of performance, security, and reliability.
Burc Sahinoglu, Chief Technology Officer at Owlet, highlighted the value of the partnership:
“By integrating OpenSynergy’s Blue SDK, Owlet accelerated its development timeline and achieved high-quality performance across various Bluetooth configurations. Working with OpenSynergy allowed us to focus on ensuring our devices provide families with a secure and simple user experience, leveraging the state-of-the-art SDK to support additional Bluetooth features in the future.”
This acceleration benefited not just Owlet’s engineering team but also families eagerly awaiting the Dream Sight monitor. Faster development and validation cycles mean new innovations can reach the market more quickly—and Owlet can continue to improve the user experience through updates and feature enhancements supported by Blue SDK’s adaptable architecture.
Streamlined Bluetooth Qualification and Ongoing Security
Bluetooth qualification is a complex process that ensures devices meet strict standards for performance, interoperability, and reliability. Because Blue SDK is already pre-qualified by the Bluetooth SIG as an independent software component, Owlet was able to streamline the certification process for Dream Sight. This reduced development complexity, shortened certification timelines, and minimized risk of delays—all while maintaining compliance with industry requirements.
OpenSynergy also plays an active role in monitoring new Bluetooth-related vulnerabilities and ensuring its SDK is kept up to date. This commitment to ongoing security is crucial for a smart baby monitoring device, where protecting user data and preventing unauthorized access are fundamental responsibilities.
The combination of pre-qualified technology and continuous security oversight gives Owlet the confidence that its devices are built on a foundation capable of evolving alongside new standards, threats, and industry best practices.
A Major Milestone for Both Companies
This collaboration is more than just a technology upgrade—it is a strategic moment for both Owlet and OpenSynergy.
For Owlet, leveraging enterprise-grade Bluetooth technology means:
- Improved reliability across diverse mobile ecosystems
- Faster product development and testing cycles
- A strong platform for future Bluetooth-enabled features
- Greater confidence in long-term stability and compliance
These advantages directly translate to benefits for families, who rely on Owlet devices around the clock. Parents need to trust that their camera monitor will work consistently, day after day, without complicated troubleshooting or dropped connections. With the integration of Blue SDK, Owlet strengthens that trust.
For OpenSynergy, the partnership represents an expansion beyond its traditional markets. Although Blue SDK is widely used in automotive and industrial applications—where performance, reliability, and compliance are non-negotiable—its adoption by Owlet marks a significant entry into the consumer technology and smart home sectors.
Matthias Stumpf, Vice President of Sales at OpenSynergy, emphasized this milestone:
“We are thrilled to contribute to Owlet’s mission to create innovative and dependable connected baby monitors. Our collaboration demonstrates how robust, portable Bluetooth technology can help consumer brands, like Owlet, achieve faster time-to-market while giving parents greater peace of mind.”
This partnership serves as a compelling example of how industrial-grade technologies can elevate consumer-focused products, especially those designed for family and infant care.
