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.

“Our neurologist recommended the SAMi camera to us to rule out epilepsy. My daughter was having some abnormal facial movements while sleeping paired with a questionable EEG. The camera gave me so much peace of mind. I did have to play with the sensitivity alarm a bit only bc my daughters movements were smaller facial movements. Would recommend to anyone!”

“This product is a life saver. I can know sleep at night and my son be safe. Used to have a lot of sleepless nights. The peace of mind that the Sami gives my family is life changing. It is simple to use and install. The app is amazing as well. Sami makes everything simple so that you don’t have to worry about installation or how to use it. My son 10 is know able to sleep in his room alone with out mom or dad hovering over him to make sure he is not seizing at night.”

“The SAMi is very alert and also gives flexibility and options. I can hear sound or turn it off. Schedule times. Very clear picture. Even after years. We have a wonderful tech support family who helps when they can. I still have to figure out how to connect so I can show or email videos to our neurologist. Also wish there was a more secure network , even though it is a separate network to run it on. Don’t even want to think if anybody has tried to ever hack into it. Since we are watching our 16 year old, it seems very invasive, but unfortunately necessary to keep him safe and alive. Currently watching and listening for certain symptoms to decide if certain tests are necessary. All in all the SAMi 3 has been a game changer. It was our first support and peace of mind while also waiting for a Service Dog. Before SAMi 3 I have slept every night on the floor next to my son’s bed , if there was sleep to be had. I think it makes us all feel safer and gives us an opportunity to get a little sleep. I was finally able to sleep or be in my own bed while having the SAMi watch him and at the very least I could close my eyes and rest in between events. I would recommend to everyone in need of health monitoring who may need this for support, peace of mind. It is an absolute necessity item. A Service Dog is not for everyone, as it takes a lot of work and we are 2 caretakers on one patient. But the SAMi doesn’t need much work at all after the initial set up. If you can make the set up and settings a little easier (I have still not figured out how to set the time or date, we received it preprogrammed through a grant) THANK YOU , SAMi 3 for keeping my son alive and providing him help immediately when he needs it and giving us some relief during this dreaded and scary disease. Also, we have an iPod as Monitor, sometimes I wish the picture was a little bit bigger , like a tablet.”

“Sami has been a game changer for us. Night times were always a very anxious time, being worried to miss anything. Sami gives us the comfort that if something were to happen we would know about it and deal with it. You can set the sensitivity and time which I think is brilliant as it means it doesn’t go off constantly throughout the night for no reason. It’s easy to use and easy to set up. I would recommend this product every single time!”

“I am very impressed with the SAMi camera- it gives us peace of mind and has allowed my 11 year old son to sleep in his own room again. I like how I can customise the sensitivity to movement- it means we can pick up on both partial and generalised seizures and the alarm hasn't let us down. The function to keep videos to send to his consultant has also been fantastic. I would highly recommend this camera to anyone looking after someone with epilepsy.”

“Good quality camera. Maybe the recording settings could be more advanced (to set trashhold more exactly)”

Hi Andreja, can you explain what you mean by adjusting the threshold more for the recordings? Maybe we can help!

“We acquired the SAMi3 system for our autistic & epileptic child in March 2023. The software for replaying the recorded videos (as part of the SAMi3 software package) is not stable, and hangs up periodically, requiring a reboot of the system. This continues happening even after updating the software per the advice of the SAMi3 team. Since it is a very expensive investment, we are reluctant to dump it, and continue suffering through the hiccups it keeps having.”
