      Hi Adiboo, thanks for the question, yes the technology is called ECG.

      It roughly works by creating a “wave” into the tummy and then catching the reflection of the “wave”. I am not quite sure how to explain the “wave” excatly but they are definuitely safe, and they work by creating a “sculpture” as a result of the patter of wave reflection. The “sculpture” is the baby image that we all know 🙂
