AI-equipped Catlog collar alerts users when their feline is experiencing stress
Rabo, a leading pet technology company, has taken a significant step forward in pet care with the update of its Catalog cat collar and app. The new version incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning to monitor a cat’s stress levels, providing pet owners with an advanced tool to remotely monitor their feline companions' emotional state.
The AI-driven stress monitoring function processes **10 billion data points from 46,000 cats** to learn patterns in feline behaviour and physiology. This vast dataset enables the system to detect signs of elevated stress by comparing current measurements to historical behavioural logs and physiological norms for each cat. When stress levels rise, the app notifies the owner with a special stress-level alert icon, a cat head silhouette with a lightning bolt superimposed.
The smart collar is equipped with multiple sensors, tracking temperature, breathing readings, and other deviations from a cat’s normal behaviour and bodily states. By analysing these inputs, the AI can dynamically track stress levels, improving early detection of potential health or emotional issues.
The app complements this stress monitoring by tracking other behaviours like eating, sleeping, grooming, and activity patterns. This comprehensive approach provides pet owners with a detailed picture of their cat’s wellbeing and alerts them to changes before they become serious problems.
In addition to stress monitoring, the Catalog app continues to monitor and report back on various cat activities such as eating, drinking water, sleeping, running, walking, resting, and vomiting (beta). This feature is particularly useful if a cat goes missing, as it provides information about the location, health, and mood of the animal.
In conclusion, Rabo’s AI-powered system offers an advanced and personalized way to help pet owners monitor their cat’s emotional state remotely and respond promptly to stress signals detected via the smart collar. The updated Catalog cat collar and app provide a valuable tool for cat owners, offering increased feature count and potential usefulness due to the addition of Artificial Intelligence smarts.
The AI-driven stress monitoring function in Rabo's updated Catalog cat collar and app uses data from 46,000 cats to track stress levels, incorporating technology to compare current measurements with each cat's historical behavior and physiological norms. By understanding lifestyle patterns, the system dynamically monitors stress levels, helping pet owners respond promptly to signs of elevated stress with a special alert icon. The comprehensive app also tracks other pet activities like eating, sleeping, grooming, and running, offering pet owners a detailed insight into their cat's wellbeing.
