The Challenge
DogWatch needed to develop an intelligent dog collar with both hidden fence and activity measuring capabilities to keep them at the leading edge of the pet market segment. They needed a system involving active collars and fence transmitters that communicate with a local Portal via radio.
Background
DogWatch has been making Hidden Dog Fence Systems since 1990 and is a pioneer in pet wearables.
The Solution
Spiria engineered a data collection software, a customer portal, a DPS (Dynamic Positioning System and a complete cloud-based system that transmits and translates data to users. The portal communicates directly with a cloud service that converts raw data to JSON messages. It passes these messages along to a Web server, which serves both the Web site and the app.
The Services
- Connected Device
- UX/UI design
- Software Development
- Cloud infrastructure
- Web App development
The Results
The new offering adds Fitbit-like capabilities to the collar for dog owners to monitor their pets via Web browser or mobile phone. The solution delivers in real-time the collar’s data into user-friendly information for pet owners. Dog owners can see how active their dog has been and feel confident that their dog is safely within the boundaries of their property.
Spiria continues to be a trusted partner we turn to for our IoT development and support. Their team has a wealth of experience in the field of embedded software and product development. This expertise and their flexible engagement models make them an obvious choice.
