The Application of Bluetooth Low Energy and Cellular IoT Wearable Devices in Pet CareAuthor：Abluetech Time：2023-11-08
As technology continues to evolve, Bluetooth Low energy and cellular IoTwearables are changing the way we live. Especially when it comes to pet care, these technologies provide a more convenient and efficient way for pet owners.
The role of pets in the family has changed a lot since the 1970s, and pets have become an important part of modern family life. They are not only our companions and sources of entertainment, but also our friends and family members. Pets play a variety of roles, and they can provide us with companionship, comfort, alarm, and movement. For example, dogs can act as therapists, able to reduce our stress and depressive symptoms. Cats act as placebos, helping to lower blood pressure and heart rate.
This shows that people are now more interested in keeping their pets safe, healthy and happy, however, this is not easy. For example, according to Australian pet supply chain PetBarn, the average adult dog needs 30 to 60 minutes of exercise a day, and more for energetic breeds and working breeds, but increasingly busy lives can make it difficult to ensure pets get the right amount of exercise. Lost pets are also an important problem. Curious animals are easy to get lost, but hard to find. According to the Humane Society of the United States, nearly 10 million dogs and cats are lost each year in the United States alone.
How Can Technology Help with Pet Care?
- Remote Monitoring
Humans can tell each other what they need, but for cats or dogs that can only "meow" or "bark," it's not so simple, and Bluetooth Low Energy and cellular IoT technology can help us achieve remote monitoring of pets. Through the smart collar worn on the pet, we can know the location of the pet in real time, exercise and physiological conditions and other information. This information can be sent wirelessly to our phones or computers, allowing us to keep an eye on our pets at home, no matter where we are.
- Contingency Handling
Bluetooth Low Energy and cellular IoT technologies can also help us deal with pet accidents. For example, if a pet gets lost, a smart collar can help us quickly find the lost pet through GPS tracking. In addition, if the pet has an accident, the smart collar can also notify us in time through the emergency call function, so that we can take measures as soon as possible.
Application Prospects in Other Fields
The use of Bluetooth Low Energy and cellular IoT wearables for pet sitting is not limited to the home. In fact, these technologies have a wide range of applications in other fields.
- Home Care
In the field of home care, Bluetooth low power and cellular IoT technologies can help the elderly better manage their health and life. For example, by wearing a smart bracelet or smart shoes, the elderly can monitor their exercise, heart rate and sleep quality in real time. When there is an abnormal situation, the smart device can issue an alarm in time, so that the family or medical staff can take timely measures.
- Health Management
In the field of health management, Bluetooth low energy and cellular IoT technologies are also promising. For example, smartwatches can monitor our heart rate, blood pressure and blood oxygen in real time, helping us to detect health problems in time. At the same time, by connecting with medical institutions, smart devices can also realize functions such as remote diagnosis and treatment and health guidance, improving our health level and quality of life
The use of Bluetooth Low Energy and cellular IoT wearables in pet sitting and other areas demonstrates the powerful potential of the technology not only to directly benefit cats and dogs, but also to confirm that these furry companions are safe and happy, and give owners peace of mind. In addition, thanks to the data provided by pet wearables, people are learning more about the lives of their pets, thereby improving the lives of these important family members. With the continuous advancement and popularization of technology, we have reason to believe that life will become more convenient, intelligent and beautiful in the future.
