GeoPet H+

Inspiration

Our pets who stay at home have to stay either inside the house or outside in the yard. If our pets stays indoors it is complicated for them to do their basic needs, they also might play around and make mischief. If our pets stays in the yard, they will be exposed to the weather and other factors. There is a real need to take care of our pets when we leave them alone at home and to be able to interact with them remotely. Pets are alone for most of the working hours of a day.

What it does

Smart access system for pets Pet finder inside home or yard Outside home geofence Dog shelter/pound search Auto-alerts to dog shelters with your pet’s picture if your dog leaves the home geofence Auto facebook post of lost pet, after x min. Auto e-mail to shelter / pound Pet recognition system with august doorbell cam pro Control pet home access (breed) August smart lock Pet health Track pet's activity Dog necessities (poop) Food & water Movement (calories) Illness detection Pet pulse monitoring Nearby clinics notification, current location comparison.

How we built it

To create our project we used differents API'S from Kinship, August and Intersystems, first we worked with the devices to know how can we use them, then we started working principally with Postman to send data from August, Receive data from Intersystems so we can link them, we create a DataBase with Intersystems to have a the Register of users with the pet's ID and User's Email.

Challenges we ran into

It was really hard to integrate in one demo all the things that we developed.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud of being able to surpass the challenge of image recognition, it seemed like a challenge for the progam to be able to take screenshots of the live feed due to the coding language that we were using, but at the end, we were able to make it work. We're also proud of being able to connect August, Intersystems and Kinship in a single efficient product.

What we learned

Even though it seemed easy to make an automization system to be able to send emails and tweets depending on a certain scenario, we were able to fix some certain issues that we encountered along the way.

Created by

Team leader, organized the team by tasks and goals, I worked on the back end, first time using node js, I made a connection between node js and Matlab. Used IBM Watson Studio to design and train an image recognition software to recognize pets by breed, exported and implemented it in node js. I served as backup for team members to help them overcome technical problems.

I worked on the front-end, I had never use html and css as much at this time. Also I worked in the integration of a system that posts automatically a tweet with a photo and sending a voice notification to the owner´s phone at the moment the pet gets out the geofence.

I worked on the back end and interacts systems like receive email's with an app so we can produce a notification alert in a cellphone telling you that probably you lost your pet, also i worked with the August system making a program that can controll the lock door if the camera detecteds your pet with face recognition. Also i helped mi teammates with their parts to make de work flow a lot smoother like with a front end/back and or DataBase

I worked on the automization of email alerts in case of an emergency, also with setting up a Database with intersystems for our pet's activities and for the emails. I also was helping my teammates with some of their parts to make the work flow a lot smoother.
