The present invention provides a quick release monitoring tag holder attached to cow's neck by a collar, comprising a first slot and a second slot configured for accommodating said collar therein; and a recess, provided in between said slots, configured for accommodating an identification tag having an upper portion and relatively smaller bottom portion, which is at least partially accommodated within said recess.

A pet tracking assembly includes a collar that is wearable around a neck of a pet. A light emitter is coupled to the collar to emit light outwardly from the collar when the light emitter is turned on. A monitoring unit is integrated into the collar and the monitoring unit is in wireless communication with a wireless internet router that is associated with the owner of the pet. The light emitter is turned on when the monitoring unit senses the signal from the wireless internet router has fallen below a pre-determined signal strength. Additionally, the monitoring unit broadcasts an alert to a personal electronic device when the monitoring unit senses the signal from the wireless internet router has fallen below the pre-determined signal strength. In this way the user is alerted that the pet has moved beyond the pre-determined distance from the wireless internet router.

A system, method, and non-transitory computer readable medium for using a smart collar to monitor a pet are described. The system includes a smart collar, a mobile computing device including a display screen, and a pet monitoring mobile application stored on the mobile computing device. The smart collar includes a global positioning receiver, a communications device, an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display, a rechargeable battery, and a microcontroller. The microcontroller calculates a distance of a current location of the smart collar from a desired location, determines when the distance is greater than a first distance threshold, and generates a communications packet including the current location, the perimeter, and the distance of the smart collar from the desired location, and transmits the communications packet. The mobile computing device receives the communications packet, and the pet monitoring mobile application displays the current location on a display screen of the mobile computing device.

Systems and methods for identifying and tracking pets by use of a pet identification tag or image recognition techniques are disclosed. In exemplary embodiments, a mobile computing device communicates with a pet identification tag over a near-field communication link and a remote server over a wireless communication link. The mobile computing device is configured to identify a pet based on a unique identifier for the tag and/or to provide an image of a pet to the remote server, and to download information about the pet from the remote server using the unique identifier or pet image.

An extendable-retractable pet leash includes a housing with a spring-actuated take-up reel. A personal protection device is mounted on the housing and can comprise, for example, an extendable-retractable knife, a taser or a siren. The housing also mounts a light for illuminating a surrounding area. The leash, personal protection device and light can all be operated by actuators mounted on the housing for convenience, one-handed operation.

An animal tethering, assistive cane, and personal defense combination device incorporating user mobility and self-defense features includes a housing that defines an interior space. A leash is coupled to the housing and is positioned in the interior space. The leash is retractable type so that a cord of the leash is selectively extensible from the housing through an aperture. A user is positioned to couple the cord to a domestic animal to leash the domestic animal. A pole that is coupled to and extends from the housing comprises a plurality of nested sections so that the pole is selectively extensible and configured to serve as a mobility aid. A stun gun that is coupled to the pole distal from the housing is configured to administer an electrical shock to an attacker to incapacitate the attacker.

An orientation indicator device that includes a band having an interior side, an exterior side, and a length to wrap around a neck of an animal. The orientation indicator device includes at least one fiducial marker attached to the band that is visible from the exterior side of the band to denote an orientation of the animal. The orientation indicator device includes a tag coupled to the band to hang by gravity from under the neck. The band is in the form of a collar with fasteners to fasten the collar around the neck. A system is also disclosed that includes a walk-in analysis zone. The orientation indicator device and a computer vision system, in the walk-in analysis zone, identify an orientation of an animal in the zone by capturing the orientation indicator device and dimensions of a body of the animal.

A system that includes a persuasion delivery device to deliver a persuasion to an animal to persuade the animal into a walk-in analysis zone for conducting an examination session. The system includes a set of sensors to sense in real-time at least one biological parameter to create real-time biological data. Each sensor has a sample collector in the walk-in analysis zone to capture a respective biological parameter. The system includes at least one processor to analyze the real-time biological data and at least one of: recommending animal feed nutrients based on the analyzed real-time biological data; identifying the at least one biological parameter on a user interface; and causing a feed making machine to make animal feed based on the recommended animal feed nutrients.

Methods, systems, and device for animal wearable technology are provided in accordance with various embodiments. Some embodiments include an animal wearable device that includes: a securing apparatus configured to be worn by an animal; multiple stimulation components coupled with different portions of the securing apparatus; and/or a computerized controller coupled with the securing apparatus and the multiple stimulation components. The computerized controller may be configured to provide stimulation to the animal through the multiple stimulation components. The computerized controller may be configured to separately and/or independently control each stimulation components from the multiple stimulation components. Some embodiments include a method that includes: determining one or more signals at a computerized controller coupled with a securing apparatus configured to be worn by an animal; and/or activating, based on the one or more determined signals, one or more stimulation components from multiple stimulation components coupled with different portions of the securing apparatus.
