Tweeting Cat Collar by Sony
You might heard about a tweeting dog collar and the wireless dog collars that can send text message. And now Sony are embracing the idea of this kind of device for cats. They created a prototype tweeting cat collar, which Sony created in collaboration with the University of Tokyo.
The device can also send tweets to Twitter, but this time detailing what your cat is up to. The device, which is preliminarily named Cat@Log contains an accelerometer, GPS, and a built-in camera. The acceleration sensor can detects movement, and can also detect when your cat is eating or sleeping. The collar has is lightweight enough for small cats so that it doesn't cause any discomfort. Once the collar has detected that cat's activities, it will send a tweet about it via Bluetooth. So far the concept model can send one of eleven pre-set phrases, however they are working on adding more detailed informative tweets over time.
