The system works in automatic and manual mode. In manual mode you can monitor your pets status and check whether the feeding plate is empty or not, then you can feed your pet or give commands to the pet through the mobile application.

In manual mode you can feed your pet from anywhere in the world at any time by simply logon to the pet management control panel. For this you need a working internet connection with WiFi facility. In case of failure of internet connection, the device will automatically switch to auto mode. In automatic mode the system will feed your pet in preset time intervals. In auto mode the system also monitors pet's position and checks whether the plate is empty or not. The pets’ position is tracked using the Bluetooth beacon module and the plate is checked using computer vision. When the pet is away from the feeder after deploying food the system will play the recorded voice instructions. If the pet is not responding to the food the system will play the instructions a few more times. If the pet is still not responding to the food the owner will be notified. The system also monitors the main food container and notifies the owner when the supply is low. It will also notify the owner after every feed.
