Delivered: AI-vision camera feeder
Smart Pet Feeders
The feeder is where a pet-tech brand earns repeat purchases: it works every day, so reliability is the product. We have developed and shipped an AI-vision camera feeder that runs embedded Linux with an on-device NPU: it tracks the pet with its pan-tilt camera, recognises individual pets in a multi-pet home, checks the bowl before dispensing and gives each animal its own portion, all on the device. The same base serves dry-food, ceramic-bowl and multi-pet variants.
What makes or breaks this product
Kibble is not a standard part. Shape, size, oil content and humidity change how it flows, and a feeder that jams once a month will be returned. Dispensing mechanics, jam detection and portion accuracy have to be tuned against real foods, not a lab pellet.
Settle these and we can price it
- Camera or no camera — it decides the platform, the cloud cost and the privacy design
- Food types: dry kibble only, or freeze-dried and treats as well
- Capacity and single-pet or multi-pet operation
