In recent years, pet - related consumption has been continuously growing, and the industry is gradually extending from basic pet - keeping to refined health management. In the field of smart pet hardware, existing products mostly focus on functions such as positioning, fencing, and motion recording. Some products have begun to introduce the monitoring of basic physiological indicators such as heart rate and body temperature, but overall, they still mainly rely on single - point data. The data dimensions and application scenarios are relatively limited, and a complete health management closed - loop has not yet been formed.
In this context, Wabao Technology positions its product as a long - term health data collection terminal and attempts to expand application scenarios by combining hardware, data, pet food, and subsequent services.
The smart collar launched this time adopts a multi - modal sensing solution of sound, light, and force, combined with bone conduction, spectroscopy, and flexible sensing technologies to collect physiological and behavioral data of pets.
From the perspective of the system architecture, the product consists of end - side devices, a cloud computing power platform, a multi - modal model, and an expert system: the collar is responsible for data collection, the cloud performs storage and calculation, the model conducts analysis and processing, and finally outputs health - related suggestions.
In terms of monitoring indicators, the product covers multiple data such as heart rate, body temperature, respiratory rate, and movement posture. Different from the single - point and intermittent data - based solutions in the industry, its focus is on continuous data collection and trend analysis. The model converts the original data into structured indicators such as activity changes and nighttime behavior and conducts anomaly identification in combination with the database.

Meanwhile, the collar also adds a pet language translation function, attempting to break through the barrier of human - pet interaction and endow the collar with both health and emotional value.
In addition to the hardware, Wabao Technology also proposes the idea of combining data with pet food. According to the plan, in the future, phased and functional pet food products will be developed based on the monitoring data, and data cooperation with pet hospitals and insurance institutions will be explored to form an application closed - loop of "monitoring - analysis - intervention".
