Entry Description

Connected Pet Crate was designed to improve the safety and security of a pet while traveling. The product incorporated the latest sensor technology and embedded connectivity which provides ability to monitor and interact with their pets while in mid-air.

The crate can also help the airline to provide the best care for pets and reduce the risk of injury. Sensors communicate improper handling of the crate, environmental hazards, missing pet to ground crews so they can prompt immediate action to make sure the pets are safe to prevent serious injuries and deaths.
