Final Project Sketch

Design Motivation

I'm a "cat person" or "poop-picker", so I have four cats in my house.

My girlfriend is also a "cat person". She cares about the stray cat around the world, so she downloads an application call 街貓app, which is used for feed the stray cats remotely. In this app, lots of cat shelters are set somewhere and it can feed the cats by applications. Users can pay for buying cat foods and feed the stray cats remotely.

Design sketch

In application 街貓app, users can monitoring the movement of stray cats through the IoT camera of the cat shelters. But the design of these cat shelters are open, it can not help the stray cats keep warm. So I want to design a cat shelter which also can monitoring the cat is get inside the shelter or not, monitoring the remain water and cat food, and also monitoring the temperature inside the shelter.

A positioning module such as GPS or BDS is needed for positioning the cat shelter. When remain water or cat food is not enough, or temperature inside the shelter is too low. The cat people can go to the place of cat shelter for further rescue.
