Petlibro has released a smart feeder with an AI camera for monitoring nutrition

Company Petlibro introduced an updated line of smart feeders Granary 2, equipped with built-in scales and a computer vision system. The devices are designed for automated control of the diet in homes where several pets live.

Flagship models of the series received a built-in AI-camera that recognizes a specific animal and records the amount of food eaten in real-time. The system automatically keeps statistics of consumption, allowing owners to track changes in the appetite of each pet through a mobile application.

To use the advanced health monitoring functions, including analytical reports and notifications of anomalies in behavior, users will need to purchase an additional monthly subscription. Basic functions of portion control and feeding scheduling are available without restrictions.

The hardware of the device includes weight sensors with an accuracy of up to 1 gram, which provides detailed accounting of the dispensed food. All video stream processing for animal identification occurs locally, which reduces delays in data transmission to the server.

The integration of computer vision into household devices for animals allows owners to identify early signs of diseases related to changes in eating behavior. The novelty from Petlibro expands the capabilities of the IoT solution segment for the home, transferring pet monitoring to the level of automated analytics.
