Final Project Proposal

For the final project, I would like to make a new version of the cat tweet box, a remote cat toy. This product would help the cat owners to play with their cat when they are not at home.

From the cat owners perspective, when they want to play with their cat, they can open up an HTML page which connects to the device and controls the cat teaser. Cat owners can also see through the camera to know what the cat is doing.

For the cat, if the cat touches the cat teaser by himself, the cat owner will receive a text message saying that “Your cat wants to play with you!”

Materials

  1. ArduCam mini camera. Suitable 3V board.
  2. Motor to move the cat teaser
  3. conductive cat teaser. metal string
  4. Esp8266 board
