ABSTRACT

In this paper, we propose to develop a Bluetooth Health Device Profile (HDP)-based smartphone system to utilize it for early detection of urinary tracts diseases that occur a lot in cats. Therefore, based on Bluetooth HDP, we developed a device and mobile application system (Mycatner®) that can monitor cat activity, toilet usage, urinary disease, and health status, and evaluated its availability to monitor cat health status. The specific feature of this system is that it can measure the number of cat urination frequencies to identify abnormal conditions suspected of urinary tract diseases early, and second, it can be tested with urine test paper and shared with animal hospitals, reducing time and cost. As a result, it is evaluated that the developed device capable of wireless monitoring the urinary system health status of cats is the first in our knowledge.
