PET DOOR WITH RFID DETECTION

摘要

We describe various improvements to selective pet doors for allowing selective control of entry/exit to/from a building. In embodiments the pet door comprise: a tunnel portion defining a tunnel for entry/exit of a pet; one or more moveable flaps, for example one towards either end of said tunnel; and one or more controllable locks each for a respective said flap. In some preferred embodiments a safety mode is provided so that if, say, a kitten might follow an older cat through the pet door as the older cat leaves the safety mode enables the kitten to return safely. These and other embodiments also provide improved antenna configurations for reading tags of microchipped pets, and multiple door configurations in which a first controllable lock is controls opening of a first flap, and a second controllable lock controls opening of a second flap.
