Animal control apparatus with ultrasonic link

摘要

An animal control apparatus (10) with a collar based receiver (20) wirelessly linked to a stimulator (110) attached to the animal's ear. In a preferred embodiment, the receiver broadly comprises a GPS component (30); a wireless transmitter (40); a receiver processor (50); a power supply 60; and an attachment mechanism (80). The stimulator (110) broadly comprises a wireless receiver (120); a stimulation circuit (130); a stimulator processor (150); a stimulator power supply 160; and a stimulator attachment mechanism (180). The apparatus (10) is adapted to monitor an animal's location and deliver a corrective stimulus to the animal if the animal enters a restricted location.
