FUND ME TO CONNECT AI AND DOG INTELLIGENCE

I need your help to build a prototype that saves dogs and people.

In 2021, the USPTO granted me my 2nd patent No. 10993416 for a dog harness that paired artificial intelligence with a dog's intelligence and mobility. My harness and patented AI, monitor both the dog and its owner’s emotional and physical state. The dog and the AI, working together, can detect most cancers, heart diseases, and other health conditions long before they become life-threatening. And my harness also has recreational as well as rescue applications.





WHY DID I INVENT AND PATENTED THIS?

  • It is for everything that breathes and loves us.
  • Because I want to save people, and I want to save dogs.
  • To give old rescue dogs and old people who need to be rescued a new purpose in life.

In 2016 I witnessed the deep sadness of my sister and her husband when they lost their dog to an undetected illness. Ollie was a rescue mutt, super smart, and family. It hurt.

That same year a friend lost his wife Sara to cancer that was also undetected. If the cancer was detected sooner, even by a few weeks, she would be alive. As you can imagine he was devastated, and angry. Out of his anger, he started a home healthcare business

By this time I was also angry. These were not isolated incidents. And the truth of it was that with early detection both lives could have been saved, and the cost of their care could also have been reduced significantly. And that is still true for millions of people and dogs. But how to solve the problem?

At that time I had just started a tech company in the home healthcare sector in the United States. I had to believe that there was a way artificial intelligence and robotics, two of my greatest passions, could, if not solve, at least make this a more manageable problem. But more importantly, what could I invent that could collect data and check up on a dog's health and its owner’s health 24/7?

I dismissed the idea of a Robot. Still too stupid and very expensive. Artificial intelligence was needed but it was still too bodiless and immobile. A fixed-in-place solution was something I had already invented and patented the CareCube (Patent No. 10855957) but could not work in this case. Then it dawned on me. Dogs are smart, mobile, affectionate, empathic, and usually glued to their owners. So why not connect artificial intelligence with the superior mobile natural intelligence and emotional empathy and love of a dog?




I decided the solution came in that bundle of furry love we have enjoyed for thousands of years.
If you have a dog you understand that the relationship between us and them is magical and special. It is pure selfless inspiring love.

That’s when I invented the artificial intelligence dog go harness or AI-Doggo. It took several years from concept to patent. But in 2021 I was finally granted patent No. 10993416 and now in 2023, I need your help to complete the prototype. Once the prototype is field tested, and the AI “trained” is when I can start production and deliver the first of these AI-powered smart harnesses sometime in 2024.




My goal is to do everything possible to utilize this and other new technologies in my new inventions to help prolong life and reduce suffering. Through early real-time detection of health problems, we can achieve this. And for me it's urgent! How about You?

For me, personally, everything that breathes is precious.

WHY DO I NEED YOUR HELP?

Like you I am just an ordinary human being with a dream. And as ordinary people sometimes it is difficult to see our dreams become realities. Even our dreams can save lives.

The recent collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and other technology funders plus inflation has made it difficult for me alone to find the funds I need to finish the prototype. With your donations, I can complete the prototype. And with the prototype and presales, I have faith I can secure the additional funding to start production and delivery by next year.

Help me make this dream of creating AI-Doggo a reality.

WHAT DOES MY PATENTED HARNESS DO

Using advanced sensing hardware, and patented AI technology, the AI Doggo harness monitors your dog's physical and emotional health as well as its surroundings. Simultaneously the harness will also monitor your health and surroundings using thermal imaging, video, audio, and spatial data collected in real time when your dog is next to you.





This device will help to detect illnesses early, reducing the cost of care and potentially saving lives. I believe together we can make a difference in the lives of those we care about, and ensure that we give those we love the best possible care.

WHOSE HELP DO I NEED?

Everyone, and anyone who loves dogs and who wants to be part of making a difference. If you have $10 or $10,000 your help will go a long way.

If you’re a non for profit organization that would like to volunteer in the project to train the AI and raise awareness your help would be greatly appreciated. You can contact me here.

And if you are an Influencer who loves dogs, and wants to help save lives, then you can also help me in my mission to raise awareness so we can make a difference. Please help me spread the message about the possible uses of this artificial intelligence device and the important roles our dogs play in our lives and our society,

If you are a software or hardware engineer, familiar with AI algorithms and hardware prototyping I would love to work with you on this project.

If you know how to market then I could also use your help!

WHAT I WILL DO WITH YOUR DONATIONS

All donations will go to building a prototype of my invention, the Ai-Doggo, which includes the training of the AI, the purchase of hardware components, prototyping, materials, testing of the harness, and the management and monitoring software and mobile application. Some of this will be built by me, the rest requires outside partners.

If we exceed the minimum amount, the additional funds will be used toward the development and distribution of the production model. And saving older rescue dogs by training them with our harnesses as service animals.

Your donations will help me create a product that will provide owners with peace of mind and the assurance that their pet is safe and healthy.

Thank you in advance for your generosity and willingness to help with this project.

DETECT CANCER

Caregiver dogs: A dog can become a caregiver using the Ai-Doggo harness with sensors and AI to track the dog's and its owner's biometrics. The harness can alert of any changes to the dog's or owner's health, allowing the dog to send signals to relatives to provide the necessary care in a timely manner. It can also be used to remind the owner to take medications, keep track of their diet or exercise routine, or remind them of appointments.

Trainer Dogs: Ai-Doggo can help athletes in many ways. It can track the dog's activity level and alert the owner when the dog is getting tired or overexerted, helping to reduce the risk of injury. The AI-powered sensors can also track the owner's biometrics such as heart rate, breathing rate, and body temperature, helping to identify any potential issues or warning signs of overexertion or improve performance.

Rescue Dogs: This harness can be used by rescuers and first responders to help locate victims or survivors of disasters, accidents, and other hazardous situations. The sensors in the harness will detect the dog's biometric data such as his heart rate, temperature, and body position. This data can be used to track the dog and its owner's location, allowing rescuers to quickly locate survivors in difficult situations.

Police Dogs: First, the harness sensors allow tracking of the dog’s and its owner’s location, making it easier for police forces to locate them in the event of an emergency. Additionally, the harness can detect key biometric data like heart rate and respiration rate, which can be used to detect any potential health concerns or injuries. Finally, the harness can be used to monitor and analyze the behavior of the dog, allowing police forces to identify or anticipate potential threats or suspicious activity. In summary, the Ai-Doggo harness is a powerful tool that can help police forces in a variety of ways. - situational awareness

Nanny Dog: The harness is equipped with sensors that can detect the dog's movements and location, as well as its owner's biometrics such as heart rate and body temperature. With this information, the AI can detect when the dog is in a safe and secure environment and can monitor the children or elderly person to make sure they are safe. Additionally, the AI can be programmed to alert the owner if the dog needs to go out for a walk, or if the owner needs to take action if the dog is in an unsafe environment. The AI-Doggo harness can also be used to help with basic tasks such as fetching objects or opening doors. With this smart harness, the dog can be a trusted companion and nanny for children or the elderly, providing safety and security at all times.
