AI-Powered 'Flappie' Cat Flap Uses Cameras and AI To Keep Kitty's Prey Outside
-
Flappie is an AI-powered cat flap that prevents cats from bringing prey into the home by automatically locking when it detects an animal in the cat's mouth.
-
It uses advanced technology like microchip cat identification, infrared cameras, and AI facial recognition to work.
-
Flappie provides pet owners app notifications when their cat tries to bring prey inside.
-
The cat flap was created by two brothers trying to solve their mom's issue with cats bringing dead animals into the home.

Flappie launched at CES 2024 and will be commercially available in Spring 2023 for $310.
