Wireless animal training, monitoring and remote control system
First Claim
1. A system for training an animal comprising:
- at least two animal worn devices each comprising;
a housing;
a processor;
a battery;
one or more outputs to apply a stimulus to an animal; and
a transceiver for pairing the animal worn devices with a wireless mobile device via a two-way low enemy communications protocol; and
a preprogrammed application to run on the mobile device;
wherein identifying information sent from the at least two transceivers is detected at the mobile device and associated information is displayed at the mobile device; and
wherein a user operating the mobile device can select which detected animal worn device is paired with the mobile device for applying the stimulus to the animal.

Abstract
An animal training and/or monitoring system and an animal-worn device that is capable of receiving and sending various inputs and outputs, respectively, from/to a wireless mobile device. The wireless mobile device has a software application that allows a human user to wirelessly communicate with the animal-worn transceiver via direct, networked or cellular wireless protocols. The animal-worn device interacts with the applications on the wireless mobile device to allow for a variety of functions, such as the transfer of commands or stimuli to the animal, the transfer of data regarding the animal or its environment to the wireless mobile device, and/or the transfer of instructions from the animal-worn device to an external device. The wireless mobile device may also transmit new firmware to the animal-worn device to modify its inputs and outputs.
