The Hardware
Biosensor Capsule
The biosensor capsule gets attached to your dog's collar and positioned under its
chin. It uses biometric technology to monitor and record your dog's activity and
behaviour.
When the biosensor comes within range of a Receiver it will transfer its information
to the Receiver. The biosensor can hold up to 7 days of information in its memory. If
the biosensor does become full, it will stop recording until it is able to upload the
data to a receiver.
The biosensor capsule is sold in a waterproof condition.
Additional and replacement biosensors are sold separately.
Receiver
The Receiver is an Ethernet device that plugs into your router or modem and
communicates with the Heyrex biosensor wirelessly. When a biosensor comes within
range of a Receiver it will transfer all of its stored information to that Receiver which
then uploads it to the Heyrex servers, via your internet connection.
Any biosensor can upload to any Receiver. All data is sent with each dog's unique
device code so that it can be identified. However, no personally identifiable
information is included. Please note that this feature may mean that on rare
occasions your dog's data will be uploaded via another user's Receiver while on
other occasions data belonging to other dogs may be uploaded via your Receiver.
