Overview
The Customer is a government-sponsored U.S. enterprise with a huge experience in telecommunications. After extending their plans and services to 18 U.S. states, they shifted their device focus from smartphones to wireless wearables.
The Customer had a very strict schedule: they approached Infigrid Solutions in May 2018 and wanted to have a pet tracker app, two native mobile apps and a backend all delivered by September 2018. With Christmas holidays in mind, the Customer wanted to release their product as early in the fall as possible so that their customers could have enough time to learn about the product and order it as a present for their pets.
We started by developing software for pet tracking devices that were provided by a third party employed by the Customer. Given the existing limitations of the hardware itself, our team of mobile app developers strived to write software that would make the pet tracker as efficient as possible.
The final product enables two-way voice communication and nationwide GPS tracking, snapshotting the surroundings with a 2-megapixel camera, as well as switching on a flashlight. The device also has a virtual ID tag that shows the pet’s name and the contacts of its owner on a small display.
