Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for a Pet Door system with Artificial Intelligence Image recognition and access-controlled pet door. The methods, systems, and apparatus include actions of obtaining content from one or more cameras, determining from the content that an authorized animal and one or more objects is present, analyzing the one or more objects for access authorization and allowing or denying access through the Pet Door system based on the access authorization.
Claims8
An animal access control door system, comprising:
- at least one door;
- at least one image capture device;
- at least one locking device;
- at least one control unit having a processor and memory, the memory storing instructions that when executed by the processor perform a method, the method comprising:
- capturing, by the at least one image capture device, one or more multimedia items;
- analyzing, using a plurality of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Models, the one or more multimedia items to extract one or more features;
- determining, by the plurality of AI Models using the one or more features, an authorization status for an animal;
- issuing at least one command based on the authorization status;
- and
- controlling, the at least one locking device, using the at least one command, wherein the plurality of AI models further comprise:
- a first convolutional neural network configured to detect one or more identifying features of the animal, wherein the one or more identifying features is one or more of:
- one or more facial features, an animal breed, or one or more animal markings;
- a second convolutional neural network configured to detect one or more prohibited objects;
- a third convolutional neural network to detect one or more allowed objects;
- and
- a fourth convolutional neural network configured to detect one or more conditions of the animal, wherein the one or more conditions include at least a level of debris on the animal.
A computer implemented method for animal access control, comprising:
