ペット用ふくらむ救命首輪Float-a-Pet

by Ittousai Aug 16th 2006 @ 3:00AM

毎回飼い主はともかく付けられる方には大変申し訳ないと思いつつ掲載してきたペット用ガジェットですが(首輪型GPS携帯とか)、めずらしく役に立ちそうなアイテムがでてきました。Float-a-Petは小型のCO2カートリッジとセンサーを内蔵した首輪で、水の事故に遭った場合ふくらんで浮き輪として機能します。

さらに太陽電池セルとLEDライトを内蔵して光の点滅でも位置を知らせます。写真はとりあえずコンセプト実証してみたプロトタイプで、今後もっとちゃんとしたモデルが開発される予定とのこと。

水飲みや水たまりで暴発せず、浮き輪が邪魔になって泳げないせいで却って流されたりしないとすれば実用になりそうです。
