Automated Pet Door with LED Collar

Purpose of the Project

Our Automated Pet Door with LED Collar allows pets a way back into their home without the direct assistance from their owner, nor will the owner have to be home. Even when the owner is stuck at work for half the day, they can rest assured that their pet will not be locked out and stuck outside in the rain.
