D-Door is a system that can be installed on any dog door, locking and unlocking it, based on the dog's proximity. By making your dog door smart, the system prevents other unwanted animals to go in - and it gives your dogs the ability to use their collar to unlock the door as they wish.
Care for your dog. Control when they can go out, when to stay in, or give them the freewill to unlock their dog door whenever they need.
Choose from four different settings for your D-Door to operate on. That way your dog door will remain locked when needed, making your house safer.
With a user interface bot, you will be able to control your D-Door from anywhere with Wi-Fi. Control settings, get status, lock/unlock as desired, and much more.
We at the D-Door have thought about the best features to give control to your dog
With those and more attributes, the owner will be able to control the different settings of the D-Door with any smartphone or computer. By connecting the door and the collar(s) to the internet, the customer will be able to access all features through a user friendly environment - a Telegram bot (@D_Doorbot). It is specifically designed for the customer to send pre-set commands, so the D-Door system will understand and act accordingly - even interacting back with the customer.
Everything started when Renan Mougenot was talking to his father-in-law about the dog door they installed in their house. He said that the dog door always being opened was worrying. Any unwanted animals could come through the door. Right there, D-Door started. After brainstorming, Renan Mougenot decided to find a safe and technological solution to the problem. He decided to use his Senior Capstone for Weber State University's Electrical and Computer Department to develop and improve his idea. Renan Mougenot Breviglieri Silva created the D-Door system based on the need of those around him, and decided to develop the idea into a functioning project. Aiming to solve the problem that current dog doors on the market have (its lack of security and selection), those were the first two items aborded while developing the D-Door. Components, functionality, and much more were decided throughout of the Senior Capstone. After months of programming, communication, and documentation, a prototype was designed and 3D printed, and taken to the WSU Senior Demonstration Day - to demonstrate the working prototype. Now, we have a beautiful design, easy interface, battery optimization, and much more - all because we are thinking about the customers and their dogs. So thank you for being part of the D-Door Community!
