This summer research project focused on developing a smart healthcare monitoring system for pets through an iOS mobile application. The goal was to provide pet owners with real-time insights into their pets’ heart health using data visualization and health monitoring logic.
The project involved exploring veterinary literature to determine healthy heart rate ranges for cats and dogs, taking into account factors such as species, size, and age. Based on this research, an abnormality detection algorithm was developed to alert users to potential health concerns.
The app, built using SwiftUI, displays heart rate data numerically and alerts users to any irregularities, helping pet owners monitor their pets’ well-being with ease. This research combined interests in healthcare technology and mobile development, demonstrating how accessible software tools can enhance everyday animal care.
