Abstract:
A smart bowl system includes one more food and water smart bowls that each has a processor, memory, and a bowl weight sensor. The smart bowls communicate with a cloud server and one or more caretaker computing devices. The caretakers can input physical information for the pet including weight. The smart bowl system can determine the healthy weight range for the pet and determine a recommended feeding schedule. The smart bowl system can remind the caretakers to feed the pet, monitor the quantity of food and water that are placed in the smart bowls and the consumption of the food and water by the pet and transmit reports to the caretaker's computing device(s). The smart bowl system can maintain the recommended feeding schedule to keep the pet within the healthy weight range or adjust the feeding schedule to bring the pet's weight within the healthy weight range.
