Publication number: 20250072401Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the monitoring feeding behavior(s) of a pet(s), under the control of at least one processor. An example method includes obtaining load data from a load sensor of a pet bowl while the pet is interacting with contents of the pet bowl. The load sensor can have a sensitivity of +/?50 grams or less and the load data is obtained can occur at a sample rate from 10 samples to 150 samples per second. The example method can also include sequentially grouping the load data in 0.01 second to 5 second time increments, wherein individual time increments include multiple samples, and identifying a feeding behavior occurring within one or more of the time increments based on the load data resulting from the pet interacting with the pet bowl or the contents of the pet bowl.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2024Publication date: March 6, 2025Applicant: Société des Produits Nestlé S.A.Inventors: Natalie Langenfeld-McCoy, Ragen Trudelle-Schwarz McGowan, Mark Alan Donavon, Mark Harris, Julia Foti, Kristin Slater, Srikanth Vemparala, Helber Dussan, Nicholas Schoeneck, Olivia Arndt, Sarah Thomas, LeAnn Snow, Stuart Neubarth, Sanjay Kalsangra, Sarath Malipeddi, Rabinarayan Swain, Shivam Awasthi, Dwarakanath Raghavendra Ravi, Mohammed Affan Khan, Vignesh Chockalingam Arun, Narendra Kumar Murugan, Julien BELAHBIB, Mani Bharath Kamaraj
