Pet Wearable
Market Size Worth Over $2Bn by 2023 - Global Market Insights
Point Roberts, WA - November 22, 2016 – Investorideas.com,
a global news source covering technology issues a sector snapshot for the GPS pet
tracking market and some of the publicly traded companies participating in the growing
market opportunity. Flex (NASDAQ:
FLEX), Garmin (NasdaqGS:GRMN), Gopher Protocol (OTCQB: GOPH), Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI) and Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NasdaqGS:SWKS) all have products developed or in development for
the GPS tracking sector of the pet wearable market.
According to Global Market Insights, the pet wearable
market size will be worth over $2bn by 2023. “The rising need for remote
monitoring and tracking pets is anticipated to drive the industry over the next
few years. The advent of various smart devices such as tablets and smartphones
that help in instant tracking of pets is likely to propel the industry over the
next few years. Increasing significance of GPS and RFID based devices is
predicted to positively impact the pet wearable market size.”
The report also notes, “The U.S. pet wearable
market size is predicted to continue its dominance due to surging adoption of
these devices. Increasing spending on pet food, veterinary care and on other
products and services is expected to drive the regional industry demand.”
Another research firm, Grand View Research, sees
similar growth opportunity. They project the market reaching USD $2.36 billion
by 2022. “Growing pet ownership coupled with increasing per capita expenditure
on pets is expected to drive product demand over the forecast period. Over the
next seven years, linkage of pet wearable with IoT & other mobile devices
along with increasing dominance of certain vendors would challenge industry
penetration of new entrants.”
In October, Gopher Protocol (OTCQB: GOPH) announced they had started building its initial 50 Guardian Sphere
Devices, designed for tracking pets as well as other applications. The Sphere
is an innovative tracking device that can easily be attached to a pet's collar
and then transmit real-time location information to the smartphone(s) or
website account of the registered owner of the device. The Sphere has a
replaceable battery and operates on the exclusive Guardian private network,
which provides owners with the unique ability to obtain real-time tracking
information without the need for GPS, Wi-Fi or cellular service. The Sphere
includes state of the art radio technology, a GPS system and micro controller
systems, with a potential "back-up" Bluetooth unit. The Sphere sends
signals in specific intervals to report on its location. The Sphere's system
analyzes the information using its proprietary, advanced mathematical modeling
software that precisely calculates the Sphere's location. The Sphere's mobile
application then presents the exact location of the Sphere on the map. An
additional unique system feature is the Sphere's Emergency Alert system. Users
of the Sphere have the ability to transmit emergency alerts directly from their
mobile apps, which transmit their Sphere locations. All registered users
located in such a Sphere's proximity will be notified about the Emergency and
may notify the user about the Sphere's recovery (which we fondly refer to as a
"private emergency alert").
"The actual creation of our initial 50 Spheres
along with their suggested final design is extremely exciting. These 50 Spheres
will be tested as a complete system in San Diego, Los Angeles and San
Francisco. We believe tests will be initiated by mid-November. Our goal in
developing the Sphere is to provide pet owners with peace of mind through the
use of an invaluable recovery tool which could enable them to track their pets
in real-time should they ever become separated," stated Company CTO, Dr.
Danny Rittman.
In September, hereO, creator of the first complete
end-to-end family location service, announced it had entered into a product
development and manufacturing partnership with Flex (NASDAQ:

According to the press release, “Complementing
hereO's rapidly growing, industry-leading partnership line-up, Flex and hereO
will collaborate on the design, engineering and production of the company's
next generation of family friendly wearable technology products – Pet Tracker,
Tracker of Things, hereO Senior, and current in-market hereO GPS Watch for
kids.”
In June of this year, Garmin International Inc., a
unit of Garmin Ltd. (NasdaqGS: GRMN), announced new capabilities to its GPS dog
tracking system, including the new Astro® 430, a GPS and GLONASS dog tracking
handheld that can track up to 20 dogs at a range of up to nine miles, and is
capable of updating their location every 2.5 seconds. The unit can be used in
conjunction with the new DriveTrack™ 70 LMT, a seven-inch touchscreen dashboard
navigator that tracks dogs from inside a vehicle and navigates to them. In
addition, hunters can now see their dogs’ whereabouts on any fēnix® 3 watch.
The capabilities extend to existing Alpha tracking and training systems as
well.
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NasdaqGS:SWKS) announced in May
that its front-end modules are being leveraged by Iotera, a leader in wireless
technologies for wide area Internet of Things applications, across their family

these devices are now being utilized to protect vehicles, bicycles and other
personal items. Tracking is becoming an increasingly important opportunity as
the Internet of Things explosion proliferates and encompasses a wide range of
new and previously unimagined applications ranging from smart meters and
connected vehicles, to security systems and industrial uses. Skyworks’
connectivity solutions extend range and maximize battery life in these types of
devices.
Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI) announced its new VerveRetrieve waterproof GPS pet tracker at CES 2016
and other technology conferences at the beginning of the year but it’s unclear
presently if it’s in the market. The GPS pet tracker lets pet owners find their
lost dog and track activity anywhere with cellular data and it includes
lifetime1 tracking warranty. VerveRetrieve is IP67 waterproof and offers
lifetime GPS tracking, virtual fence and wander alert via the Hubble
application for iOS and Android. The Motorola SCOUT5000 wearable camera with
GPS lets you know where your dog is at all times. The wide angle camera allows
you to stream live video of what your dog is seeing on your compatible device;
while GPS real-time tracking lets you know the exact whereabouts of your pet so
you can bring them home if they wander off.
