| 20140150730 | LAUNCHER SYSTEM - A training system is disclosed that includes a controller, a dummy launcher and, optionally, a bird launcher and a pet training collar. In at least one embodiment of the invention, the controller is operable to control any one of the bird launcher, the dummy launcher or the pet training collar. The system thus includes any combination of the controller, the dummy launcher, the pet training collar and the bird launcher. The dummy launcher system includes a base is that is configured to receive a portable dummy launcher that may also be removed from the base for manual operation. The system thus allows a user to select and activate a launcher and then to select the dog training collar to transmit control commands to the dog under training. | 06-05-2014 |
| 20130239905 | HAND CONTROLLER AND SMART PHONE SYSTEM FOR ELECTRONIC TRAINER - A controller of a training system is disclosed. In at least one embodiment of the invention, a controller defines an inner curved surface and includes a strap or clip so that the controller may be worn by the user comfortably and securely on either the backside of the hand, on the fingers, in the palm of the hand, on a wrist, arm or leg. The controller includes programmable control elements that allow a user to specify what functions are activated on a trainer by selection or depression of the control elements. In one embodiment, the controller may be programmed via a remote computing unit such as a computer or a smart phone. Alternatively, the controller can be programmed manually. | 09-19-2013 |

| 20130157628 | SMART PHONE BASED ELECTRONIC FENCE SYSTEM - An electronic fence system capable of guiding animals under training to return to a predetermined restricted area is disclosed. The fence system may utilize either a plurality of loops to determine direction of travel for a receiver unit or, alternatively, a GPS system. For embodiments utilizing the GPS system, electronic fences are defined in relation to GPS location information. A lock-down mode is used to contain an animal to a very constricted area when a control command is received to initialize the lock down mode or upon a specified condition. Specified conditions include the animal approaching or entering a specified area or, alternatively, a threshold level of charge being reached for a battery that provides power for the receiver unit. A smart phone is communicatively coupled to a controller or interface device which, in turn, is communicatively coupled to a trainer/receiver. | 06-20-2013 |

| 20090000566 | ELECTRONIC FENCE CAPABLE OF GUIDING ANIMALS TO RETURN - An electronic fence system capable of guiding animals under training to return to a predetermined restricted area. The electronic fence generates electric shocks as the animals attempt to leave the predetermined restricted area and restrains the electrical shock when the animals return to the predetermined restricted area. The electronic fence includes a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter transmits RF signals having a plurality of control signals such that different shock levels are generated responsive to the location of the animals within the predetermined restricted area. The receiver sets a shock wave level, selectively controls the generation of the electric shock and a high-frequency beep, automatically restrains the generation of the electric shock when an escaped animal returns to the predetermined restricted area, and generates an audible alarm and turns lamps on and off to indicate the location of the animal when it escapes from the predefined restricted area. | 01-01-2009 |
