Petronix’s open hardware approach and AI-at-the-edge strategy gets a boost with Arduino integration.
May 21, 2025
Petronix Trail Edition harnesses edge computing to keep pets and people safe in real time—without depending on cloud connectivity. Thanks to our collaboration with Arduino, developers and hobbyists can now extend its functionality even further.
"At Arduino, we're thrilled to collaborate with Petronix Wear in developing their innovative pet safety solutions," said Guneet Bedi, SVP & GM at Arduino. "This partnership perfectly embodies our open source philosophy and our fundamental mission to democratize technology. By simplifying complex systems into user-friendly devices, we're continuing Arduino's legacy of putting powerful technology into the hands of everyday people. We look forward to seeing how our open platforms help Petronix create safer outdoor experiences for pets and their owners worldwide."
Whether it’s detecting wildlife activity or scanning trail conditions, our wearable enables real-time, on-device inference using sensors like microphones, gyroscopes, and GPS. Add the potential to plug in third-party sensors through Arduino modules, and you’ve got a powerful foundation for an open innovation ecosystem.
We’re already seeing interest from the maker community, and we believe this will open doors for hobbyists and researchers alike to build new safety applications—from localized environmental alerts to predictive behavior detection.
