Headline : Dog-Riding Connected Camera Lets Owners Keep Tabs On Their Pets
Caption : Have you ever wondered how your dog spends his or her day when you're not around? Well now you can take a look (if you dare).

PetNow is the world’s first wearable high definition camera for dogs giving owner's the opportunity to capture a first-person perspective of their mutt’s life and activities when they are home alone.

PetNow consists of three parts: a "soft, lightweight, breathable" harness, a Wi-Fi-connected HD video camera that quick-mounts onto that harness, and an iOS/Android app.

Utilising the app, users can view the camera's live-streamed 1080p/30fps video at any time, wherever there's internet access. They can also talk to their pet via a two-way audio system.

Additionally, if the animal wanders into an unlit part of the house at night, the camera's night vision system will still show what's going on.

Should users wish to record and then share any of the video (or take still photos), they can do so via the app. And if they want to instead go for a more traditional dog-monitoring setup, in which a stationary camera watches over one room, the camera can simply be removed from the harness and set in an included base.

PetNow is currently the subject of a Kickstarter campaign. If it reaches production, a pledge of US$79 will get you a system, with your choice of five harness sizes. The planned retail price is $169.
