As CEO and Founder of Paragon Innovations, I have seen technology evolved, and products changed in a way that has impacted and improved everyone’s lives.  Three decades of continuous engineering services have given us the chance to design IoT devices with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and other technologies – connecting products and clients all over the world.

These improvements include household products that provide added value to homeowners.  We have witnessed industry-changing technology - delivering safety and security using cameras, energy efficiency by remotely controlling thermostats, and monitoring health with connected medical devices, among other platforms.  Home automation and connected products provide a new level of convenience and deliver peace of mind to users. Paragon designed one of the first smart home thermostats in 2007 and continues to move forward with innovations.

During the past few years, our team has been working with a client delivering the next generation Pet Trackers for a leading Pet Tracking Device that connects pets to our homes.  We all know that pets are an integral part of the family – our technology has included them in our connected homes by providing smart collars with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and cellular connectivity. 

What is a GPS Pet Tracker?

The GPS smart collar for dogs keeps track of your best friend’s activity, location, health, and so much more.  The embedded technology that lives inside “LINK” provides digital safe zones via Bluetooth that are automatically created by the owner’s phone and where the user places their base station.  It also allows users to get timely locations to receive notifications when your dog leaves their safe zone and the ability to track your dog with LINK anywhere in the U.S. when he/she has a stable AT&T and/or Verizon cellular connection.

These days, technology is really going to the dogs and helping owners take care of their loved animals!  Pets are a part of Americans’ lives now more than ever, and the tech world is taking notice. Creative entrepreneurs have rolled up hundreds of innovative apps and tech products in recent years, opening up a whole new world of smart and fun ways to care for the four-legged friends in your life.  The Pet Tracking Device from LINK is an ideal example and combined with a remote pet camera, a feeder app, and other technology, makes all the sense in the world.

We are excited at what the future holds and are confident we will continue to be part of this growth.  Connected homes meet pet care!   We will continue to see these changes, and owners will enjoy the benefits of connected devices for added convenience thorough technology and communications.
