Anti-barking collars
— a specific type of electronic collars designed to wean a pet from “voicing” for no reason. Anti-barking may not be the only function of such a collar; however, anyway, there are two elements in the design: a voice recognition sensor and a correction system.
The voice recognition sensor is tuned to the timbre of the barking and howling of the pet. At the same time, in many collars, not only microphones are provided for this, but also sensors that respond to vibrations of the vocal cords; this increases the accuracy of the trigger and minimizes the chance of reacting to extraneous sounds or the voices of other dogs. When triggered, the correction system is activated, which provides an unpleasant effect for the animal. The principle of such an impact can be different, one of the most popular options is an ultrasonic signal that is inaudible to a person, but unpleasant for a dog. In some advanced models, a more complex correction is used, with increasing intensity: if the barking does not stop, then first an ultrasonic warning signal is given, then a vibration signal, and after a while — a safe, but tangible electric shock.
Anyway, such a collar allows you to develop a conditioned reflex, weaning your pet to bark and howl for no reason. At the same time, modern technologies make it possible to provide in such accessories various additional functions that increase convenience and safety: auto-adjustment to the temperament of the animal, remote control, as well as automatic shutdown if the pet barks very loudly and often (often this means that there is quite a serious problem for barking). cause).
