A company are fighting dog dementia - through video games. Joipaw say they have created an Apple Health-style tracker that can measure canine health. It includes an interactive whack-a-mole-style game that provides data on the pet's state of mind. Joipaw is the brainchild of Dersim Avdar and Marco Jenny, who say the aim is to alert owners if any abnormal behaviour is detected. Dogs wear the tracker on their collar and it sends data on their activities to the app, e.g. steps, time spent resting, playing, walking. They also play games on the console and receive treats when they’re successful.
