Two methods: 1. put a bell on the dog so you can hear where it is. 2. again an audio method, use one of those key finders where you press a hand control and the device elicits a noise - this can be attached to the dog's collar.

She wants to be able to train dogs off leash and she has to be able to know where the dog is. My idea is a belt with eight tactile feedback units spaced equally around a belt and A radio transmitter for the dog to wear. Some sort of direction finding antanna. Maybe each of the eight units could be receivers and a micro processor could determine which one is receiving the stronger signal. Any ideas at all? How could I go about developing something like this. What are good sources for parts, etc. David [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] To listen to the show archives go to link http://acbradio.org/handyman.html or ftp://ftp.acbradio.org/acbradio-archives/handyman/ The Pod Cast address for the Blind Handy Man Show is. http://www.acbradio.org/news/xml/podcast.php?pgm=saturday Visit The Blind Handy Man Files Page To Review Contributions From Various List Members At The Following address: http://www.jaws-users.com/handyman/ Visit the archives page at the following address http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ If you would like to join the Blind Computing list, then visit the following address for more information: http://jaws-users.com/mailman/listinfo/blind-computing_jaws-users.com For a complete list of email commands pertaining to the Blind Handy Man list just send a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo!
