Abstract

Many animals, including pets and assistance dogs for the physically disabled, are all around us. However, there are also dangers to contact many zoonotic diseases. One of the routes of infection is though excrement, so we have developed a device to automatically fold pet sheets. In addition, we have developed a system that can remotely control this device so that it can be used in a car. The system consists of seven servo motors, a DC motor, and a pair of communication devices. When a button on the communication device is pressed while driving, the system automatically folds the pet sheets along the creases and throws them into the trash. This allows pet owners to dispose of their waste without touching the pet sheet, thus preventing zoonotic diseases. Experiments conducted on the disposal of pet sheets with urine and feces on them showed a 100% success rate.
