Smart doghouses provide a safe and comfortable place for dogs to stay while owners are shopping inside stores and eating at restaurants.

The thermally controlled dog house fits one animal, and is a convenient way to shelter and protect your dog while on the run – making more time for you to enjoy the day with man’s best friend.

A better option to simply tying the dog leash up, the smart doghouse is connected to the internet and feature interior webcams for remote monitoring via your cell phone. The wireless capability also allows owners locate smart doghouses, reserve a doghouse, to lock and unlock the doghouse.

The intelligent doghouse required bright red, green and yellow indicator lights to communicate whether the doghouse is available or in use; reserved for another customer; is being cleaned (in transition); or needs maintenance (out of order). The panel mount indicators need to be rugged and able to withstand extreme environmental conditions. In addition, the LEDs were required to provide well-defined illumination, especially in daylight.

The rugged, CNX Series LED panel mount indicators from VCC are IP67-rated for outdoor applications. The moisture sealed CNX714 & CNX722 features FlexVolt all-in-one technology, which enables the indicator to be used with any voltage ranging from 5V to 28V DC.

The LED panel mount indicators offer a wide viewable angle that delivers bright visibility even in direct sunlight.
