Patent attributes
In embodiments, the environmentally aware pet leash may restrain the movements of a pet and monitor environmental conditions during a walk. An infrared thermometer within the pet leash may be pointed towards a walking surface in front of the pet. The pet leash may display the pavement temperature of the walking surface, on an operator display and may alert the use to pavement temperatures that lie outside of predetermined range of temperatures. A laser point that is aligned to display a visible spot at the center of the area may show the user where the pavement temperature is being determined. The pet leash may also display and alert based upon data from a plurality of environmental sensors and a distance/route tracker and may report environmental conditions, alerts, distances, or routes to a remote computer using a transceiver.
