• The Swiss start-up is showing off an AI-powered cat door that automatically locks if your kitty tries to bring in prey it caught from the outside.On the side of the door facing the outside, you'll find a motion sensor and night-vision camera..
• Eventually, Flappie says that pets are likely to be trained that they can't enter when carrying something, and when they drop the prey the door will promptly unlock so they can get inside..
• (One of Flappie's co-founders admitted that a smart cat might figure out to drop the mouse, get the door open, pick it back up and then run in..
• But hopefully that'll happen a lot less frequently.There are some manual switches on the inside of the door so you can lock and unlock it any time you want as well as turn off the prey-detection system..
• The company says that its AI-powered detection system is accurate more than 90 percent of the time, which means your cat could still get a mouse inside..
• So if your pet has been microchipped, you can make it so the cat door only opens for your specific pet..
