An accessory unit is provided for a remotely controlled animal training system. The accessory unit may include a battery, a receiver, a light source, functional unit, a connection and a control. In embodiments, the control may be operable to determine a function and an intensity for the light source based on the received signal and power the light source based on the determined function and intensity. The determined function may cause the light source to flash or illuminate at the highest intensity. The functional unit may be a pressure sensor unit, a GPS unit or a compass.

System and method for tracking, monitoring, and locating animals

A light accessory is provided for a remotely controlled animal training system, allowing visual tracking of an animal in low ambient light conditions. The light accessory may be a stand-alone accessory or be in conjunction with a wireless receiver. The light accessory may be controlled by an accessory channel that exists in the remotely controlled animal training system, or may be controlled by the presence of a generic proximate radio frequency transmission.

Remote control animal training transmitter

A collar-mounted animal training device includes a piezoelectric transducer device ( ) attached to a mylar cone acoustic element mounted in a transducer housing ( ) configured as a resonant sound port. The piezoelectric transducer is driven by circuitry including a microcontroller ( ), a voltage booster circuit ( ), and driver circuitry coupled to the booster circuit and producing a boosted drive signal to the piezoelectric device ( ). The microcontroller stores data representing a plurality of sequential segments each having a start and stop time and a start and stop frequency. The microcontroller sequentially produces a plurality of output signals having a start and stop times and frequencies.
