For cat lovers, and perhaps for those who are sometimes annoyed with stray cats, Cat Radar detects cats based on pre-trained machine learning model. Cat Radar is powered by Apple's CoreML. It can be used for fun or it can be applied as a cat burglar alarm or cat intruder notifier. FEATURES: 1. It's free and it works offline. 2. Alarm sound can be adjusted based on iPhone/iPad volume control buttons. 3. Users can perform screen recording (using iOS default feature) while the app is running. 4. The app shows a red box enclosing the cat during detection; this gives the user an idea in case the app confuses an object to be a cat. 5. The app works without collecting user data and images of your pet. 6. The user can record video in silent or stealth mode by decreasing the volume down to zero.
