Russian science and research institute of space instrument-making is going to start developing GLONASS/GPS receivers for monitoring pets this year.The devices, fastened on dogs' backs aren't in production yet, however, designers plan to start developing electronic shepherds as soon as this year. Western analogs cost over $600, thus Russian dog and cat owners would have to pay the equivalent in Russian rubles.
Scientists say that about 20 Russian companies produce terrestrial navigation devices for civil GLONASS/GPS users, thus creating stiff competition, especially in those units, designed only for one of mentioned navigation system.
