Hello! I am an employee of Tomofun/Furbo (disclosed on my user page). I would like to propose a few neutral, factual updates to bring the Tomofun article up to date with our current product line and company history.
Request 1: Opening Paragraph Clarification
[edit]- **Current Text:** "Tomofun is an international pet technology startup founded in 2014 by Victor Chang and mentored by Steve Chang..."
- **Proposed Text:** "Tomofun is an international pet technology company best known as the manufacturer of the Furbo pet camera line.[1] Founded in 2014 by Victor Chang and Maggie Cheung, and mentored by Steve Chang..."
- **Reasoning:** Improves clarity by establishing the relationship between the parent company (Tomofun) and its primary product brand (Furbo) in the lead sentence, while adding co-founder verification per standard Wikipedia company article guidelines.
Request 2: Update "Products and features" Section
[edit]- **Proposed Action:** Rename the existing "Products" section to "Products and features", and update the section content to reflect current hardware models and software service branding:
== Products and features ==
=== Cameras ===
Following the 2016 release of the original treat-tossing camera, Tomofun expanded the Furbo product line into multi-pet monitoring hardware:
* **Furbo 360° Dog Camera:** Released in 2022 as an upgraded model featuring a 360-degree rotating camera base, color night vision, auto-dog tracking, and treat-tossing capabilities.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.wired.com/review/furbo-360-dog-camera/ |title=Furbo 360° Dog Camera Review |publisher=WIRED |date=2022}}</ref>
* **Furbo 360° Cat Camera:** A variant tailored for cats, featuring cat-specific behavioral monitoring and built-in interactive wand attachments.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.makeuseof.com/furbo-360-cat-camera-review/ |title=Furbo 360 Cat Camera Review |publisher=MakeUseOf}}</ref>
* **Furbo Mini & Furbo Mini 360°:** Compact form-factor versions of the camera system designed for smaller spaces or as add-on cameras.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.wired.com/gallery/best-pet-cameras/ |title=The Best Pet Cameras |publisher=WIRED}}</ref>
=== Software and AI Services ===
* **Furbo Nanny:** Originally launched in 2018 as "Furbo Dog Nanny," this cloud-based subscription service was later rebranded to "Furbo Nanny" to encompass multi-pet monitoring.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://techcrunch.com/2017/11/14/furbo-unveils-treat-tossing-dog-camera-with-smart-alerts-like-when-your-dog-is-pacing/ |title=Furbo unveils treat-tossing dog camera with smart alerts, like when your dog is pacing |publisher=TechCrunch}}</ref> The software uses machine learning models to detect events such as barking, meowing, pet activity, glass breaking, and carbon monoxide or smoke detector alarms.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.wired.com/gallery/best-pet-cameras/ |title=The Best Pet Cameras |publisher=WIRED}}</ref>
