Browsed your GitHub repo's and realized you're interested within the Arduino
and other electronics as well.
A very interesting and likely of popular interest, is the Arduino Mini being
utilized for cat GPS tracking collars. (There's another mini type board also
utilized for a cat GPS tracking collar.)
Well for dog lovers, this is likely going to be boring, as you can likely slap
a mobile phone on him/her. But for cats, the engineering is a bit more
demanding, with the retail sector currently lacking. Also the cost of the
electronics quickly adds-up with lost cat collars.
