FurTalk Apple Watch

FurTalk is a future-focused Apple Watch concept designed to help children build meaningful, imaginative connections with their pets. By recording a bark, meow, or other sound, the watch uses AI to “translate” what a pet might be feeling or trying to express, allowing kids to experience playful, conversation-like interactions. Rooted in research on emotional development, the app supports empathy, creativity, and comfort by giving children a safe, non-judgmental way to explore feelings and understand their animals better. FurTalk fills a gap in current pet-related apps by offering not just entertainment, but a deeper emotional and educational experience, encouraging kids to develop responsibility, perspective-taking, and a stronger bond with their pets. Below shows the scope of the project and progress work!
