The subscriber of the Flipper Zero Discord channel told the device developers a story about how he, using Flipper Zero, helped to return the cat lost 2 years ago. The creators of Flipper Zero told about this on Twitter .
The cat made his way to the garden to the owner of Flipper Zero. An animal was installed in the animal RFID-Tag (FDX-B 134KHZ). Using Flipper Zero, the owner of the device considered the ID of the Cat chip and found the hosts of the cat on the open base of Animal -id. Before returning the cat home, he took him to the veterinarian to check the health of the animal.
After this situation, the project developers added to Flipper Zero the ability to read RFID-Burrots for animals at non-standard frequencies to expand the possibility devices.
According to the author of the project, Pavel Zhovner, after this event, Google added Flipper Zero to the Google Knowledge base. Now this project is officially socially significant, and now, when requesting “Flipper Zero” in the search systems on the right, a separate dick with information about the device is shown.
Initially, when reaching Kickstarter, the developers had the task of raising the amount of $ 60 thousand, which was scored in 8 minutes. A day after the placement, the project had more than $ 500 thousand fees, and a day later, $ 1 million was raised. As a result, Flipper Zero raised $ 4,882,784. 37,987 people were invested on the crowdfunding platform.
