Inventor(s) include Prof. Rajalakshmi Pachamuthu; and Mr. Prasanth Kumar Duba.
The application for the patent was published on Nov. 14, under issue no. 46/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a cloud-based system and method for remote piloting of drones involves using a cloud infrastructure to control drones from a remote location. The invention provides cloud AI based waypoint navigation for UAVs that leverages the power of cloud computing to enhance navigation capabilities. It utilizes cloud resources to calculate optimal flight paths based on waypoints in real-time, considering factors like obstacles, weather, and mission objectives. The visual data (images or video feeds) captured by the UAV's onboard cameras are transmitted to the cloud in real-time or periodically for processing. The methods within the cloud infrastructure identify and isolate human subjects within the imagery or video streams and upon identification, the system might trigger predefined actions, such as sending alerts or notifications to operators."
