MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641050591 A) filed by Sona College Of Technology, Salem, Tamil Nadu, on April 21, for 'a portable autonomous emergency alert device with motion-based triggering and location communication system.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Jamuna Rani M; Sree Yalini E; and Sindhu S.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a portable emergency alert device for personal safety, comprising a microcontroller-based embedded system configured to generate real-time alerts. The device includes a panic switch for manual activation and a motion sensing unit for automatic detection of abnormal movement such as sudden impact or fall. Upon detection of an emergency condition, the microcontroller acquires location data from a positioning module and transmits alert messages through a cellular communication module to predefined recipients. The device operates independently of external computing devices and internet connectivity, ensuring reliable functionality in remote or low-network areas. A regulated power unit enables efficient energy utilization, while a display interface provides system status feedback. The invention provides an autonomous, low-power, and reliable safety solution with reduced response time and enhanced emergency communication capability."
