MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641024460 A) filed by Chilakapati Anil Kumar, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, on March 2, for 'a simulation-driven system for predicting time-based daylighting performance in residential buildings.'

Inventor(s) include Dr Kranti Kumar Myneni.

The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention provides a simulation-driven system and method for predicting time-based daylighting performance in residential buildings. The system includes an input module for receiving a fixed set of parameters defining a building's spatial geometry, contextual conditions (orientation, obstructions), and performance criteria. A simulation engine executes automated time-series daylight simulations based on these inputs to generate illuminance data. A performance evaluation module processes this data by applying the predefined criteria to determine daylight adequacy. An output module then presents a clear performance prediction, such as an adequacy outcome for each functional space. Crucially, the system acts as a pure evaluator, predicting performance for the given configuration without modifying or recommending changes to design parameters, thereby serving as an objective tool for design assessment and regulatory compliance checking."
