MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621008170 A) filed by Sage University, Indore, Madhya Pradesh, on Jan. 28, for 'accident detection system and method for automatic emergency alert generation.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Prashant Jain; Lokesh Vishwakarma; Prof. Vijay Kumar Malviya; and Prof. Savita Rathoad.
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: "A vehicle-mounted accident detection system (102) comprises an accelerometer sensor (104), a tilt sensor (106), a sound sensor (108), a buzzer (110), a manual override button (112), and a hardware processor (114). The hardware processor (114) determines accident occurrence when the accelerometer sensor (104) and sound sensor (108) exceed thresholds simultaneously, or when the tilt sensor (106) and sound sensor (108) exceed thresholds simultaneously. The hardware processor (114) activates the buzzer (110) for thirty seconds enabling user cancellation via the manual override button (112). The hardware processor (114) transmits an emergency alert message with GPS location coordinates via a wireless communication interface (116) when no cancellation input is received. The system (102) reduces false alarm rates by eighty percent through multi-sensor cross-verification while maintaining automatic emergency notification for genuine accidents."
