MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641049509 A) filed by B Jyothi, Department of EEE, Koneru Lakshmaiah Education 30/12, Foundation, Vaddeswaram, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh, on April 17, for 'ai-driven lane keeping system for autonomous vehicles.'

Inventor(s) include B. Jyothi; T. Ganesh; P. Bhavana; B N V D Om Jnaanesh; B. Prem Sai; and G. Bhuvan.

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 an AI-driven lane-keeping system for autonomous vehicles. The system utilizes an ESP32based embedded platform integrated with a camera module and ultrasonic sensors for realtime environment sensing. Image processing techniques including grayscale conversion, edge detection, and Hough transform are used to detect lane boundaries. A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is employed to determine steering direction based on lane features. The system also incorporates obstacle detection using ultrasonic sensors and performs safe overtaking using a path planning algorithm. The proposed system enables real-time lane tracking, improves vehicle stability, and enhances road safety. The invention is cost-effective and suitable for small-scale autonomous vehicle applications."
