MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641049171 A) filed by Sona College Of Technology, Salem, Tamil Nadu, on April 17, for 'automated water spray bird repellent system using iot and sensors.'

Inventor(s) include Sangeethapriya R; Aathmiga S; Arthi E; Rupika S; and Vijayadharshini V.

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 automated bird repellent system for agricultural crop protection. The system comprises a detection unit configured to sense movement within a predefined crop area and generate detection signals corresponding to bird activity. A control unit receives and processes the detection signals through signal conditioning and timing or counting stages to derive movement characteristics. An actuation-enable output generated by the control unit governs energization of an actuation unit comprising a water pump, a solenoid valve, and at least one spray nozzle, thereby delivering a targeted water spray toward the detected region. The actuation unit is structurally interlocked with the actuation-enable output to prevent continuous or false operation. A communication module enables transmission of operational data to a remote user interface for monitoring. The invention provides a non-lethal, resource-efficient, and selectively activated bird deterrent solution suitable for agricultural fields."
