MUMBAI, India, Jan. 23 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511124471 A) filed by Chandigarh University, Mohali, Punjab, on Dec. 10, 2025, for 'iot-based medication control and secure conditional dispensing system.'
Inventor(s) include Sachin Chawla.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 23, under issue no. 04/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an IoT-based medication control and secure conditional dispensing system that ensures safe, authenticated, and context-aware drug delivery. It integrates biometric authentication, real-time physiological monitoring via wearable sensors, environmental safety checks, and dynamic prescription validation using QR codes and OTPs. A secure microcontroller with a hardware secure element (HSE) governs the dispensing logic, releasing medication only when all safety conditions are met and a computed risk score falls below a clinician-defined threshold. The system features tamper detection, blockchain-anchored audit logging, and real-time alerts to caregivers and clinicians upon anomalies. It supports multi-user profiles, dynamic compartment reconfiguration, and emergency override via clinician-signed tokens. The system ensures uninterrupted operation through intelligent power and battery management, while visual and audible alerts provide immediate user feedback."
