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 invention provides a system and method for transforming underutilized public spaces using tactical urbanism supported by modular design components, real time data collection, community engagement tools, and structured evaluation mechanisms. The system integrates deployable tactical elements with a sensor-based monitoring network that tracks pedestrian flow, environmental conditions, and spatial interactions while a digital engagement platform gathers resident feedback and behavioral insights. A decision support engine analyzes all collected data to generate evidence-based recommendations that refine, expand, or transition tactical interventions into permanent infrastructure. A deployment management module coordinates installation, documentation, and iterative improvements, enabling cities to rapidly activate public spaces, enhance social and environmental performance, and support long term urban development through adaptive and community driven design."
