MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641051605 A) filed by Dr. Kakirala Durga Bhavani; and Dr. Shanthi M, Bangalore, Karnataka, on April 22, for 'smart city transportation ai system for traffic accident detection & anticipation.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Kakirala Durga Bhavani; and Dr. Shanthi M.
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 proposed invention presents an Artificial Intelligence-driven intelligent transportation system designed for real-time detection and anticipation of road traffic accidents in smart city environments. It integrates computer vision, machine learning, and IoT-based sensor networks to continuously monitor vehicular behavior and environmental conditions. The system processes live data through edge and cloud computing frameworks to identify abnormal patterns and predict potential collisions before they occur. Upon detection or anticipation of an accident, it automatically generates alerts with precise location and severity details for emergency response and traffic authorities, enabling rapid intervention. The system incorporates adaptive learning for continuous improvement, secure communication for reliable data transmission, and scalable architecture for deployment across diverse environments. By transforming traditional reactive traffic monitoring into a proactive and predictive safety mechanism, the invention enhances road safety, reduces fatalities, minimizes congestion, and contributes to the development of efficient, intelligent, and sustainable transportation systems."
