MUMBAI, India, July 25 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202421005004 A) filed by Varroc Engineering Limited, Aurangabad, Maharashtra, on Jan. 24, 2024, for 'system and method for determining a current location of an object.'
Inventor(s) include Shreeyansh Singh Yadav; Mohit Mahendra Bhati; and Smruti Ranjan Nayak.
The application for the patent was published on July 25, under issue no. 30/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present subject matter relates to a system (100) and a method (400) for navigation operation, using a stochastic approach to optimize a current location of an object. The method (400) takes an initial location from a plurality of sensors as a reference to estimate and calculate the current location. Further, a dead reckoning system is used to estimate a heading direction by calculating displacement and processing sensor data. This data serves as input for a Levy flight technique, which iteratively explores and improves a heading angle (a) to refine a current position. The method (400) computes the current and updated positions by calculating proximity values for estimated positions in a random space, updating position vectors for individual and global best positions, and thereby updating their fitness values. This ensures real-time optimization of the object's location, even in the absence of GNSS signals, providing accurate turn-by-turn navigation instructions."
