MUMBAI, India, July 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511059532 A) filed by Chandigarh University, Mohali, Punjab, on June 21, for 'tilt-sensor based safety system to prevent fuel leaks and fire hazards in two-wheelers.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Ravinder Tonk; Baljinder Kaur; Achyut Kumar Mishra; Dharamveer Singh; Parmjit Singh; Dilbar Singh; and Arpit Shukla.
The application for the patent was published on July 11, under issue no. 28/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention introduces a low-cost, efficient anti-theft security system tailored for two-wheeler scooters. It employs a tilt sensor, Arduino microcontroller, and relay module to detect unauthorized movements. The tilt sensor continuously monitors the scooty's orientation, and any abnormal tilt triggers the Arduino to activate the relay. This relay is connected to the ignition system (CDI unit) or battery and, when triggered, cuts off the power supply, preventing the engine from starting. The system effectively disables the vehicle during theft attempts or unauthorized handling. Designed for simplicity and affordability, it requires minimal modification to existing scooter systems and uses easily available electronic components and open-source programming. This solution enhances scooter security by providing a proactive response to tampering or movement, offering an accessible and practical safeguard for everyday users."
