MUMBAI, India, July 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641084440 A) filed by Vallurupalli Nageswara Rao Vignana Jyothi Institute Of Engineering And on July 09, 2026, for Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Elderly Care Band With Fall Detection, Health Monitoring, And Location Tracking.
Inventors include Dr. V. Surya Narayana Reddy; Mr. M. Aravind; Ms. K. Indu; Mr. M. Shashank; and Mr. Md. Zaki.
The application for the patent was published on July 17, 2026, under issue no. 29/2026.
Abstract: The present invention discloses a Smart IoT-Enabled Wearable Health Monitoring Band designed specifically for elderly individuals, integrating multiple physiological, environmental, and motion sensors with an intelligent backend risk evaluation engine to provide continuous, proactive, and personalized health surveillance. The system employs an ESP32 microcontroller as the core processing unit to acquire real-time data from sensors such as heart rate, body temperature (DHT22), motion and fall detection (MPU6050), and hydration levels, while incorporating GPS for location tracking. An Adaptive Risk Evaluation Engine computes a dynamic composite risk score by fusing multi-factor inputs with temporal and environmental context, enabling context-aware decision making and multi- stage alert escalation. Key features include automatic fall detection with immediate notifications, medication and hydration reminders in multiple languages with voice feedback, emergency calling/SMS to predefined contacts, and seamless cloud integration for remote caregiver monitoring. Deployed as a compact, user-friendly wearable with OLED display, buzzer alerts, and push-button acknowledgment, the invention overcomes the fragmentation and limitations of existing single-parameter devices, offering a unified, low-cost, and highly reliable solution for independent living and timely emergency response among the aging population.
