MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641048596 A) filed by Srm Trp Engineering College on April 16, 2026, for Autonomous Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion System For Ai-Driven Food Waste Minimization In Smart Storage Environments.
Inventors include Dr. S Sabeetha Saraswathi; and K Niharika.
The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to an autonomous multi-modal sensor fusion system for AI-driven food waste minimization in smart storage environments. The system integrates multiple sensors including temperature, humidity, gas, weight, and visual sensors to monitor food storage conditions. A sensor fusion module combines the collected data and processes it using artificial intelligence algorithms. A multi-agent AI framework analyzes the fused data to estimate food freshness and spoilage risk. Based on these predictions, actuator mechanisms regulate storage conditions and generate user notifications. The invention provides an intelligent and automated approach to reducing food waste and improving sustainable food storage management.
