MUMBAI, India, June 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411089522 A) filed by Pulkit Ahuja; and Deeksha Raheja on November 19, 2024, for Smart Cutlery For Real-Time Caloric Intake Monitoring.

Inventor includes Pulkit Ahuja.

The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.

Abstract: A smart dining system (100) is disclosed for automatically tracking nutritional intake during buffet-style or self-service dining. The system includes one or more smart serving trays (102) equipped with a weight sensor (104), a processing unit (150), a memory (120) storing nutritional information, and a wireless transmitter (152). When a user removes a portion of food, the tray (102) detects a reduction in weight and determines a corresponding nutritional value. This nutritional value is communicated in real time to a smart plate (110) or user device (160) having a wireless receiver (162), an electronic display (112, 164), and a processing arrangement (166) that updates both per-portion and cumulative nutritional totals. Optional components include a tray identifier (170), a refill detector (174), an indicator element (176), and a smart serving utensil (130) having a utensil-mounted weight sensor (132), plate identification sensor (134), and wireless transmitter (136). A backend dashboard (122) may remotely manage nutritional parameters and log consumption data (184). The system enables seamless, accurate, real-time nutritional tracking without requiring manual input, plate weighing, or interruption to the user’s natural serving behavior. FIG. 1
