MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641048404 A) filed by B N M Institute of Technology; Smt. Priyanka S; Thrisha R; Vismaya M; and Yashaswini K M, Bengaluru, Karnataka, on April 16, for 'a computer-implemented system and method for real-time disaster response management using multimodal data fusion, trust validation, and hazard-aware evacuation routing.'
Inventor(s) include Smt. Priyanka S; Thrisha R; Vismaya M; and Yashaswini K M.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a computer-implemented system and method for real-time disaster response management in smart environments. The system integrates multimodal data acquisition, artificial intelligence-based disaster classification, trust validation, hazard prediction, and hazard-aware evacuation routing within a unified digital twin framework. Data obtained from citizen-generated inputs and IoT sensor networks is processed to identify disaster type, severity, and confidence levels. A trust validation mechanism evaluates the reliability of incoming data through spatial and temporal consistency analysis and cross-verification with sensor inputs. A dynamic risk prediction engine generates and updates hazard maps to forecast disaster evolution. Based on predicted risk levels, the system computes safe evacuation routes and assigns response tasks using adaptive allocation mechanisms. A digital twin interface provides real-time visualization for coordinated decision-making, thereby improving response efficiency, reducing misinformation, and enhancing safety during disaster scenarios."
