MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641063482 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on May 19, for 'a crowd threat assessment and response system and method for real-time crowd threat narration.'
Inventor(s) include Archana Tamizharasan; P Bhavana; Jaavanika L; Kona Meghana; and Yamuna Devi.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a crowd threat assessment and response system and method for real-time monitoring and proactive risk mitigation are disclosed. The system integrates a data ingestion module for standardizing live CCTV streams, recorded videos, and static images, with a computer vision and localization module that detects individuals and generates precise spatial coordinate data using a point-based neural network. A spatial clustering module analyzes inter-person distances to identify dense crowd formations, while a threat assessment module computes a dynamic spatio-temporal anomaly index based on crowd density, topology, and hotspot intensity to determine threat states. A generative reasoning module produces human-readable situational narration and recommended actions, which are presented through an annotated visualization interface. An alert dispatch module selectively communicates alerts to operators or responders based on threat levels. The corresponding method enables real-time crowd analysis, threat detection, contextual narration, and automated response generation, including in challenging conditions such as occlusion and low-light environments, thereby enhancing situational awareness and enabling timely intervention."
