MUMBAI, India, Jan. 23 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511125088 A) filed by Swami Rama Himalayan University, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, on Dec. 11, 2025, for 'a sensor data logging and obstacle detection system for an iot-enabled assistive cane.'
Inventor(s) include Ashutosh Bhatt; Pooja Joshi; and Gaurav Aggarwal.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 23, under issue no. 04/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an IoT-enabled assistive cane featuring a sensing module with ultrasonic sensors, an inertial measurement unit and an optional GPS module configured for multi-level obstacle detection, coupled with a data logging and processing unit employing a Kalman filter for noise reduction, and a communication module supporting Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for wireless data transmission. Additionally, an audio feedback subsystem with a speaker assembly and an integrated haptic feedback mechanism with vibration motors provide intuitive obstacle alerts, while a power management module ensures stable energy distribution from a rechargeable battery. The system efficiently logs timestamped sensor data, optionally with geographic coordinates, and processes environmental inputs to deliver real-time feedback for enhanced user navigation in dynamic environments."
