MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641024525 A) filed by Chilakapati Anil Kumar, Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, on March 2, for 'a visibility-optimized green space configuration system for enhancing usability across housing typologies.'
Inventor(s) include Dr Prashanti Rao.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention provides a visibility-optimized green space configuration system and method for residential layouts. The system evaluates visual accessibility parameters, including line of sight and enclosure, between dwelling units and potential green spaces to create a visibility heatmap. It identifies the housing typology (row, group, or multi-unit) of the development and applies a corresponding set of geometric configuration rules to generate an optimized green space layout. For row housing, it proposes linear green verges; for group housing, central courtyards; and for multi-unit developments, distributed pocket parks. By prioritizing visual exposure and natural surveillance, the invention enhances the usability and perceived safety of green spaces, ensuring they are actively used by residents, thereby overcoming the limitations of conventional area-based planning approaches. The invention is implemented as a computer-based decision-support tool for urban planners and designers."
