MUMBAI, India, Feb. 6 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541122375 A) filed by Nandha Engineering College, Erode, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 5, 2025, for 'ai-based accident detection with predictive context analysis.'

Inventor(s) include C. Balasubramaniam; B. Lokeshwaran; R. S. Janani; and K. Kavitha.

The application for the patent was published on Feb. 6, under issue no. 06/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an automated Accident Detection and Alert System designed to enhance rider and passenger safety by enabling real-time identification of collision events and immediate emergency communication without relying on internet connectivity. The system integrates multiple motion-sensing components, including an accelerometer and gyroscope, to continuously monitor vehicle movement, detect high-impact forces, sudden deceleration, rollover events, or abnormal tilt patterns that are characteristic of accidents. These sensors are embedded within a compact hardware unit connected to a micro controller, which processes the incoming data, filters noise, correlates multi-sensor readings, and classifies event severity using . threshold-based algorithms. To support timely rescue operations, the system incorporates a GPS module that provides accurate real-time location data, enabling precise tracking of the accident site even in geographically remote or low-signal regions. Upon confirming an accident, the micro controller communicates with a GSM module that automatically sends an SMS alert to predefined emergency contacts. This message includes essential information such as the accident status, the user's latitude and longitude, the time of occurrence, and optional continuous updates until help arrives. The system further includes an .emergency. countdown mechanism that allows the. user to cancel . . . . . . . . .

Designed as a low-cost, compact, and easy-to-install solution, the invention is suitable for motorcycles, scooters, cars, and other vehicles without requiring modifications or advanced technical knowledge. By operating solely through GSM - based communication, it ensures uninterrupted functionality even without internet access, making it especially valuable in rural or isolated areas. The invention significantly improves emergency response times, increases the likelihood of timely medical assistance, and provides a reliable safety mechanism for reducing accident-related fatalities and injuries."
