MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621041891 A) filed by Pragati Patharia; Sachin Vishwakarma; Praveena Rajput; Dr Nishi Yadav; Dr Vishnu Yadav; Shivam Bharti; and Shristy Mishra, Bilaspur, Chattisgarh, on April 1, for 'ai-based multi-surface adaptive smart cleaning bot with intelligent waste detection and optimized navigation system.'
Inventor(s) include Pragati Patharia; Sachin Vishwakarma; Praveena Rajput; Dr Nishi Yadav; Dr Vishnu Yadav; Shivam Bharti; and Shristy Mishra.
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 an AI-based multi-surface adaptive smart cleaning bot system (100) for autonomous indoor floor cleaning. The system comprises a mobile robotic body, a control and processing unit, a navigation and obstacle detection subsystem having ultrasonic sensors and wheel encoders, an imaging unit for waste detection, a surface recognition module, a cleaning subsystem having a suction motor, suction pump and dust collection chamber, a mobility and drive subsystem, and a power subsystem with a solar charging module. The control and processing unit detects waste distribution and floor type, determines a cleaning requirement, controls cleaning intensity, and autonomously navigates while avoiding obstacles. The system dynamically re-optimizes its cleaning path based on detected obstacles and floor conditions, prioritizes high-waste regions, and reduces operational activity or enters charging mode when battery power falls below a threshold. The invention provides low-cost, energy-efficient and intelligent cleaning without requiring LiDAR-based navigation."
