Inventor(s) include Dr. Sumit Kalra; and Satish Kumar Ray.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a blind spot detection and augmentation system designed to eliminate the forward blind spot caused by the A-pillar in vehicles. The invention uses a single wide field-of-view dash-mounted camera (180 coverage) combined with real-time computer vision and perspective transformation techniques to detect and augment the hidden region in the driver's view. The system continuously monitors the forward scene, including area obstructed by the A-pillar, detects objects of interest such as animals, cyclists, or vehicles, and projects a reconstructed view of the blind spot into the driver's visual field via an in-vehicle display. Audio/tactile alerts can be triggered for collision prevention."
