MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511117738 A) filed by Swami Rama Himalayan University, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, on Nov. 26, 2025, for 'ai-powered gas hazard prediction and gsm emergency alert platform for rural environments.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Suman Pant; Dr. Vibhor Sharma; and Dr. Deepak Srivastava.

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 an adaptive, low-cost gas hazard detection and emergency alert system designed for rural and semi-urban households. The system employs MQ-series sensors to monitor carbon monoxide, LPG, methane, and smoke, and uses a microcontroller-based platform integrated with an AI-driven adaptive thresholding algorithm that learns environmental baselines and predicts hazardous gas buildup. Upon detecting abnormal concentration levels, the device activates a local buzzer and LED indicator and simultaneously transmits SMS alerts through a GSM module to predefined contacts. The system operates without internet connectivity and supports battery-based or solar-assisted power, ensuring functionality during outages. The invention provides an affordable, portable, and open-source platform that enhances safety, reduces false alarms, and offers early warning capability for communities lacking conventional gas monitoring infrastructure."
