MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611008859 A) filed by Dr. Mohd Tauseef Khan; Dr. Anurag Chauhan; Mr. Abhijeet Singh; Dr. Pushpendra Singh; Dr. Mohammed Aslam Husain; Prof. S. P. Shukla; and Rajkiya Engineering College, Banda, Uttar Pradesh, on Jan. 29, for 'an autonomous artificial intelligence-integrated agricultural robotic system utilizing vision transformers for precision agronomy.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Mohd Tauseef Khan; Dr. Anurag Chauhan; Mr. Abhijeet Singh; Dr. Pushpendra Singh; Dr. Mohammed Aslam Husain; and Prof. S. P. Shukla.

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: "An autonomous, multi-functional agricultural robotic system is disclosed, integrating Artificial Intelligence and Vision Transformers (ViT) for advanced agronomical management. The system comprises a multi-layer frame structure supporting modular units for ploughing, seeding, spraying, and irrigation. A central control unit utilizes ViT-based perception to facilitate global contextual awareness of the field, enabling precise weed identification and crop health assessment. The system further employs Reinforcement Learning for adaptive mechanical control and Edge-AI for real-time soil nutrient and moisture analysis. Integrated with IoT capabilities, the robot supports Digital Twin modeling for predictive maintenance and swarm intelligence for multi-robot coordination. By synthesizing high-fidelity environmental sensing with intelligent actuation, the invention optimizes resource utilization, reduces chemical input, and enhances operational efficiency in precision farming."
