MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611024473 A) filed by Chandigarh University, Mohali, Punjab, on March 2, for 'an iot-based smart home automation system.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Rohan Gupta; Aman; and Akshma.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an Internet of Things (IoT)-based smart home automation system designed to enhance residential security, safety, convenience, and energy efficiency. The system comprises a wireless-enabled microcontroller, preferably an ESP32, operatively connected to an automated door mechanism using a servo motor, an interior lighting control unit via a relay module, an outdoor lighting system governed by a light-dependent resistor (LDR) sensor, a fire detection unit, and a smart camera module. The microcontroller communicates with a cloud-based IoT platform to enable real-time monitoring and remote control through a mobile or web-based interface. The door mechanism allows secure remote access while automatically triggering the camera for surveillance. Interior lighting can be controlled remotely, whereas outdoor lighting operates automatically based on ambient light conditions to reduce energy consumption. Upon detection of fire, the system activates an alarm and transmits real-time alerts to the user."
