Inventor(s) include Kaushik Das; Koel Datta Purkayastha; Surajit Kundu; and Sambhu Nath Pradhan.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an Internet of Things (IoT)-based environmental monitoring and forecasting system is disclosed for real-time sensing and prediction of environmental parameters. The system comprises a compact hardware unit incorporating a NodeMCU microcontroller with Wi-Fi capability, an ADS1115 analog interface module, and multiple sensors for detecting carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, temperature, and humidity. The sensed data is periodically transmitted to a remote server via TCP/IP communication, where it is stored, processed, and displayed through a web interface and a mobile application for authorized users. The system further includes a forecasting engine that utilizes seasonal autoregressive integrated moving average (SARIMA) models to generate future temperature and humidity predictions based on historical data. The invention also provides features for sensor initialization, scheduled data acquisition, and network connectivity management. The disclosed system offers a compact, energy-efficient, and reliable solution for continuous environmental monitoring and short-term forecasting."
