MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202631020115 A) filed by Guru Nanak Institute Of Technology, Kolkata, West Bengal, on Feb. 20, for 'biomer: a sustainable greenhouse initiative.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Nabaneeta Banerjee; Dr. Anurima Majumdar; Mr. Koushik Pal; Sanya Ray; Rajnandini Paul; Pratyay Som; Dipanjan Chatterjee; and Preeti Rai.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An automated multi-storied greenhouse system integrates vertically stacked cultivation layers with a network of environmental and soil sensors (temperature, humidity, soil moisture and nutrient sensors), a microcontroller-based control unit with IoT communication, and actuators including exhaust fans, irrigation motors/spray modules and adjustable ventilation elements to maintain layer-specific growing conditions via an intelligent control algorithm. A preferred three-tier, transparent walled structure with an aluminum mirror roof enables simultaneous multi-crop cultivation under independently controlled microclimates while solar panels with battery backup provide continuous power. The system enables real-time monitoring and remote control, reduces manual labour, optimizes resource use and supports year-round production in industrial and compact rooftop settings."
