MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511114561 A) filed by Deepak Kumar Prajapati; and I. T. S Engineering College, Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, on Nov. 20, 2025, for 'compact mmwave smart switch system integrating non-contact health monitoring and smart home automation.'

Inventor(s) include Deepak Kumar Prajapati; Shubham Kumar; Shashwat Pandey; and Md Samiruddin Ansari.

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 invention discloses a compact multifunctional smart switch system integrating high-frequency millimeter-wave (mmWave) radar sensing, embedded control, and wireless connectivity for smart home automation and non-contact health monitoring. Designed to fit within a standard wall switch form factor, the system utilizes a mmWave radar sensor to detect human presence, motion, and vital signs such as respiration and micro-movements without requiring direct contact, cameras, or wearable devices. The embedded microcontroller processes radar data in real-time, autonomously controlling electrical appliances through a solid-state relay while transmitting sensor information via Wi-Fi to a web application for visualization and control. The device also integrates Zigbee communication for seamless interoperability with existing smart home networks. The system supports customizable automation rules for occupancy-based control, safety alerts, and energy optimization. By combining presence detection, life sign monitoring, and smart switching in one unit, the invention provides a privacy-preserving, energy-efficient, and intelligent platform for residential, commercial, and healthcare environments."
