MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641049705 A) filed by Dayananda Sagar Academy Of Technology & Management, Bengaluru, Karnataka, on April 18, for 'covert wearable emergency safety device with encrypted evidence capture and long-range communication.'
Inventor(s) include Priyanka R; Priyanka V Gudada; Dr. P. Mano Paul; Sahana Sharma M; Krithika. N; Supriya. S; Thanmayi Urs; and Thara HC.
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: "A covert wearable emergency safety device for personal security applications comprises a miniaturized sensing subsystem incorporating a 720p/1080p miniature camera, high signal-to-noise ratio MEMS microphone, and multi-constellation GNSS module supporting GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo, synchronized for real-time audio-visual and positional data capture with timestamp alignment. A low-power microcontroller-based processing unit performs AI-assisted distress classification through on-device lightweight neural network models and generates AES-256 encrypted, tamper-proof evidence bundles sealed with SHA-256 cryptographic hash for chain-of-custody integrity. Emergency alert packets are transmitted over long-range LoRa wireless communication without cellular or internet infrastructure dependency, with Bluetooth Low Energy providing secondary relay capability. The system operates in deep-sleep standby mode with autonomous trigger-based activation. Prototype evaluation confirms reliable alert transmission, satisfactory distress detection accuracy, and validated encryption integrity, providing an autonomous, forensically capable, network-independent personal safety solution deployable within concealed everyday personal accessories."
