MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641048739 A) filed by Chaitanya Bharathi Institute Of Technology, Kadapa, Andhra Pradesh, on April 16, for 'design and fabrication of an intelligent speed-adaptive braking system for electric vehicles.'
Inventor(s) include Sagili Timothy; Chenna Venkata Srujan; Chowdam Lokesh; and Maccha Sirisha.
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 Design and Fabrication of a Speed-Adaptive Regenerative Braking System for Electric Vehicles aim to enhance energy efficiency by recovering kinetic energy during braking and converting it into usable electrical energy. This system employs an Arduino microcontroller as the central control unit to monitor vehicle speed, braking conditions, voltage, and current parameters in real time. A DC motor and BO motor, coupled with wheels, are used to simulate the electric vehicle drivetrain, while a motor driver enables controlled speed variation and regenerative braking operation. Speed-adaptive braking is achieved using a potentiometer to vary motor speed and a pushbutton to initiate braking, allowing the system to adjust regeneration based on operating conditions. Voltage and current sensors measure the regenerated power returned to a 12V battery, and the measured parameters are displayed on an LCD for continuous monitoring. LEDs indicate driving and regenerative braking modes for visual feedback. The prototype demonstrates the feasibility of implementing a speed-adaptive regenerative braking mechanism to improve energy recovery, reduce power losses, and extend battery life in electric vehicles."
