MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641018037 A) filed by Vallurupalli Nageswara Rao Vignana Jyothi Institute Of Engineering And Technology, Hyderabad, Telangana, on Feb. 18, for 'integrated ultrasonic rodent repellent system for automotive applications.'

Inventor(s) include Swathi Kadari; Dr. Karumuri Sri Rama Murthy; Vijayakumar Chilamkurthi; Ch Suresh Kumar Raju; Kothoju Sri Vaishnavi; G Sishir Aditya Gnanesh Reddy; and Narayana Sai Lokesh.

The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An integrated ultrasonic rodent repellent system (1) for automotive applications is disclosed. The system comprises an electronic control unit (1), an ultrasonic signal generation module (2), a transistor-assisted drive circuit (4), and an electro-acoustic transducer (3) configured to emit ultrasonic sound waves within a frequency range of 22 kHz to 35 kHz. Activation sensing logic (6) selectively enables operation during vehicle idle conditions to conserve power. The control unit generates dynamically swept ultrasonic bursts with temporal variation to prevent rodent habituation. The system is housed within a thermally robust enclosure (7) for engine compartment installation. Simulation and physical testing validate effective rodent deterrence without audible disturbance, providing a low-power, autonomous solution for protecting automotive wiring and components."
