MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611049881 A) filed by Manav Rachna University, Faridabad, Haryana, on April 20, for 'intelligent driver drowsiness detection system.'
Inventor(s) include Kavita Singh; Richa Adlakha; and Ashish Grover.
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: "Disclosed is a driver vigilance restraint system including a processor-supported housing, a vision-based monitoring unit for acquiring image data of a driver face region, and a smart safety belt having embedded motion sensors that generate belt-derived motion signals. A fusion determination evaluates the image data together with the belt-derived motion signals to identify a drowsiness condition. An alerting interface generates a drowsiness alert and initiates a vehicle response when a driver response is not detected. The system enables coordinated tactile and audible alert escalation while supporting vehicle deceleration through a control interface. Integration of wearable sensing with visual monitoring provides improved detection confidence and enhances driver engagement through physically coupled feedback while enabling responsive vehicle safety actions."
