MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621007678 A) filed by Parul University; Shrikant Ananda Chavan; Dr. Vinayak Pandurang Sutar; and Dr. Vijay Jagdish Upadhye, Vadodara, Gujarat, on Jan. 27, for 'intelligent edge-based adaptive accident response system and the method with multimodal sensor fusion.'
Inventor(s) include Shrikant Ananda Chavan; Dr. Vinayak Pandurang Sutar; and Dr. Vijay Jagdish Upadhye.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an intelligent edge-based system for real-time vehicular accident detection and emergency response. The system addresses the limitations of static threshold-based prior art 40by employing a multimodal sensor fusion framework (Accelerometer, Gyroscope, GPS) to calculate a probabilistic confidence score for crash events. A novel feature of the invention is its "Adaptive Thresholding" logic, which dynamically recalibrates sensitivity based on road surface roughness, thereby eliminating false positives caused by potholes and speed breakers. Furthermore, the system integrates a network-aware communication stack that ensures guaranteed alert delivery by automatically switching between HTTP data, SMS fallback, and offline store-and-forward modes depending on cellular coverage. The device functions autonomously at the edge, ensuring zero-latency decision making and high reliability in diverse road conditions."
