MUMBAI, India, Sept. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411020505 A) filed by Bennett University, Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, on March 19, 2024, for 'intelligent image processing for self-driving cars.'

Inventor(s) include Prof. Ajith Abraham; and Dr. Madhushi Verma.

The application for the patent was published on Sept. 26, under issue no. 39/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention describes an intelligent image processing system tailored for self-driving cars, facilitating safe and reliable autonomous driving. The system incorporates a set of cameras that continuously capture surrounding environmental data from multiple views. An image preprocessing unit, linked to the cameras, processes the captured images by reducing noise, normalizing lighting, and correcting distortions, ensuring high-quality input for subsequent analysis. An object detection module, communicatively linked with the image preprocessing unit, identifies and classifies objects present within the images, such as pedestrians, vehicles, and traffic signs. Utilizing the classified object information, a decision-making module makes driving decisions, enabling the self-driving car to navigate through traffic and complex scenarios effectively. This intelligent image processing system empowers self-driving cars with the necessary perception and decision-making capabilities, contributing to safer and more efficient autonomous transportation."
