MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541133694 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 30, 2025, for 'intelligent plant irrigation system.'
Inventor(s) include U. Vignesh; Monica K M; and Gokul Ram K.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An intelligent plant irrigation system (100) includes sensor units (102) that detect key parameters such as soil moisture and environmental conditions, interconnected to actuators (104), which regulate water distribution based on signals received. A control unit (106) processes the sensor data, generates control signals, and directs the actuators (104) to deliver irrigation according to plant needs. A communication module (108) connects to the control unit (106), enabling data exchange, monitoring, and user adjustments. The actuator (104) is fluidly connected to a liquid storage chamber (110), which stores and supplies water. The chamber (110) and actuator (104) work in conjunction with an irrigation delivery unit (112) that encompasses conduits forming a capillary network for subsurface distribution, a vapor retention system to minimize evaporation, and adaptive materials for efficient moisture management. The communication module (108) is also coupled to a user interface (114) for system monitoring and control."
