MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641047925 A) filed by Agni College Of Technology, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 15, for 'iot - enabled geo intelligent system for electric hazard detection.'
Inventor(s) include Kamatchi Saranya M; Kanchana B; and Yuvasree D.
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: "This project presents an IoT-enabled geo-intelligent system for detecting electrical hazards in floodwater, designed to enhance public safety during urban flooding conditions. Floodwater often carries hidden electrical risks due to damaged power lines or underground cables, posing serious threats to human life. The proposed system integrates a waterproof voltage detection sensor with an ESP32 microcontroller to continuously monitor water for electrical leakage. Upon detecting hazardous voltage levels, the system immediately activates local alerts such as buzzers, LEDs, and voice warnings to notify nearby individuals. In addition, the system sends remote alerts via GSM communication, including precise GPS location data, to electricity board authorities and nearby users for rapid response. The collected data is also uploaded to an IoT cloud platform for real-time monitoring and analysis. The system ensures quick detection, immediate alert generation, and efficient communication, significantly reducing the risk."
