MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641043654 A) filed by Srm Valliammai Engineering College, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 6, for 'iot enabled wireless portable multi parameter soil monitoring device.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. S. Packialakshmi; K. Abinaya; S. Prasanth Kumar; and V. Pushpa Ragavi.
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: "Precision agriculture reqmres the continuous and precise monitoring of soil parameters in order to increase productivity and optimize the utilization of available resources. The proposed invention demonstrated the design and implementation of an loT technology-based wireless multi-parameter soil monitoring device, which has the potential to measure various soil parameters such as soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and pH in real time. The proposed system uses various sensors along with a microcontroller unit for processing, and it utilizes various wireless protocols for data transmission to the cloud platform. The proposed system has the potential to display the data in real time, which will be useful for farmers in taking appropriate decisions regarding soil moisture and nutrient usage. The proposed system is cost-effective, energy-efficient, and has the potential for application in small as well as large-scale agricultural practices. The proposed device has the potential to increase water efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and encourage sustainable practices in the field of agriculture through intelligent soil condition monitoring. Keywords: Internet of Things (loT), Precision Agriculture, Soil Moisture Monitoring, Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), Multi-Parameter Sensing, Smart Irrigation, Cil Cloud-Based Monitoring, Sustainable Farming."
