MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641064470 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on May 21, for 'modular autonomous quadruped robotic system with multi-modal locomotion and adaptive navigation.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Kathirvelan J; Siddharth Soumitra Deodhar; Rishit Sinha; and Pruthav Purandare.
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: "A modular autonomous quadruped robotic system is disclosed. The system comprises a processing unit, an actuation system, a sensing unit, and a communication interface configured to implement a unified control architecture. The processing unit coordinates execution of multiple operational modes including pre-programmed locomotion, autonomous navigation based on sensor input, and wireless teleoperation. A mode management system enables controlled switching between operational modes, and a task scheduler coordinates execution of control tasks to maintain actuator synchronization and system responsiveness. Sensor-based navigation enables obstacle detection and path adjustment, while teleoperation enables real-time remote control. The system operates within constrained computational resources while maintaining stable locomotion and adaptive functionality."
