MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521129560 A) filed by Rajarambapu Institute Of Technology, Sangli, Maharashtra, on Dec. 20, 2025, for 'portable smartphone-powered air quality monitoring and crowdsourced geo-tagged aqi mapping system with cloud integration.'
Inventor(s) include Aaryan Sanjay Jadhav; Siddhant Nandgave; Ishan Kekalekar; Prof. Juber M. Mulla; and Prof. Dipak R. Patil.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention describes a smartphone-integrated portable air quality monitoring and visualization system designed to provide real-time, geo-tagged environmental assessment through a distributed network architecture. The system comprises a compact sensor module configured to interface with a mobile computing device, drawing operational power and transmitting raw environmental data for processing. A dedicated software application executed on the smartphone computes the Air Quality Index (AQI), associates it with GPS coordinates, and securely transmits the data to a cloud-based aggregation server. The server aggregates data from multiple users to generate a high-resolution, dynamic, and crowdsourced air quality map accessible through the mobile interface. This architecture minimizes hardware complexity by delegating computation and communication tasks to the smartphone while enabling large-scale, community-driven environmental surveillance. The system offers a cost-effective, scalable, and participatory approach to monitoring air pollution, enhancing public awareness and supporting informed decision-making on environmental health and safety."
