The application for the patent was published on Jan. 23, under issue no. 04/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The Smart Blind Spot Detection and Distance Measurement System of Vehicles through Multi-Sensor Combination and an AI-Based Warning System is a multilayered safety system. The process starts with a complex system of sensors working in an all-time basis to capture real-time information in the entire .environment of the vehicle in order to create a dynamic map of the environment. This, data is immediately inputted into the Al engine engine that processes it and with the help of sophisticated algorithms, identifies, classifies, and monitors all objects (vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists, etc.) in the area. This system will then trigger hazard processes and detection which is continuously monitoring the speed, proximity and the direction of tracked objects in relation to the host vehicle, otherwise threatening the blind spots or entering the host vehicle too close. When a threatening scenario is detected, context-specific warnings are triggered giving the driver immediate, specific alerts through visual systems on the dashboard and mirrors or auditory systems. Lastly, when a.crash is about to happen, the system will enter into advanced intervention and make the slightest steering corrections or braking effort to actively assist the driver in preventing or reducing the impact of the crash."
