MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511114979 A) filed by Chandigarh University, Mohali, Punjab, on Nov. 21, 2025, for 'smart helmet with crash detection and alert system.'
Inventor(s) include Sinku Kumawat; Shailja Saini; Muskan Patel; Piyush Jain; and Neetu.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an adaptive multi-modal smart helmet that autonomously detects, evaluates, and responds to crash incidents through integrated sensors, artificial intelligence, and autonomous communication systems. The helmet comprises motion, impact, acoustic, barometric, and biometric sensors embedded within an impact-resistant structure. Data from these sensors are analyzed by an onboard AI processor that computes crash probability and injury severity. Upon confirmation of a critical event, the system activates protective mechanisms such as an inflatable air-cushion collar and initiates automatic emergency communication via cellular or satellite networks, transmitting the rider's location and health status. The helmet includes secure data logging, power harvesting from solar and kinetic sources, and adaptive machine learning for improved accuracy. This invention provides a self-contained, intelligent safety solution that ensures real-time protection and rescue coordination without dependence on external devices or manual intervention."
