MUMBAI, India, Feb. 6 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511133342 A) filed by Abes Engineering College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on Dec. 30, 2025, for 'smart irrigation and rainwater-management system for hilly and water-scarce agricultural terrains.'
Inventor(s) include Prof. Manidipa Roy; Prof. Kimmi Verma; Vaibhav Kumar Singh; Yash Goel; Vihaan Kaushik; Shivam Kumar Tiwari; Piyush Sharma; and Archana.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 6, under issue no. 06/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a smart irrigation and rainwater-management system engineered for hilly and water-scarce agricultural regions. The system integrates distributed IoT-based sensing units, an ESP32 microcontroller, a self-learning artificial-intelligence prediction engine, a hybrid cloud-edge connectivity framework, and an automated pump-and-valve actuation assembly. Real-time measurements of soil moisture, soil pH, atmospheric conditions, and rainwater-tank levels are analyzed to generate predictive irrigation schedules optimized for uneven terrain. The system autonomously regulates water distribution using AI-derived decisions, prevents pump dry-running through continuous tank-level validation, and remains fully operational during connectivity disruptions via on-device edge inference. A mobile and web dashboard provides live monitoring, alerts, analytics, and manual control options. The invention delivers a low-cost, terrain-adaptive, and sustainable irrigation ecosystem that enhances water efficiency, supports climate-resilient agriculture, and enables reliable use of harvested rainwater in challenging topographies."
