MUMBAI, India, June 16 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611055014 A) filed by Abes Engineering College, Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, on April 30, for 'smart multi-sensor fall detection and alert system for elderly care.'
Inventor(s) include Shalini Singh; Monica; and Dr. Shweta Kaushik.
The application for the patent was published on June 5, under issue no. 23/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an artificial intelligence-based multi-sensor fall detection and alert system for elderly care. The system comprises a wearable device equipped with motion sensors including an accelerometer and gyroscope, and physiological sensors for monitoring health parameters. Sensor data is continuously collected and processed using machine learning algorithms to distinguish between normal activities and fall events through multi-sensor data fusion. Upon detection of a fall, the system automatically generates an alert and transmits it to predefined caregivers or emergency contacts via a connected mobile application. The system incorporates adaptive learning to improve detection accuracy over time and is designed with a low-power architecture to enable continuous monitoring. The invention enhances elderly safety by providing real-time fall detection, reducing false alarms, and enabling rapid emergency response."
