MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541122981 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 5, 2025, for 'smart wildlife conservation system using iot systems.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Prakash R; and Kshitij Takiar.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure provides a smart wildlife conservation system comprising an ESP32-CAM microcontroller module with dual-core processor and integrated OV2640 camera sensor, a TinyML machine learning model trained using Edge Impulse platform for on-device inference with memory usage below 500 KB, wherein the TinyML model classifies captured images into animal detection, human detection, and background classification categories with accuracy exceeding 85%, a power management system incorporating deep sleep functionality reducing current consumption below 2 mA during inactive periods, a motion-triggered activation system using PIR sensor connected to GPIO pin for external wakeup from deep sleep, and a communication module supporting wireless protocols for alert transmission. The system enables autonomous wildlife monitoring in remote conservation areas through edge computing capabilities eliminating dependency on continuous internet connectivity while providing real-time detection and alert generation."
