MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641061028 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on May 14, for 'system and method for predictive emergency corridor formation using vehicle-to-everything communication.'
Inventor(s) include Jagadeesh; and M S Shabreena.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An autonomous robotic system (100) for on-orbit servicing of satellite batteries is disclosed. The system comprises a free-flying spacecraft base (102) having propulsion components (104), a multi-joint robotic manipulator (106), a set of sensors (108), and a control system (112). The control system (112) is configured to enable vision-based navigation using sensor data and deep-learning-based pose estimation to interact with uncooperative or tumbling satellites. The system further includes an onboard diagnostic module (110) having a thermal imaging unit and a physics-informed neural network for detecting thermal signatures and estimating battery state of health to localize faulty cells without reliance on ground-based telemetry. The control system (112) is further configured to coordinate propulsion components (104) and the robotic manipulator (106) in a coupled manner to compensate microgravity-induced reaction forces and maintain stability during capture, extraction, and replacement of battery modules."
