MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641062086 A) filed by Sr University, Warangal, Telangana, on May 15, for 'system for non-destructive, in-field acoustic resistivity profiling of root-zone development in cereal or legume plants.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Banoth Madhu; and Dr. Navyashree R.
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: "A system for non-destructive, in-field acoustic resistivity profiling of root-zone development in cereal or legume plants, comprise of a calibrated impact hammer 101 configured to deliver standardized mechanical impulses to a reference plate 103 placed on a soil surface, a linear microphone array 102 comprising vertically or near-vertically oriented microphones or geophones arranged at fixed spacing intervals along a vertical axis for capturing depth-resolved acoustic waveforms, and a rigid reference plate 103 configured to transmit acoustic energy into the soil column, a signal processing unit 104 is configured to acquire waveforms, apply band-pass filtering, dispersion correction, and soil-moisture normalization, and invert the signals to generate ARP(z,t), an Isochrony Score 105 module computes temporal synchrony metrics, and a computing system stores ARP and IS data and generates ranked selections."
