According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a voice-based hydration system with automatic throat dryness detection and real-time water dispensing. The system comprises a voice acquisition module configured to capture speech signals of a user, a signal processing unit adapted to extract bioacoustic parameters, and an artificial intelligence-based classification module for identifying throat dryness or dehydration status. Upon detection of dryness, an automatic liquid dispensing unit delivers a controlled quantity of water to the user without manual intervention. The system may further include a predictive analytics module for habit recognition and anticipatory hydration guidance, and may be implemented as a wearable device or a desk-mounted unit. The invention provides a compact, intelligent, and privacy-preserving solution to address dehydration-related discomfort, particularly for individuals such as teachers, singers, public speakers, patients, and professionals requiring continuous vocal effort. The system offers applications in healthcare, wellness, elderly care, and occupational health monitoring."
