MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641043402 A) filed by R. M. K. Engineering College, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 5, for 'wearable health and position surveillance assembly for hazardous environments.'

Inventor(s) include M. Stanlywit; Ramya P; Jency Jovita S M; Samyuktha RS; Priyadharshini S; and Rakshath Raj Y.

The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This project involves the design and implementation of a real-time soldier health and location tracking system using embedded computing and wireless communication technologies. The system is built around a Raspberry Pi/PCO-RP24 microcontroller platform interfaced with GSM and GPS modules. It continuously monitors the physiological status of a soldier as well as their geographic position. The GPS module captures the soldier's coordinates, which are processed by the controller and communicated through the GSM network to a remote monitoring station. Simultaneously, health data is gathered from wearable sensors connected to the system. The integrated solution enables remote commanders or support teams to track the wellbeing and exact location of personnel in real time, enhancing operational awareness and safety in field environments."
