MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611113221 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 22, 2026, for A Privacy-Aware Behavioral Anomaly Detection System For Automated Safety Control And Emergency Response.
Inventors include Nitin Saini; and Dr. Jarnail Singh.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a privacy-aware behavioral anomaly detection system for automated safety control and emergency response in smart environments. The system comprises a plurality of sensors for monitoring appliance usage, occupancy and environmental conditions, a processing unit configured to learn user-specific appliance usage patterns and generate a behavioral profile, an actuation unit for controlling monitored appliances, a communication unit for transmitting alerts, and a safety layer providing manual override. During operation, real-time sensor information is compared with the learned behavioral profile to determine an anomaly condition based on temporal, duration, occupancy and environmental factors. Depending on anomaly severity, the system provides user alerts, permits authorized remote shutdown, or automatically disconnects selected high-risk appliances and initiates emergency communication. Behavioral processing may be performed locally to reduce unnecessary transmission of sensitive usage information. Fail-safe mechanisms maintain user control during system or communication failures.
