MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611114715 A) filed by Chitkara University on September 24, 2026, for An Automated Garment-Counting And Verification Bag System, And A Method Therefor.
Inventors include Parth Bathla; Dr. Poonam Jindal; Dr. Amandeep Kaur; and Dr. Chetna Sharma.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: An automated garment-counting and verification bag system comprises a bag housing having a motion sensor to detect a garment-drop event, a camera module to capture an image of an entry zone responsive to the detected event, and an AI garment-counting module configured to detect, classify, and count a deposited garment. A display screen and an input control panel receive and display a diary-entered expected count, an audible alert module and a status indicator light generate a confirmation or discrepancy indication, and a local storage module stores a timestamped photographic evidentiary record. A wireless communication module exports a count log and photographic evidence to a mobile application upon a handover event. The system verifies a detected garment tally against the diary-entered expected count on-device, without a per-garment tag or continuous manual counting, generating an objective, photographically-backed record resolving a laundry-count dispute, in place of a manual, memory-dependent, or tag-based counting arrangement.
