Inventor includes Rohit Pareek.
The application for the patent was published on October 02, 2026, under issue no. 40/2026.
Abstract: The present invention discloses an autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) swarm system (100) and method for generating, aerodynamically and electrostatically confining, transporting, and precipitating artificial atmospheric cloud parcels. The system includes a maritime solar-powered platform (102) that generates a concentrated saline-free micro-droplet vapor plume (1–10 µm) via interfacial photothermal evaporation and ultrasonic atomization. A coordinated multi-UAV swarm (114) forms a 3D boundary mesh around the plume, establishing an inward-directed electrostatic confinement field, spraying an evaporation-retardant lipid monolayer (312), and generating an aerodynamic toroidal vortex (324) to isolate the cloud parcel (120) from ambient wind shear and evaporative loss during overland transit. Upon reaching a target arid destination (126), the swarm executes a coordinated transition from a retention mode to a precipitation mode by inverting electrical polarities, emitting acoustic shockwaves, and injecting hygroscopic condensation cores (322), forcing droplet coalescence and inducing targeted rainfall (128).
