MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611113250 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 22, 2026, for Bio-Inspired Iot Robotic Fish System With Integrated Sensors For Water Ecosystem Health Monitoring.

Inventor includes Apoorva.

The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a bio-inspired IoT-enabled robotic fish designed for real time, mobile water quality monitoring. The robotic fish features a compact, hydrodynamic 5 body that mimics natural locomotion, ensuring low-disturbance navigation in aquatic environments. Integrated within the fish body are multi-sensor modules capable of measuring pH, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, conductivity, heavy metals, and microplastics. The invention further incorporates adaptive sampling algorithms that dynamically adjust swimming paths to trace pollution sources and anomalies. Multiple robotic fish can operate 10 in a swarm-based cooperative configuration, enabling wide-area coverage of lakes, rivers, reservoirs, and coastal waters. Data collected is transmitted via IoT communication protocols to a cloud platform, where it is processed into pollution heatmaps, analytics dashboards, and real time alerts. This invention offers a cost-effective, scalable, and sustainable alternative to conventional fixed monitoring stations and bulky AUVs, thereby 15 enhancing early detection, prevention, and management of water contamination
