MUMBAI, India, Aug. 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411104078 A) filed by Lovely Professional University on December 28, 2024, for Bioacoustic System For Wildlife-Vehicle Collision Mitigation.
Inventor includes Dr Harsh Gulati.
The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a bioacoustic system designed to mitigate wildlife-vehicle collisions by utilizing a network of vehicle detection sensors and bioacoustic signal emitters. The system utilizes radar or infrared sensors strategically placed along roadways to detect vehicle presence and approach. A central control unit processes sensor data and activates bioacoustic signal emitters, broadcasting predator calls, alarm calls, or distress signals from a species-specific database to deter wildlife. The system is powered by an energy-efficient setup, potentially solar-based, to support the sensors, emitters, and control unit. It adapts signals based on wildlife type, time of day, and season for maximum effectiveness. Suitable for areas like national parks and reserves, it includes a data collection module to monitor wildlife habituation and behavior near roads.
