MUMBAI, India, Aug. 10 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202411103220 A) filed by Lovely Professional University on December 26, 2024, for Intelligent Food Waste Management System For Institutional Settings.

Inventor includes Vishu.

The application for the patent was published on July 31, 2026, under issue no. 31/2026.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an intelligent food waste management system designed for institutional settings, which integrates a user identification mechanism, a measurement meter, an automated data analysis component, a dual incentive and penalty system, and a feedback mechanism. The system employs an ID card and barcode scanner to link each user to a specific plate, allowing for precise tracking of food waste. A measurement meter records the initial and final weights of food waste, enabling real-time monitoring. The automated data analysis component processes this data, utilizing data analytics and machine learning to provide insights into consumption patterns and trends. The dual incentive and penalty system rewards users who demonstrate reduced wastage and imposes fines on those with higher wastage levels, thereby promoting responsible consumption. Users receive visibility into their individual wastage metrics through a feedback mechanism accessible via a digital interface or app.
