MUMBAI, India, Sept. 28 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202621098376 A) filed by Birla Vishvakarma Mahavidyalaya Engineering College; Prof. Ashish Thakkar; Prof. Dr. Vinay J Patel; Dr. Mehfuza Holia; Nirmay Gajjar; Rohit Jasoliya; Tushar Galaiya; and Akshay Singh on August 14, 2026, for System And Method For Coordinated Control Of Swarm Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.

Inventors include Prof. Ashish Thakkar; Prof. Dr. Vinay J Patel; Dr. Mehfuza Holia; Nirmay Gajjar; Rohit Jasoliya; Tushar Galaiya; and Akshay Singh.

The application for the patent was published on September 25, 2026, under issue no. 39/2026.

Abstract: System and method for coordinated control of a swarm of unmanned aerial vehicles is described herein. The system (1) comprises a plurality of drones (10), each including a frame (100), propulsion units (200), electronic speed controllers (300), a flight controller (400), an onboard computing unit (500), a communication module (600), a navigation module (700), and a power module (800). An external control device (900) transmits command inputs over a communication network using a network based protocol. The onboard computing unit (500) processes the command inputs to generate navigation coordinates corresponding to user defined spatial formations and translates the inputs into drone specific navigation paths. Each drone (10) independently computes its position and executes synchronized flight operations to achieve dynamic formation control. The system enables centralized command transmission and distributed execution for coordinated and autonomous swarm operation.
