MUMBAI, India, June 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641072609 A) filed by Indian Institute Of Information Technology Design And Manufacturing Kurnool on June 11, 2026, for Visual-Based Remotely Operated Vehicle System For Gnss-Denied Environments.
Inventor includes Dr. K. Krishna Naik.
The application for the patent was published on June 19, 2026, under issue no. 25/2026.
Abstract: The present invention relates to a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) for visual-based operation in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)-denied environments. The ROV comprises a chassis, a terrain-adaptive mobility assembly having a differential drive locomotion unit and a rocker-bogie suspension mechanism, a hybrid communication module, an imaging unit, a central processing unit, a motor driver circuit, a remote control interface, a graphical user interface (GUI), and a power supply. The rocker-bogie suspension mechanism distributes weight across multiple wheels enabling the ROV to climb stairs and traverse rough surfaces. The hybrid communication module integrates a Bluetooth module for short-range, a Wi-Fi module for medium-range, and an RF/LoRa module for long-range operation. The imaging unit provides real-time visual data to the operator through the GUI for visual-based navigation without reliance on satellite positioning. The ROV is configurable as operational variants RoVING-S, RoVING-M, and RoVING-L sharing a common mechanical platform. (Figure 1a) (Figure 1)
