Latest Patents

Nayar is credited with 1 patent, titled “Predictive Battery Failure Detection System.” The invention maintains a rolling buffer of vehicle voltage data and analyzes readings around transitions from the engine-off state to the engine-on state. It identifies minimum voltage values from a defined period before each transition and compares them with configurable thresholds to assess battery health.

The system also uses historical voltage data to build time-series models that predict future voltage levels and possible battery failures. It can provide customized alerts through a graphical user interface, including an estimate of the time remaining before a potential failure and recommended maintenance actions.
