Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION
[0001] The present invention relates to a safety patrolling torch that is capable of providing enhanced visibility, situational awareness, and emergency response support during security, law enforcement, and field patrolling operations.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] Security personnel, law enforcement officers, and field patrollers often operate in dynamic and high-risk environments where visibility, threat detection, and timely response are crucial. These professionals require equipment that not only illuminates their surroundings but also assists in recognizing potential hazards, navigating unfamiliar areas, and responding to emergencies without delay. Inadequate lighting, lack of real-time situational awareness, and limited communication capabilities can compromise safety and reduce the effectiveness of patrol operations. Furthermore, identifying concealed threats or evidence, recognizing suspicious behaviour, or maintaining communication with command centres becomes challenging in low-light or high-stress scenarios. There exists a growing need for a versatile solution that combines visibility enhancement with responsive alerting, movement tracking, and environmental assessment to support users in making informed decisions and maintaining safety during routine or critical field duties.
[0003] Traditionally, flashlights or handheld torches used for patrolling purposes are limited to basic illumination functions and often lack integration with advanced sensing or alerting features. These conventional tools provide a static beam of light without adapting to changes in the environment or offering any form of object recognition or situational feedback. Users must rely heavily on their personal awareness and separate communication tools to detect threats or coordinate responses. Moreover, detecting hidden materials, monitoring area conditions, or identifying specific cues such as foul odors or heat traces is beyond the scope of conventional torches. This creates a significant operational gap, especially in scenarios involving search missions, forensic evaluations, or high-risk security patrols.
[0004] US20230230267A1 discloses a computer that includes a processor and a memory, the memory including instructions executable by the processor can activate a plurality of light sources in an alternating pattern at an illumination frequency and acquire image data depicting light reflected from an object at a timing corresponding to the alternating pattern at the illumination frequency. In response to variations in the light impinging upon the object from the alternating pattern, an object contour can be determined based on estimating one or more object surface normal based on photometric stereo. One or more of object identity and object depth can be determined based on combining the object contour with the image data.
[0005] US10388132B2 discloses systems and methods for surveillance-assisted patrol. One system includes an image capture device associated with a location, a patrol object, and a server communicatively coupled to the image capture device and the patrol object. The server includes an electronic processor configured to receive geolocation data for the patrol object. The electronic processor determines, based on the data, whether the patrol object is within a predetermined distance from the location, and, in response to determining that the patrol object is within the predetermined distance, captures a reference image of the location via the image capture device. The electronic processor accesses a second image corresponding to the location, captured at a different time than the reference image. The electronic processor compares the reference image to the second image to determine a difference. The electronic processor, in response to determining the difference, transmits, via the transceiver, a patrol alert to an electronic device.
[0006] Conventionally, many devices used in patrolling and security operations are limited to basic lighting functions without the ability to adapt to environmental conditions, detect nearby objects, or assist in emergency response. Additionally, these existing devices often lack integration with sensory feedback, situational awareness, or threat identification required for modern safety operations.
[0007] In order to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks, there exists a need in the art to develop a patrolling torch that requires to be capable of enhancing user awareness, improving safety during field operations, providing responsive alerts, supporting environmental assessment, and enabling effective navigation and threat identification in diverse operational scenarios.

[0020] As used herein, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and “the” designate both the singular and the plural, unless expressly stated to designate the singular only.
[0021] The present invention relates to a safety patrolling torch that is capable of enhancing personal security, improving situational awareness, supporting emergency response, enabling area assessment, assisting in navigation, and facilitating efficient patrolling operations across varied environmental and operational conditions.
[0022] Referring to Figure 1, an isometric view of a safety patrolling torch is illustrated, comprising a tubular body 101 constructed with a head portion 102 at a front end, a reflection arrangement 103 integrated within the head portion 102 comprises of a plurality of reflective plates 103a mounted on motorized hinge joints 103b, a light source 104 provided at junction of the body 101 and the head portion 102, a signaling module 105 comprising a LED (Light Emitting Diode) light 105a and a speaker 105b integrated with the body 101, a rotatable high-resolution camera 106 mounted on the body 101, a display unit 107 provided with the body 101, a microphone 108 integrated on the body 101, a handle 109 via a ball-and-socket joint 110 installed on the body 101, a hook 111 is mounted on a rear portion of the body 101, a haptic feedback unit 112 is housed within the body 101, a push button 113 integrated on the body 101.
[0023] The patrolling torch disclosed herein comprises of a tubular body 101 constructed with a head portion 102 at a front end enclosed by protective glass. They are designed to provide ergonomic handling, optimal balance, and durability during extended use. Internally, the body 101 accommodates internal compartments for organized housing of internal components. The head portion 102 seamlessly joined to the body 101 and designed to focus output functions effectively. Both sections are fabricated using high-impact polycarbonate or anodized aluminium alloy, used so offering weather resistance, shock absorption, and corrosion resistance, making torch suitable for rugged outdoor patrolling and security operations.
[0024] For initiating functionality of the patrolling torch, the user manually presses a push button 113 installed on the body 101. The push button 113 serves as the primary means for turning the patrolling torch on and off. The push button 113 is typically made from polycarbonate. When push button 113 is pressed to switch on the patrolling torch it allows current to flow. This sends a signal to a microcontroller, instructing it to activate the patrolling torch. The microcontroller then powers up the patrolling torch, enabling them to function. The microcontroller is integrated with an internal database configured to continuously record sensor readings, location data, and detected events during patrolling, the data is time stamped and synchronized with remote cloud servers or command centers for analysis.
[0025] An ambient light sensor integrated on the body 101 to continuously monitor surrounding light intensity and generate corresponding electrical signals. These signals are sent to the microcontroller, which processes the data in real-time to assess environmental lighting conditions. Based on this analysis, the microcontroller dynamically adjusts internal settings such as beam direction, spread, and intensity to ensure optimal visibility. The ambient light sensors, typically based on photodiodes which respond to light variations, enabling the microcontroller to execute adaptive lighting responses during patrol operations.
[0026] Based on real-time environmental data detected by the ambient light sensors and a network of distance, the microcontroller activates a reflection arrangement 103 integrated within the head portion 102 to control light beam direction angle, and spread. The reflection arrangement 103 comprises of a plurality of reflective plates 103a mounted on motorized hinge joints 103b arranged along an inner periphery around a light source 104, the plates 103a dynamically adjust angles to control light beam direction, angle, and spread. The reflective plates 103a are typically made of polished aluminum or silver-coated polycarbonate. These materials offer high reflectivity, lightweight properties, and durability, ensuring efficient light redirection and sustained performance in rugged conditions.
[0027] The motorized hinge joints 103b consist of a compact electric motor connected to a gear means that precisely controls the angular movement of the reflective plates 103a. When the microcontroller sends signals based on environmental data, the motor activates and drives the hinge joints 103b to adjust the plate's orientation. The hinge joints 103b include encoders to monitor the exact angle of rotation, ensuring accurate alignment. The hinge joints 103b operate smoothly within the torch’s confined structure, allowing real-time adjustment of light beam direction with minimal power consumption.
[0028] An object classification module integrated with the body 101 to detect presence and movement of objects in vicinity of the body 101. The object classification module receives input from an imaging sensor positioned to monitor the surrounding area. This imaging sensor captures visual data representing nearby objects. The microcontroller analyses characteristics such as contours, motion patterns, and relative positioning based on the database from the visual input to identify. The onboard microcontroller further processes data from the object classification module in real-time to classify detected objects like humans, animals, or static elements.
[0029] Based on the classification, the microcontroller triggers activation of the light source 104 with a corresponding colour indicative of the identified object type. The light source 104 provided at junction of the body 101 and the head portion 102 including an RGB (Red, Green, Blue) LED (Light Emitting Diode) array to emit a predefined colour of light indicative of the classified object. For instance, a human detection by the microcontroller triggers emission of white or blue light, an animal detection triggers emission of green light, and detection of an undefined or suspicious object triggers emission of red light.
[0030] The RGB LED array comprises multiple individual red, green, and blue light-emitting diodes arranged together. Each diode emits light at a specific wavelength when an electric current passes through its semiconductor material. The microcontroller regulates current flow to each color channel, adjusting brightness levels to produce a desired composite color. By varying the intensity of each diode, the array emits distinct colors corresponding to classification outputs. The RGB configuration enables high visibility, energy efficiency, and precise signaling during patrol activities.
[0031] To detect sudden impacts or falls, an accelerometer and gyroscope configured with the body 101. The gyroscope includes a vibrating structure or a MEMS-based sensor that detects angular velocity through changes in motion along internal axes. When the torch rotates, the Coriolis effect causes a measurable shift in the vibration pattern of the internal mass. This shift generates electrical signals corresponding to the rate and direction of rotation. These signals are sent to the microcontroller, which interprets the torch’s orientation or rotational movement, aiding in stability detection, directional adjustments, or coordination with other internal components during patrolling.
[0032] The accelerometer contains microscopic structures suspended within a substrate that shift when the torch experiences movement or sudden impact. These internal shifts alter the capacitance or resistance between tiny sensing elements along different axes (typically X, Y, and Z). These changes are converted into electrical signals that indicate the direction and magnitude of motion. The microcontroller receives these signals and interprets them to detect falls, jerks, or abnormal handling.
[0033] Based on this data, the microcontroller activates a signaling module 105 comprising an LED light 105a integrated with the body 101 to emit a flashing SOS pattern alert, and a speaker 105b integrated with the body 101 for producing a high-decibel audible alarm alert. When a triggering condition such as a fall, impact, or classified threat is detected, the microcontroller sends timed electrical pulses to the LED light 105a. These pulses follow a predefined pattern corresponding to the international SOS signal (three short, three long, three short flashes). The timing and intensity of each flash are precisely managed to ensure clear visibility. The flashing pattern continues until the triggering event is resolved or manually reset by the user.
[0034] Simultaneously, the speaker 105b integrated within the body 101 receives electrical signals from the microcontroller, which correspond to alert tones. Internally, the speaker 105b consists of a diaphragm and a voice coil positioned near a magnetic field. When current flows through the coil, it creates magnetic interactions that move the diaphragm back and forth, generating sound waves. The resulting audio output is a high-decibel alert tone designed to attract attention in emergencies or notify the user about classified threats or motion-related incidents.
[0035] A rotatable high-resolution camera 106 mounted on the body 101 to capture and analyze images in real-time against user-input data to identify relevant objects and notify the user via a display unit 107 provided with the body 101. The camera 106 is mounted on a pivot assembly that allows angular movement across horizontal and vertical axes. Internally, the camera 106 contains a lens that focuses incoming light onto a CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) image sensor. The camera 106 is integrated with a facial recognition protocol to detect suspicious behavior and match faces against a criminal database. The sensor converts the optical input into digital signals representing visual data. These signals are processed by the microcontroller to extract relevant object features, monitor motion, or match visual patterns against pre-stored data from the database. The rotation is driven by miniature motors guided by the microcontroller, allowing dynamic adjustment of the viewing angle to capture a broad surveillance range during patrol.
[0036] Informational and processed visual data received by the microcontroller to activate the display unit 107 integrated into the body 101. Internally, the display unit 107 consists of a backlit liquid crystal panel composed of addressable pixels. Each pixel responds to electrical signals by adjusting color and brightness, forming clear, high-resolution images and alerts. The display presents real-time camera 106 feeds, classification results, and user notifications in a readable format. The microcontroller continuously refreshes the display content based on sensor inputs and the camera 106 data, ensuring timely delivery of critical information to the user during field operations.
[0037] A built-in microphone 108 installed on the body 101 to detect predefined audio pattern associated with emergency situations, triggering alerts to notify the user about detected emergency situation. The microphone 108 includes a diaphragm placed over an internal backplate, forming a capacitive sensor. When sound waves from the environment strike the diaphragm, it vibrates, causing changes in the distance between the diaphragm and backplate. These variations alter the capacitance, which is converted into corresponding electrical signals. The microcontroller receives these signals and analyses their frequency and amplitude patterns to detect predefined audio cues, such as distress calls or specific emergency sounds. Upon recognition, the microcontroller initiates appropriate responses, such as flashing alerts or transmitting data to notify the user of the detected emergency situation.
[0038] A communication module is configured with the microcontroller to wirelessly connect with a paired computing unit, the microcontroller transmits real-time location data from the GPS unit to the computing unit for remote alert delivery to emergency contacts or command centers. The communication module includes a wireless transceiver embedded within the body 101, configured to exchange data between the torch and a paired computing unit. It operates using radio frequency signals and includes an antenna and control circuitry to manage transmission and reception. The GPS unit receives satellite signals through its internal antenna, decoding time-stamped data packets to calculate real-time geographic coordinates. Both components relay their outputs to the microcontroller, which synchronizes location data with stored events and transmits alerts, status updates, and positional information to remote receivers, enabling external monitoring and emergency communication during patrolling operations.
[0039] Further, the body 101 is installed with a handle 109 via a ball-and- socket joint 110 for adjustable orientation. The handle 109 is constructed from reinforced thermoplastic or rubber-coated aluminum to ensure a secure grip, impact resistance and ergonomic handling. The ball-and- socket joint 110 consists of a spherical ball end connected to the handle 109, housed within a concave socket integrated into the body 101. This structure permits rotational movement along multiple axes. The internal surface of the socket includes a friction lining or tensioning element that maintains the handle's position once adjusted, preventing unintentional shifts during use. The micro-adjustability allows the user to orient the torch precisely, while the robust joint construction ensures stability, durability, and smooth operation throughout extended handling in variable patrolling conditions.
[0040] A hook 111 is mounted on a rear portion of the body 101 for hands-free carrying by hanging on a bad or a fixed support. The hook 111 firmly, allow the torch to hand from belts, bags, or fixed supports. The hook 111 typically constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel or fiber-reinforced polymer.
[0041] A ground penetrating radar (GPR) and a millimeter-wave radar sensor is integrated with the body 101 to detect buried energetic materials and triggers visual or audio alerts upon threat detection. The GPR emits high-frequency electromagnetic pulses into the ground through a transmitting antenna. When these pulses encounter buried objects or material boundaries, they reflect back to a receiving antenna. The time delay and strength of the returned signals are converted into electrical data representing subsurface features. This data is processed by the microcontroller to identify anomalies, such as concealed items or disturbances. The GPR operates effectively across varied terrains, enhancing threat detection capability during patrol and search activities.
[0042] While, the millimeter-wave radar sensor emits electromagnetic waves in the millimeter frequency range through an integrated antenna. These waves travel through the air and reflect off nearby objects or materials. The sensor captures the reflected signals and measures parameters such as distance, speed, and material properties based on changes in frequency and time delay. This information is forwarded to the microcontroller, which interprets the data to identify concealed threats, moving objects, or surface anomalies, supporting enhanced situational awareness during patrol operations, even in low-visibility conditions. Based on the analyzed data of combined GPR and millimeter-wave radar, the microcontroller detects concealed threats and alert the user through via the display unit 107, the speaker 105b, or a haptic feedback unit 112 housed within the body 101.
[0043] The haptic feedback unit 112 is housed within the body 101 and operatively connected to the microcontroller which provide tactile feedback to the user in the form of varying vibration patterns and intensities in response to predetermined events including, but not limited to alerts from threat detection, navigation instructions, or user notification. The haptic feedback unit 112 includes a compact vibration motor embedded within the body 101. When the microcontroller detects specific events, such as classified threats or navigation cues, it activates the motor by supplying electrical current. The motor generates vibrations of varying intensity and duration, creating tactile signals felt by the user. These vibration patterns are predefined for different scenarios, enabling silent, intuitive communication. The motor is mounted on a dampened base to ensure consistent performance without affecting overall handling of the patrolling torch.
[0044] Additionally, an integrated UV (Ultraviolet) and thermal scanner configured with the body 101 to reveal hidden evidence and detect residual heat signatures for enhanced patrolling and investigation. The UV scanner emits ultraviolet light onto surrounding surfaces and detects reflected wavelengths using a UV-sensitive sensor. Certain substances fluoresce under UV exposure, allowing hidden evidence like residues or markings to become visible. The thermal scanner includes an infrared sensor that captures heat radiation emitted by objects or surfaces. This sensor converts infrared energy into electrical signals, forming a thermal map that highlights temperature differences. Both outputs are processed by the microcontroller to assist in detecting concealed items or recent activity during patrolling.
[0045] An e-nose is integrated within the body 101 for detecting foul odors indicative of mortal remains. The e-nose contains an array of chemical gas sensors, each sensitive to specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs). When air enters the sensor chamber, the VOCs interact with the sensing elements, causing measurable changes in electrical properties such as resistance or capacitance. These changes are converted into electrical signals and sent to the microcontroller. The microcontroller compares the signal patterns to stored reference profiles to identify odors indicative of decomposing organic material or other hazardous substances. Based on the match, the microcontroller provides navigation guidance based on detected odors.
[0046] The present invention works best in the following manner, where the tubular body 101 as disclosed in the invention is grasped by the user via the handle 109 fitted through the ball-and- socket joint 110 to allow comfortable multi-directional adjustment during patrolling. The ambient light sensors integrated on the body 101 detect external lighting conditions and send corresponding signals to the microcontroller, which dynamically adjusts the direction and intensity of the light beam by actuating the reflective plates 103a arranged around the light source 104 within the head portion 102. The microcontroller also controls the RGB LED array provided at the junction of the head and body 101 to emit a specific colour of light based on data received from the object classification module. The object classification module continuously receives real-time imaging input from the integrated imaging sensor, and the microcontroller processes the input to detect and classify surrounding objects. In case of any threat classification, the microcontroller actuates the signaling module 105 wherein the LED light 105a emits a flashing SOS pattern and the speaker 105b produces a loud alarm to alert surrounding individuals. Simultaneously, the haptic feedback unit 112 integrated within the body 101 delivers vibration patterns to notify the user silently. The microphone 108 detects emergency audio patterns from the environment and the microcontroller, upon recognition, activates the required alerts. The rotatable high-resolution camera 106 mounted on the body 101 captures visuals and compares them with pre-fed data to detect faces or suspicious behaviour. All detection results are displayed in real-time on the display unit 107 provided with the body 101, which renders the output using the incoming signals from the microcontroller. During operation, the integrated accelerometer and gyroscope monitor orientation and sudden movements to detect falls or impacts, and the microcontroller responds by initiating emergency signaling. The GPS unit sends real-time location data to the communication module, which transmits it wirelessly to external sources for remote monitoring. In advanced patrolling, the ground-penetrating radar and millimetre-wave radar sensor detect concealed or buried threats beneath the surface, and the microcontroller interprets both data sets to issue timely alerts. The UV and thermal scanner reveal hidden markings and residual heat signatures, enhancing area assessment. In case of suspected decomposition, the e-nose detects odor profiles matching mortal remains, and the microcontroller directs the user accordingly through visual and haptic cues.
