MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641043501 A) filed by Ravichandran Doraiswamy; and Dr. I. Kannan, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 6, for 'a haptic feedback glove system and method for simulated anatomical interaction in virtual and augmented reality environments.'
Inventor(s) include Ravichandran Doraiswamy; and Dr. I. Kannan.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A haptic feedback glove system (100) and method for simulating anatomical interaction in virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) environments is disclosed. The system comprises a wearable flexible glove body embedded with vibrotactile motors (102) and pneumatic microactuators (103) across finger and palm zones; a motion tracking module comprising IMU sensors (105)(106); a haptic rendering engine (301) executing at 500 Hz; a software integration layer (401); and an anatomical tissue property database (403) storing biomechanical parameters including Young's Modulus, damping coefficient, surface texture frequency, and vascular pulsatility parameters for human tissue types. For vascular structures, pulsatile haptic waveforms calibrated to physiological arterial parameters simulate arterial pulsation during clinical palpation. A closed-loop feedback architecture using fingertip pressure sensors (104) dynamically adjusts actuator output responsive to user-applied force. Applications include anatomy education, clinical examination training, and surgical simulation."
