MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611050679 A) filed by Swami Vivekanand Subharti University, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, on April 21, for 'a method, wearable device, and system for smart adaptive scapular retraining using biofeedback, posture sensors, and dynamic resistance control.'
Inventor(s) include Uchit Kumar; and Dr Akansha Gurjar.
The application for the patent was published on May 29, under issue no. 22/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a smart adaptive scapular retraining belt with biofeedback and dynamic resistance control for monitoring and correcting shoulder posture in real time. The system comprises a wearable belt structure configured to be worn across the shoulders and upper back, integrated with a plurality of posture sensing elements including inertial sensors, stretch sensors, and pressure sensors configured to capture biomechanical posture parameters such as scapular orientation, shoulder displacement, thoracic alignment, and strap tension distribution. A processor in conjunction with a machine learning-based posture analysis unit processes the acquired signals to classify posture states including neutral alignment, rounded shoulders, and scapular winging. Upon detection of posture deviation, an adaptive resistance control module dynamically regulates tension in elastic shoulder straps, while a biofeedback alert unit generates haptic alerts to prompt corrective action."
