Inventor(s) include Vidya Balaji Patil; Dr. Laxmi Bhagwat; Dr. Pranali Kosamkar; Mr. Harsh Halwai; and Mr. Parth Patel.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "This invention relates to a method for operating a touchless mouse using finger gesture recognition to enhance user interaction and improve accessibility. The system comprises a wearable finger band equipped with a high-resolution motion sensor that captures hand movements and gestures in three-dimensional space, translating them into cursor movements and commands on a digital interface. An AI-driven recognition algorithm processes sensor data, generating control commands for various digital systems, including IoT devices and medical equipment. This dynamic and adaptive algorithm leverages machine learning to tailor the user experience based on individual interaction patterns. Designed ergonomically for comfort, the finger band facilitates intuitive interaction, particularly benefiting individuals with mobility impairments. By eliminating the need for physical contact with traditional input devices, this invention promotes a more inclusive and user-friendly digital experience across diverse environments, from home to professional settings, thereby enhancing overall accessibility in technology."
