MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641044152 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 7, for 'a wireless dual -sensor patch system for detecting and correcting & nbsp; spinal misalignment.'
Inventor(s) include Jeswitha Nandyala; Bharathir; and Deepak Nallaswamy Veeraiyan.
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 invention relates to a wireless dual-sensor patch system designed for monitoring and correcting spinal posture in real time. The device consists of two lightweight wearable patches placed over the cervical and lumbar regions, each containing an inertial sensor, microcontroller, and vibration feedback unit. The two patches communicate wirelessly to measure segment-to-segment spinal alignment rather than relying on a single-point posture reading. The system identifies abnormal neck or lower-back positions as well as compensatory movement patterns that commonly occur during prolonged sitting, standing, or physical activity. When misalignment beyond a preset threshold is detected, the device provides gentle vibratory feedback to prompt the user to return to a neutral posture. The invention aims to reduce strain-related discomfort, improve postural habits, and support preventive musculoskeletal health. The system is suitable for use in physiotherapy, workplace ergonomics, sports training, and daily postural management across various age groups."
