MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641044282 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on April 7, for 'adaptive multi-sensory neuro-rehabilitation cube for children with cerebral palsy.'
Inventor(s) include Kavitha. S; Vanithajayaraj; and Dr. 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: "Cerebral palsy is a non-progressive neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairments in movement, pl)Sture, sensory processing, and functional partcipation. Effective pediatric neuro-rehabilitation requires early, intensive, and engaging interventions that promote ncuro plasticity while addressing mulrisystcm delicils. The adaptive Multi-Sensory Neuro-Rehabilitation Cube is an innovative therapeutic device designed to provide integrated motor, sensory, and cognitive stimulation for children with cerebral palsy through structured play-based activities.The cube incorporates multiple interactive surfaces that deliver tactile, proprioceptive, visual, and auditory inputs, enabling task-oriented training in a child-friendly format. Each surface is adaptable to the child's age, severity, and functional leveL allowing graded progression of therapeutic challenges. The design supports interventions aimed at improving postural control, balance reactions, upper limb function, handeye coordination, bilateral integration, and sensory modulation. Cognitive engagement is promoted through problem-solving tasks. color and shape recognition, sequcncmg activities, and cause-effect interactions embedded within the cubc.By encouraging active participation and repetitive, goal-directed movements, the cube facilitates motor learning and enhances cortical recogani7ation. The adaptive nature of the device allows therapists to customize intervention parameters such as resistance. texture, task complexity, anJ sensory feedback. The cube can be used across various clinical settings, including early intervention centers. pediatric neurorehabitation units, special schools, and home-based therapy programs. The Adaptive Multi-Sensory Neuro-Rehabilitation Cube represents a holistic and child-centered approach to cerebral palsy rehabilitation, combining therapeutic effectiveness with play motivation. It offers a practical, scalable, and engaging tool to enhance functional outcomes and participation in children with cerebral palsy through integrated neuro-rehabilitation strategic."
