MUMBAI, India, Jan. 23 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641001543 A) filed by Binu K Mathew; Nakshatra S Prem; Amal Jith Sajith; Er. Agitha M. S; and Er. Dhanusha P. B, Changanacherry, Kerala, on Jan. 7, for 'an exg controlled assistive bionic arm.'
Inventor(s) include Nakshatra S Prem; Amal Jith Sajith; Er. Agitha M. S; and Er. Dhanusha P. B.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 23, under issue no. 04/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an ExG-controlled assistive bionic arm designed to provide enhanced mobility and functional independence to individuals with upper-limb loss, amputation, or muscular impairments. The system utilizes a BioAmp ExG Pill to non-invasively acquire muscle-generated bioelectrical signals such as EMG, which are then processed by a dedicated signal processing unit to accurately interpret user intent. These processed signals are converted into control commands for electromechanical actuators, enabling the bionic arm to perform essential upper-limb movements, including gripping, releasing, lifting, and joint articulation, with high precision and responsiveness. The design supports intuitive and natural human-machine interaction, allowing users to control the prosthetic arm in a manner closely resembling natural limb movement. The device is lightweight, low-power, and portable, allowing extended operation on a single charge. It is cost-effective and user-friendly, making it suitable for prosthetic, rehabilitation, and wearable robotic applications, thereby improving functional independence and quality of life for users."
