MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641049269 A) filed by Sona College Of Technology, Salem, Tamil Nadu, on April 17, for 'carbon fiber reinforced wearable glove system for tremor suppression.'
Inventor(s) include Mr. T. Karthikeyan; Dr. S. Prabakar; Dr. K. Manikandan; Mr. N. N. Baalakumar; Mr. V. Loganathan; and Mr. S. Mukesh.
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: "The present invention relates to a wearable tremor suppression glove system configured to assist individuals experiencing hand tremors associated with neurological conditions. The system comprises a glove body integrated with a carbon fiber reinforced structural framework providing lightweight support and high mechanical stiffness. At least one inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor is mounted on the glove to detect tremor-induced motion of the user's hand. A control module including a microcontroller processes the detected motion signals and generates control commands for one or more actuation modules positioned on the glove. The actuation modules generate vibration or counteracting mechanical responses to reduce tremor amplitude. The carbon fiber reinforcement framework enhances structural stability and improves transmission of actuator-generated vibrations across the glove structure. The wearable configuration enables continuous use during daily activities while providing improved tremor management through integrated sensing, control, and actuation mechanisms."
