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: "An augmented reality (AR) reading assistance system, ClearReadAR, is disclosed for improving reading fluency and comprehension for individuals with dyslexia. The system comprises a wearable AR display with an integrated camera, an onboard processing unit, and an inertial measurement unit (IMU). It captures printed or digital text in real time, performs optical character recognition (OCR), and reformats the text according to personalized dyslexia-friendly parameters such as specialized fonts, increased spacing, and color-coded character differentiation. Using SLAM and IMU tracking, the reformatted text is spatially anchored as an overlay directly over the original source in the user's field of view. The system includes adaptive AI to refine formatting based on reading performance and supports synchronized bone-conduction audio output, multilingual processing, and offline operation. All processing is preferably performed locally to ensure user privacy and low-latency performance."
