MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511113772 A) filed by Chandigarh University, Mohali, Punjab, on Nov. 19, 2025, for 'criss-cross electromagnetic touch emulator with voice-driven automation for blind interaction.'
Inventor(s) include Pankaj Sharma.
The application for the patent was published on Jan. 9, under issue no. 02/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure relates to a remote touch interface management system designed to enable voice-controlled interaction with touchscreen devices, particularly for visually impaired users. The system includes a criss-cross grid of electromagnetic pop-in/pop-out actuators forming a bidirectional manipulator array, each actuator terminating in a touch manipulation sensor capable of emulating human touch on a screen surface. A voice recognition module receives and interprets user voice commands, while a control processor translates these commands into corresponding physical gestures such as taps, swipes, or scrolls via the actuator array. A voice output module provides real-time auditory feedback describing the result of each executed operation, thereby creating an accessible, hands-free, and tactilely responsive interface for remote touchscreen control and enhanced user accessibility."
