MUMBAI, India, Jan. 9 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511115512 A) filed by Nims University, Jaipur, Rajasthan, on Nov. 22, 2025, for 'device and method for monitoring biomechanical activity in the oral cavity.'

Inventor(s) include Shweta Banerjee; Muskan Gupta; Swastik Krishna; Nitish Kumar; and Dr. Yashpal Yadav.

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: "A system (100) and method (200) for intraoral biomechanical sensing and calibration, designed to capture and normalize tongue motor control data with clinical precision. The system (100) comprises an intraoral device (101) formed from medical-grade silicone, embedded with a multi-modal sensor fusion array (102) including electromyography sensors (102a), piezoelectric sensors (102b), gyroscopes (102c), accelerometers (102d), pressure sensors (102e), and strain gauges (102f). A data acquisition unit (103) digitizes sensor outputs, which are processed by a module (104) incorporating memory (105), a calibration routine (106), a normalization algorithm (107), and a data fusion algorithm (108). The calibration routine (106) generates a user-specific profile from pre-programmed tongue movements, stored for subsequent normalization of real-time data. The fused biomechanical stream is displayed via a user interface (109), enabling accurate diagnosis, personalized therapy planning, and longitudinal monitoring. The method (200) ensures consistent, anatomically adjusted data for clinical and therapeutic applications."
