The application for the patent was published on Feb. 6, under issue no. 06/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention is a kid safe laser nail cutter device that cuts fingernails without hurting or disturbing children. It is designed to assist parents and protect children. The device consists of a round fibre ring, a built-in laser cutting section, an optical fibre channel, a spring system, and a safety system with sensors. The fibre ring is designed to wrap around an individual's finger and constrains the internal laser emitter, which emits a controlled laser beam through a cutting gap. The cutting fibre channel guides the beam to follow the nail shape, enabling precise and even trimming. A spring system along the gap causes it to stretch and remain taut, ensuring that it fits. The cutting section contains sensors to detect skin and deactivate the laser automatically to prevent accidental injury. In addition, the device contains led lights and a child-lock safety option to regulate how it is used. This invention makes nail cutting safe, clean, and efficient for children, minimizing risk and manual handling."
