MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541112484 A) filed by Prithvi Siva Sankar Shunmuga Sundaram, Tuticorin, Tamil Nadu, on Nov. 17, 2025, for 'multilingual ai-powered wearable glove for real-time sign language translation anywhere.'

Inventor(s) include Prithvi Siva Sankar Shunmuga Sundaram.

The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Multilingual AI-Powered Wearable Glove for Real-Time Sign Language Translation Anywhere This invention describes an AI-powered wearable glove system that performs real-time sign language translation into text and multilingual audio in environments with low visibility and no connectivity. Equipped with flex sensors, inertial measurement units (IMUs), electromyography (EMG) sensors, and ambient IR/light sensors, the glove captures nuanced hand gestures and muscle movements. These signals are processed by an onboard edge AI system using a hybrid sequence learning model. The device produces text and audio outputs in languages like Hindi, English, Spanish, and Vietnamese without requiring cloud access or camera input. A use-case example includes a deaf rescue worker in a collapsed tunnel communicating with international team members using sign language, which the glove translates into multilingual speech. This invention offers resilient, real-time communication for the deaf community and enhances situational response in harsh environments such as disaster zones, mines, or military operations."
