MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611051608 A) filed by Manav Rachna University, Faridabad, Haryana, on April 22, for 'neurological screening apparatus for multi-modal neurodegenerative risk assessment.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. K. Deepa; Mr. Harsh Aggarwal; Mr. Jayansh Arora; and Ms. Jhalak Dhingra.

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: "Disclosed is a neurological screening apparatus including a housing and a handheld fixture having fixed user-engagement regions for standardized interaction. The fixture carries capacitive touch pads for tapping assessment, force-sensitive resistor sensors for bilateral grip assessment, and an inertial measurement unit for tremor detection. Physiological sensing elements include a galvanic skin response sensor, a cardiovascular sensor, a temperature sensor, and a microphone. A first microcontroller performs deterministic acquisition of tapping, grip, tremor, and stress signals, while a second microcontroller performs physiological sensing, voice capture, data aggregation, and outward telemetry. A display, tri-color light emitting diode indicator, and buzzer provide local screening feedback based on aggregated multimodal signals."
