MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641021695 A) filed by Saveetha Institute Of Medical And Technical Sciences, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, on Feb. 24, for 'sensor-integrated biofeedback bolster for real-time muscle activation monitoring and rehabilitation.'
Inventor(s) include Sowmiya E Ab; Kotteesw Aran K; and Dr. Deepak Nallaswamy Veeraiya.
The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention discloses a sensor-integrated biofeedback bolster designed to detect and monitor muscle activation during therapeutic exercises and rehabilitation procedures. The bolster incorporates embedded sensors including pressure sensors, electromyography (EMG) sensors, and inertial measurement units (IMUs) to capture muscle engagement, load distribution, and movement dynamics. Sensor data is processed in real time by an embedded microcontroller and analyzed through a biofeedback system that provides visual, auditory, or haptic cues to guide proper muscle activation. The system enhances rehabilitation accuracy, prevents compensatory movements, and enables objective monitoring of neuromuscular performance, thereby improving therapeutic outcomes and reducing injury risk."
