MUMBAI, India, May 29 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611050604 A) filed by Pranveer Singh Institute Of Technology, Kanpur, Uttar Pradesh, on April 21, for 'viora-ai based robot.'

Inventor(s) include Ankit Jain; Dr. Puspraj Singh Chauhan; Dr. Imran Ullah Khan; Dr. Anita Shukla; Dr. Raghav Dwivedi; Keshav Kumar; Saloni Sharma; Rushan Mohiuddin; Mishthi Chaurasia; and Samraddhi Nigam.

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: "Viora is an interactive robotic system grounded on a central artificial intelligence engine that permits natural voice-driven communication in concert with motion and visual feedback. The central element of the system consists of a radio-controlled microcontroller-driven robotic platform combined with wireless modules for the control of programmed motion and the transmission of audio. Artificial intelligence processing is performed on an external computing device, which translates user voice input, process dialog, and presents real-time voice output. The resulting audio signal is wirelessly transmitted to the robot and delivered through an onboard speaker, allowing for spoken interaction. A visual feedback module offers additional interaction, such as greetings and interaction prompts. Bluetooth-based control is adopted, which enables the robot to move in a multidirectional manner, creating a truly dynamic human-robot interaction experience. This multi-disciplinary modular low-cost design allows an easy incorporation of new elements, making it perfect not only for enabling technology demonstrations but also for educational, assistive, and domestic applications. In this compact setting, speech, motion, and visual feedback of Viora are examples of an easily feasible approach toward the implementation of intelligent robotic assistants."
