The application for the patent was published on Oct. 24, under issue no. 43/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Non-verbal adolescent autistic girls are focused. The assistive technologies are developed to help autistic individuals to improve their daily lives in all aspects like learning aids for their academics, and social communication tools to work in teams. The idea is raised about teaching and identifying hormonal changes at their adolescent age. These biological changes relate to their mental health. During puberty and the menstrual cycle period, an assistive device is required to identify the hormonal changes and make them prepare to pass the specific period with consciousness and awareness. The wearable device on the hand or neck senses the basal body temperature (BBT) and heart rate variability (HRV). It will indicate the puberty and menstrual cycle to the autistic person or caretaker."
