MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611001517 A) filed by Indian Institute Of Technology, Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, on Jan. 6, for 'wearable physiological monitoring device and method of monitoring physiological state of users.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Amit Prasad; Dr. Dinesh Singh; Dr. Arnav Bhavsar; Premchand; Satyanarayanan Nadar; Sagnik Ghosh; Dr. Ritu Kapur; and Dr. Varun Dutt.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A wearable physiological monitoring device (102) includes a motion sensor (122), cardiac sensor (120), skin-temperature sensor (124), electrodermal-activity sensor (118), wireless interface (408), memory (106), and processor (104). The processor (104) samples tri-axial motion, electrocardiogram, skin-temperature, and skin-conductance signals at predetermined rates and preprocesses them by filtering the electrocardiogram to obtain an R-R interval time series, separating phasic skin-conductance components, and detrending skin-temperature data to detect transient drops. From the R-R interval time series the processor computes heart-rate-variability metrics including a high-frequency to low-frequency power ratio, and extracts phasic peak and temperature-drop characteristics. The processor (104) combines these features within a common analysis window to compute a real-time stress reactivity index, compares the index to at least one user-specific threshold derived from baseline statistics, generates a feedback control signal when the threshold is satisfied, and transmits the signal to an external device to present an alert to the user (128)."
