MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611093596 A) filed by Bhavuk Chawla on August 02, 2026, for Autonomous Apparatus And Method For Batch Processing, Physical Navigation And Removable Marking Of Printed Publications.

Inventor includes Bhavuk Chawla.

The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.

Abstract: An autonomous apparatus for batch preparation of physical printed publications comprises a stationary support defining addressable tray positions that retain the publications, a rail-mounted service mechanism, a local page-access assembly, an imaging assembly, a page-state module and a removable-marker transfer assembly. The service mechanism travels along a rail to a selected tray position and opens the publication in situ. Page-associated data is acquired while maintaining an association among a tray-position identifier, a publication identifier, a sheet identifier and an exposed page surface. A selection module identifies a selected content region, and a marker-location module maps the region to an accessible marker attachment position on the corresponding sheet. A controller exposes the sheet, applies a removable marker, verifies placement and restores the publication to its assigned tray position while preserving publication order. These operations repeat for a plurality of publications without routine user input between initiation and completion of a batch.
