MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611106970 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 05, 2026, for Intelligent Adaptive Exoskeleton System For Proactive Safety And Ergonomic Assistance Of Construction Workers.
Inventor includes Bebesh Tripathy.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: An intelligent adaptive exoskeleton system for construction workers is disclosed. The system comprises a wearable exoskeleton having actuated joints, an on-board multi-modal sensor suite, an environmental sensing network, and a machine-learning-based processing and control unit. Kinematic, physiological, force, and pressure sensors monitor worker movement, posture, balance, muscle activity, fatigue, and physiological condition, while LiDAR, cameras, UWB devices, and smart material tags provide environmental, equipment, and load information. The system fuses the data to predict fall, collision, overexertion, fatigue, and ergonomic risks. Based on predicted risks, the system automatically modifies actuator assistance and/or provides directional haptic, audio, or visual feedback. Load information from smart material tags may be used to pre-configure lifting assistance. The system provides a continuous Sense-Analyze-Predict-Act feedback loop for proactive safety, ergonomic assistance, and adaptive intervention in dynamic construction environments.
