MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611106851 A) filed by Vivekananda Global University on September 04, 2026, for Mri (magnetic Resonance Imaging) Safe Wearable Device For Anxiety Monitoring And Calming.
Inventors include Rukamanee; Mohit Sharma; and Yogita Janghu.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: A MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) safe wearable device for anxiety monitoring and calming, comprising a wearable member 101 adapted to be worn on a wrist by a patient, at least two reflective photoplethysmography (PPG) sensor patches 102 to continuously measure heart rate and heart rate variability, a plurality of dry electrodermal activity contact electrodes 201 to continuously measure skin conductance indicative of arousal or stress, a three axis MEMS (micro electro mechanical systems) accelerometer 103 to track body motion and hand tremors, used for scoring anxiety levels and predicting movement errors during scans, a control unit collects data from the PPG sensor patches 102, electrodermal activity electrodes 201, and accelerometer 103 to calculate the patient’s anxiety level and trigger calming actions accordingly, and a calming unit to provide vibration cues and controlled scent release when high anxiety is detected for helping the patient to stay calm and reduce movement during MRI scans.
