MUMBAI, India, June 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641059271 A) filed by Manipal Academy Of Higher Education on May 09, 2026, for Smart System And Method For Body Measurement And Posture Analysis Of A Subject.
Inventors include Tusar Kanti Mishra; Koushik Sau; Ananya Gupta; Laavanya Gupta; Jiya Thakker; Zayba Sajid; Harin Mohammed Manzoor; and Priyanka Hemant Lodha.
The application for the patent was published on June 12, 2026, under issue no. 24/2026.
Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system (100) includes n vision sensing unit (102), a sensor array (104), a processing unit (106) and a feedback interface (108). The vision sensing unit (102) is configured to capture one or more images or video streams of a subject positioned on a support surface. The sensor array (104) includes at least one of pressure sensors, load cells, capacitive sensors, or inertial sensors configured to generate posture-related data. The processing unit (106) is configured to detect anatomical keypoints of the subject from the captured images using a pose estimation unit. One or more body measurements is estimated using a calibrated reference by a body estimation unit. Posture evaluation outputs are generated based on predefined criteria or learned models using an output unit. The feedback interface (108) is configured to provide visual, haptic, or audio feedback to indicate posture status or deviations.
