MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202631123076 A) filed by Swami Vivekananda University on October 14, 2026, for Smartphone-Based Temporal Binocular Ocular Image-Acquisition And Alignment-Screening System And Method Thereof.
Inventors include Sourav Karmakar; Shrabani Rout; Md Taif; Promita Ghosh; Dipanwita Ghosh; P. N Sinha; Manas Chakraborty; Arup Saha; Shreyashi Mahata; Aratrika Chail; Sourashree Mondal; and Srimanti Sarkar.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The invention discloses a smartphone-based binocular ocular alignment screening apparatus (100) and an associated image-acquisition method. A display (120) presents central and displaced fixation targets while a front-facing camera (110) acquires time-associated images of both eyes. A quality assessment module (170) rejects unsuitable frames. Facial and ocular landmarks (180) support head-motion estimation (190), central-fixation calibration (210) and subject-specific normalization (200). A temporal analysis module (220) derives eye-specific responses, and a differential module (230) calculates interocular residuals while preserving a central-reference offset. A confidence module (240) evaluates frame support and measurement stability. When a target state is inadequate, an adaptive control module (250) repeats or extends the displayed target within an acquisition limit. An output module (260) aggregates accepted residuals and provides a non-diagnostic screening indication or an indeterminate acquisition indication, thereby coupling mobile image-quality feedback to physical stimulus presentation and binocular measurement.
