MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611113009 A) filed by Chandigarh University on September 21, 2026, for Wearable Hairband With Integrated Multi-Sensor Hair And Scalp Health Monitoring.
Inventors include Suhani Riya; and Krishan Kant Sharma.
The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.
Abstract: The present invention provides a lightweight, flexible wearable hairband configured for real-time monitoring of hair and scalp health using an integrated multi-sensor system. The hairband incorporates capacitive moisture sensors, dielectric porosity sensors, piezoelectric strain gauges, optical dandruff detection modules, scalp pH sensors, temperature sensors, sebum sensors, and optical hair thickness and density sensors positioned along an inner portion of the hairband. A low-power microcontroller acquires, conditions, filters, calibrates, and processes sensor signals and transmits processed data through Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to a mobile application. The application provides dandruff analysis, historical data storage, trend monitoring, and personalized hair-care recommendations. A thin-film solar charging array supplements a rechargeable lithium-ion battery through a power-management circuit. An elastomeric, rainproof housing provides ergonomic protection and enables comfortable, extended use with a mass below 50 grams during routine daily activities
