MUMBAI, India, July 7 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641077209 A) filed by Cvr College Of Engineering on June 23, 2026, for Wearable Sensor-Based School Bag System For Early Detection Of Musculoskeletal Stress In Children.

Inventors include Kandle Navaneetha; and E Nitya.

The application for the patent was published on July 03, 2026, under issue no. 27/2026.

Abstract: The invention relates to a wearable sensor - based school bag system for the early detection and prevention of musculoskeletal stress in school-going children. The given system combines load sensors, posture monitoring sensor, inertial measurement unit, and activity monitoring modules to continuously monitor the backpack weight, carrying the posture, gait patterns, and bag carrying duration. Sensor data will be processed through a bedded controller and the data collected is analysed using artificial intelligence algorithms to identify potential risks associated with excessive load and improper carrying habits. The given system generates tailored musculoskeletal stress assessment, risk score, and corrective recommendations based on the user-specific physiological characteristics. A wireless communication module implements real-time transmission of student health information and alerts to mobile devices. The invention encourages ergonomic carrying practices, improve the student well-being, and assists in preventing the long-term musculoskeletal disorder with continuous monitoring and early intervention.
