Canadian Patent Granted on Feb 2022.

Titled ” ANALYSIS OF IOT BASED WEATHER MONITORING USING FUZZY LOGIC” Anand Nayyar, Christo Ananth, Bandana Mahapatra.

The highlights of the patents

The reason that every family member will be employed and busy, the health monitoring of elderly people and patients has become very crucial. In the proposed methodology caretakers can get information on the temperature and the pulse rate of the people being monitored at home on a real-time basis. Users can also get information about the air quality in the home so that the system can generate an alarm if any hazardous gas is detected. Here further a fuzzy logic approach for real-time monitoring and analysis of the data collected from the temperature sensor, Heartbeat sensor, and Gas sensor has been implemented. Based on the trained data and the collected data from the sensors outliers will be detected. The collected data sent to the cloud can be downloaded using the Thing speak platform.

Indian Design Patent Granted Dated Nov 2021.

Titled “Nasophatvngeal Swab Sampling Robot” with Patent Number: 347909-001. Authored By: Dr. Anand Nayyar, Dr. Rudra Rameshwar, Dr. Bandana Mahapatra, Mr. Amit Kishor Mr. Pijush Kanti Dutta Pramanik Prof. Ramesh Chandra Panda,

The highlights of the patents are 

A Novel Wi-Fi Based Low-cost Nasopharyngeal Swab Sampling Robot Keeping views of infection for surgeons during the face-to-face COVID-19 swab sampling diagnosis we designed a novel low-cost nasopharyngeal swab sampling robot. This innovation is a one-step-ahead utility using a computer vision system helpful for easy positioning of patients. Medical staffs carrying out the task of collecting NP specimens are in close contact with the suspected patient, thereby posing a high risk of cross-infection. We propose a low-cost miniature robot that can be easily assembled and remotely controlled. The system includes an active end-effector, a passive positioning arm, and a detachable swab gripper within targeted force-sensing capability Australian Patent by Prof Kumarsanjay Bhorekar, Dr. Ruby Jain, and Dr. Bandana Mahapatra:

Patent number: 2021102598 Approved dated: June 2021

Title: A WEARABLE ELECTRO ACUPUNCTURE DEVICE FOR COVID TREATMENT AND ITS METHOD THEREOF 

The present disclosure seeks a method and a wearable electro-acupuncture device to apply pressure on three main pressure points in the patient’s hand and forearm to increase oxygen percentage in the blood and to increase the immunity of the patient in order to recover quickly from COVID19.

In an embodiment, an electroacupuncture device for COVID treatment is disclosed. The device includes a glove body worn on the hand of a wearer, wherein the glove body is having a dorsal side and a palm side. The device further includes an air pump configured to the dorsal side of the glove body for inflating the glove body with air. The device further includes at least three metallic cones positioned near three acupuncture points to apply pressure on the acupuncture points upon inflating the glove body, thus relieving the person of COVID symptoms. The device further includes a vibrator embodied in the glove body for massaging on the hand of the wearer to relieve COVID symptoms.

Dr. Bandana Mahapatra registered a Patent titled, A Wireless Networking of Medical Equipments on Mobile Application for Paperless Clinic. Approved Dated: July 2021.

Description: The present invention relates to the wireless networking of medical equipment on mobile applications for a paperless clinic. An interface circuit coupled to each medical device communicates with one of the plurality of relay modules via a wireless relay network. The relay modules communicate with the remote monitoring device over an internet-accessible wireless communication network. Each relay module includes a receiver coupled to the wireless relay network first transmitter coupled to the wireless relay network second transmitter coupled to the internet-accessible wireless communications network and controller. The controller determines the status of the internet-accessible wireless communications network. When the status indicates that the internet-accessible wireless communications network is accessible to the wireless relay module the second transmitter is selected for transmitting medical device data. The following model of invention is shown below.
