MUMBAI, India, Nov. 28 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202531107806 A) filed by Jis College Of Engineering, Kalyani, West Bengal, on Nov. 6, for 'gesture maths.'

Inventor(s) include Mr. Chirag Nahata; Ms. Snigdha Ghosh; Ms. Srijita Saha; Mrs. Saswati Rakshit; Dr. Sayan Chakraborty; Mr. Subhadip Goswami; and Dr. Sitanath Biswas.

The application for the patent was published on Nov. 28, under issue no. 48/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention provides a smart, touchless system for solving mathematical problems using hand gestures on a whiteboard with an embedded camera. Hand movements are captured and processed using advanced computer vision and machine learning algorithms to recognize digits, operators, functions, and control commands. Recognized gestures are converted into formal mathematical expressions, which are then solved by a Python-based symbolic computation engine capable of handling arithmetic operations, algebraic equations, symbolic integration and differentiation, matrix operations, and multi-step word problems. Real-time visual and optional auditory feedback ensures accurate interaction, while special gestures allow undo, redo, and correction actions. The system is designed for classrooms, laboratories, and accessible learning environments, promoting interactive, inclusive, and efficient mathematical education."
