Inventor(s) include S. Brindha; A. Dhivan; U. Logesh; and A. Ijas Ahamed.
The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an intelligent grip pressure measurement system designed to provide accurate, real-time and digitally processed assessment of hand grip and pinch force for medical, rehabilitation, sports, and ergonomic applications. The system integrates a microcontroller-based processing unit with one or more pressure sensing elements capable of detecting variations in applied grip force. The sensing elements continuously monitor pressure changes when a user applies force, enabling precise measurement of grip intensity and force distribution. The pressure sensing elements generate analog signals proportional to the applied grip force, which are transmitted to the microcontroller for signal conditioning, CAlibration. and analog-to-digital conversion. The microcontroller processes the acquired data to compute meaningful grip pressure values while compensating for noise, sensor drift, and environmental variations. A regulated power supply unit ensures stable operating voltage and protects system components from power fluctuations, thereby enhancing reliability and long-term operational stability. The processed grip pressure data is presented in real time through a digital display interface, allowing users to instantly observe applied force values. Supporting components such as visual indicators and precision resistive elements facilitate system calibration, operational status monitoring, and functional verification. The system architecture enables repeatable measurements and consistent performance across multiple usage cycles. The compact and. portable design of the system allows for ease ofhandling and suitability for continuous or periodic measurement. The modular hardware configuration supports future expansion. including optional data storage, wireless communication, remote monitoring, and advanced analytical features. By combining precise pressure sensing, embedded signal processing, stable power regulation, and intuitive data visualization, the invention provides a reliable, cost-effective, and user-friendly solution for evaluating grip pressure . The grip pressure measurement system is applicable across a wide range of environments, including healthcare facilities, physiotherapy and rehabilitation centers, sports performance laboratories, ergonomic assessment setups, and research institutions. Through accurate force measurement and real-time feedback, the system contributes to improved assessment accuracy, enhanced user convenience, and effective hand strength evaluation."
