MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641050465 A) filed by Bvrit Hyderabad College Of Engineering For Women, Hyderabad, Telangana, on April 21, for 'Thought2move : A Brain-Controlled Navigation System.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Sanivarapu Prasanth Vaidya; Ms. Mohammed Afreen; Ms. Bezawada Sri Varsha; and Ms. Navuduri Lakshmi Neeharika.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) technology enables direct communication between the human brain and external devices without the need for physical interaction. This project presents a brain-controlled mobility system that utilizes Electroencephalography (EEG) signals to control a mobility prototype. EEG signals are captured using electrodes placed on the user's scalp and are amplified using a BioAmp module to ensure effective signal processing.The amplified signals are processed using an ESP32-C6 microcontroller, where noise is reduced and meaningful patterns are identified. Based on these patterns, control commands such as forward movement, stopping, and directional changes are generated and transmitted wirelessly to the mobility prototype. The system demonstrates real-time response and effective mapping of brain signals to physical actions.This project provides a hands-free and user-friendly solution, especially beneficial for individuals with physical disabilities. It highlights the potential of BCI technology in developing assistive systems and improving human-machine interaction. Future enhancements may include improving signal accuracy and integrating advanced algorithms for better performance."
