MUMBAI, India, Aug. 12 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611069530 A) filed by Chandigarh University on June 03, 2026, for Smart Digital Tape Measure With Surface Projection And Voice-Synchronized Data Storage.
Inventors include Girish Jindal; and Krishan Kant Sharma.
The application for the patent was published on August 07, 2026, under issue no. 32/2026.
Abstract: The present invention discloses an intelligent digital tape measuring apparatus integrated with a surface projection system, selectively energized anchoring mechanism, and synchronized voice-linked data storage platform for improving measurement accuracy and automated documentation. The apparatus comprises a retractable measuring tape operatively connected to an optical rotary encoder for generating real-time digital measurement data. A MEMS-based projection module projects the measured value directly onto a target surface, thereby enabling a heads-up workflow and reducing parallax and reading errors. The invention further includes a remotely controllable anchoring mechanism configured to stabilize the distal end of the tape on metallic and non-metallic surfaces for efficient solitary operation. A synchronized acoustic metadata system captures voice annotations corresponding to measured dimensions and encapsulates the dimensional data, audio input, and timestamps into unified digital records. The apparatus further supports wireless transmission to external devices for secure storage, retrieval, and construction-related documentation applications.
