Two aberrations or distortions are commonly found in the designs made by a conventional spectrometer lens. Hence there is a need to have an optical system in which both of these distortions are removed. This patent describes an improved spectrometer and a novel method to measure the spectral characteristics by using a single aberration-corrected lens or mirror system such that the light passes through or reflects component once.

Light external source illuminates the object to help form an object generated input signal. The light source can be a laser, or plurality of wavelengths of energy like LED, etc. A slit 104 is used to reflect or transmit the light by the object.

A dispersion element 108 is used by the lens system to direct the input signal. The dispersion element disperses the input signal to form dispersed signals which are directed to the detector 110.

A lens system 106 is used as an input signal diverging onto a lens system after passing through the slit. The lens system typically includes different lenses that are made up of different materials. The lens system forms an aberration-corrected lens system.

An aberration-corrected optical system 306 has a number of optical elements used to receive the light signals from the slit. The optical elements are aligned in the aberration-corrected lens system such that the different wavelengths from the input signal are focused at one plane

Flexible substrate is a type of substrate on which electronic circuit assemblies are mounted and pressure sensors are integrated within. Since it is usually made up of a single layer, there are high chances of a short circuit between components, which reduces the efficiency of the system. Further, the leakage current in the system increases due to lack of insulation. The patent proposes a method for creating an improved flexible substrate.
Exisiting infant monitoring systems are used to monitor the infant using a microphone placed near to the infaant. But there is no such monitoring system to check the infant's posture and position in the cradle. This patent describes an infant monitoring system for monitoring the cradle to monitor the posture of an infant using an alert mechanism.
Currently available technical approaches to detect exercise posture have a number of limitations. These range from manufacturing to sensing accurate points of contact between a user and the exercise mat. This leads to a decrease in reliability and efficiency of the systems available. The patent proposes a method for accurate deteection of posture using an exercise mat having sensors coupled with a wearable device such as a smart watch/band.
Current vaccine storage devices focus more on stockpile rather than transit to increase efficiency. Thus, volunteer and Anganwadi workers still rely on coffee-thermos flasks with ice-cubes to deliver temperature sensitive vials like Oral Polio Vaccine. The patent propopses a method for creating a portable bio medical refrigerator for storing vaccines while also controlling and monitoring the temperaure conditions.
Maintaing the correct posture is a critical part of any exercise, and failure to do so can lead to serious injuries to the body. Existing technologies and devices to monitor posture are not entirely accurate, leading to bodily harm. The patent proposes an improved method to monitor the exercise posture of an individual by making use of a flexible substrate (mat) and a wearable device equipped with sensors to detect posture.
Cooler boxes used to transport vaccines have no constant temperature monitoring system available. The refrigeration devices are bulky and need large amounts of power and space while transportation. This patent describes a lightweight portable refrigeration device to transport temperature sensitive objects using a cooling chamber with a refrigeration mechanism.
Burning agricultural waste is one of the major causes of pollution in India. Instead, this agro-waste can be used as the construction material to overcome the shortage of conventional building equipment raised due to rapid urbanisation. This patent proposes the art for making an eco-friendly bio-brick from agricultural waste that can be used to build a non-load-bearing wall.
AMBU-bags are self-inflating bags primarily used for keeping a patient respirated during movement from one location to another or during procedures such as CPR. It is necessary to supply the patient with large quantities of oxygen. However, untrained persons are often asked to perform manual resuscitation due to lack of trained staff. The patent proposes a mechanical ventilation device to mimic resuscitation from a trained person.
When red blood cells break down, a substance called bilirubin is formed. Babies are not easily able to get rid of the bilirubin and it can build up in the blood and other tissues and fluids of the baby's body. Presently, there is no point-of-care system available to measure the baby’s bilirubin level at home, at certain pre-defined intervals. The patent proposes a method to monitor bilirubin levels at home without using invasive techniques.
