Objectives
Engage university-wide IP activities — from awareness and identification to filing, prosecuting, and maintaining created IP.
Foster industry links for technology licensing, know-how transfer, and other IP-related commercial activities.
Promote commercialization and deployment of university-developed technologies to benefit society.
Faculty, researchers, postdocs, students, visiting scholars, industry collaborators, and corporate sponsors — all of whose IP forms a strategic asset for commercialization, start-up partnerships, and long-term institutional growth.
A centralized disclosure process guides IP creators step-by-step through what to submit, what information to include, the review process, and various timelines for protecting submitted IP.

Skill-gap Analysis and Recommender System
A skill-gap analysis and recommender system and method that serves as a personalized education and skill (PES) map. It conducts a comprehensive analysis of past student data and current market trends to make recommendations adapted to each student's profile in line with their individual career goals.
System for the Automated, Context Sensitive, and Non-intrusive Insertion of Consumer-adaptive Content in Video
Assesses 'context' in a video through multiple modalities and metadata, and analyzes relevance for a consumer based on profile information, content history, social media and consumer interests, and professional or educational background.
Vehicle Management System
A method and system for managing vehicles within a boundary. Docking stations allocate a vehicle to a user based on allocation criteria; each vehicle restricts movement when in close proximity to the defined boundary.
Adaptive Multimodal Communication Assist System
A computer implemented method and system for assisting a user to learn and/or communicate in a visual communication language in one or more modes, generating learning and testing components for the user.
Haptic Feedback System
A haptic feedback system for use in a virtual environment, comprising a finger arrangement with wrapping structures, a gear unit, an actuator unit, and a control unit that measures angular and positional characteristics of the hand.
Digital Circuit Realization with Partitioning
A method for realizing a digital circuit design with partitioning by determining a design for each partition based on a populated simulated annealing optimization.
Colorizing Black and White Videos Using Damping Factor and Pixel Tolerance
Divides and resizes video frames into 256×256 images, passes frames into ML models for colorizing, selects final frames using Numpy and OpenCV, and merges them into a colorized video.
Method and System for Conducting Interactive Rehabilitation Sessions with Continuous Monitoring
Generates rehabilitation tasks using a user's current condition and physiotherapist recommendations, performed in a virtual environment and monitored with image processing, providing real-time corrective feedback.
A System for The Automated, Context Sensitive and Non-intrusive Insertion of Consumer-adaptive Content in Video
Assesses context through multiple modalities and metadata, analyzing relevance based on end-user profile and localizing homogenous regions in the image via search techniques.
Online Examination Monitoring – Microservice Orchestration with Kubernetes
A system for monitoring online examinations using an AI model of rules; containerized into microservices managed by Kubernetes, alerting and stopping tests after repeated rule violations.
Skill Gap Analysis and Recommender System
A personalized education and skill (PES) map that analyzes past student data and market trends to make career recommendations using adaptive association pattern mining.
Identification of Facial Expression in Images
Uses two CNNs — one pre-trained and fine-tuned, one custom-trained — to independently indicate probable facial expressions, with a final result determined from both.
Real Time Crime Detection and Prevention Using Live CCTV Footage
Preprocesses live CCTV video by segmenting and grouping frames, applies CNN coupled Slow-Fast Dual networks for feature extraction, and classifies crime with a pre-trained ML model, triggering alarms when detected.
Connectionless Vending Machine Using Encrypted QR Code
Reads encrypted QR codes generated by a mobile app to process orders in semi-offline or fully offline mode, with a two-layer dispenser mechanism that auto-cycles unclaimed products.
Speech Based Scriber for Visually Impaired Students
Scribes text from received speech using a speech-to-text converter, with a color changing module that identifies repeated vocal segments to assist visually impaired students.
A Flying Object for Dispensing Chemical Composition and Method Thereof
Uses drones with sensor data to detect crop diseases via machine learning models along an assigned flight path, opening a dispensing unit only over diseased vegetation.
Digital Circuit Realization Using Simulated Annealing
Generates an initial sample set of digital circuits, perturbs and evaluates a fitness score for each, and selects the best-scoring sample as the final design realization.
A Drag Enhancement Apparatus for Spacecraft
Uses a tuft of ultra-thin wires deployed on-board a spacecraft to increase drag area, creating aerodynamic and Coulomb drag for effective de-orbiting.
Production of Hydrogen Using Solar Paint
A hydrogen production assembly with modules coated in photocatalyst paint that produce hydrogen from water via photocatalysis, aided by moveable reflectors that maximize incident light.
Facial Recognition
Generates a circular constituent vector for a facial facet and compares it against a stored image's corresponding vector to determine a match.
Circuit Emulator Using Support Vector Machine Classifiers
Uses a set of binary SVM classifiers — one per output bit — to represent and implement a combinational circuit design, with pre-loaded parameters enabling multiple digital functions.
Image Recognition
Detects a region in an image, fragments it into sections, extracts features per section, and formulates a descriptor vector matrix mapping features to sections.
Fetal Monitoring
Extracts maternal and fetal heart rates from piezoelectric microphone audio via bandpass filtering and peak counting, and can extract fetal kick count by normalizing the audio signal.
Internet-of-things (IoT) Enabled Fire Safety System with Enhanced Emergency Response Features
Integrates fire alarm control panels with an IoT-enabled public addressing panel for zone mapping and two-way communication, with automatic phone calls on non-acknowledgment.
Robot Based Surface Cleaner
A robot cleaning apparatus with dual arms, lead screws, and suction cups — the cleaning attachment moves with the second arm along the lead screw to clean the surface.
