Mr Sonam Wangchuk
With over 400 patents, Mr Wangchuk is one of only 5 Indians in the World with such a high number of registered patents. In addition to being an eloquent scientist, Mr Wangchuk is also a gallantry awardee of India’s Maha Vir Chakra.We are honoured to share with you that Mr Wangchuk has been kind and generous enough to have offered to mentor Shorya at his base science lab in Ladakh.
Patent Filing
Shorya has filed for his first patent along with his Robotics Team for a physiotherapy device which works as an artificial psychotherapist. It consists of wearable tech and a mobile app. The device itself consists of thin light weight limbs and electronically powered joints, which can be strapped onto the user’s arms or legs. The artificial joints move the wearers limbs along with them, flexing and relaxing muscles in the body thereby conducting physiotherapy. There are numerous exercises that the device can conduct that fight physical injuries and selective muscular diseases. Shorya led the design and building of this device.
