Divisions

What is IPRThe term Intellectual Property refers to creation of mind or

the intellect.

Intellectual Property Rights (IPR)

These rights are statutory rights and may be protected by law in the same way as any other form of property.

They are governed in accordance with the provisions of corresponding legislations.

They usually give the creator an exclusive right over the use of his/her creations for a certain period of time i.e., these rights allow the creators or owners to have the benefits from their works when they are exploited commercially.

Types of IPR

Patent Definition & Patentability Subject Matter A patent is a set of exclusive rights

granted by the respective government to the inventor or his assignee, for a limited period of time, in exchange of a complete disclosure of the Invention.

Patent is granted for A Product A Process or Both product and process

Office of Intellectual Property and Technology Licensing (IP TeL)

The Office of Intellectual Property of the Indian Institute of Science was set up in 2004.

The Primary objective of IP TeL is protection and maintaining of the Intellectual Property of the Institute which includes Patent, Copyright, Trademarks.

It also involved in the objectives of technology transfer and intellectual property management consultation.

Idea-Sustain This invention generally relates to the field of

Computer Aided Design (CAD). Further this invention relates to the capture, maintenance and reuse of product and process information in Product Life Cycle Management (PLM). Development of a suitable product model schema and a framework for real time capture and reuse of evolving product information is embodied in the present invention. The framework consists of the following entities: product structure, snaps, events, versions, version tree and audio-video clips. These entities are used in conjunction to capture the rationale in the design process, which consists if what happened during this process (the outcomes of the process) and the reasons behind them (the way in which the outcomes came about). In the present invention, the outcomes are captured in terms of the temporally and causally linked version trees with the product structure and associated geometry and other information. The reasons are captured implicitly in terms of the video clips and by providing the context of these clips by placing them between relevant snaps.

Optical nano sensor for early stage detection of bactocera olea infestation

The invention provides an optical nanosensor for early detection of pheromones of the olive fruit fly. The optical nanosensor includes a functionalized surface, amount for embedding the functionalized surface and a perforated housing for replacably retaining the mount. After the detection of the pheromone, the user may be alerted of an impending pest attack and the user can then take appropriate pest control measures.

Electrical Gradient Augmented Fluid Filtration Apparatus

The invention provides a method for an electrical gradient augmented fluid filtration. The method includes directing the fluid through a first filtration step to remove the coarse impurities. The fluid is then subjected to an electrical gradient for a predetermined time duration to obtain a filtrate. The filtrate is then passed through a second filtration step to obtain an impurity free fluid. An apparatus for electrical gradient augmented fluid filtration is also provided. The apparatus is portable and provides for sub-micron particle filtration

Patient Transfer Device The Present invention provides a subject

transfer apparatus includes a subject transferor 100 and a subject-resting platform 200 mounted with a subject-resting support member 201. The said subject transferor 100 with a plurality of prongs 116 is arranged to extend through the subject-resting support member 201, by initially allowing an intervening space between the subject and the movable subject transferor 100 and thereafter establishing a contact with the subject-resting support member201, to lift and receive said subject from said subject-resting support member 201. Thus the transfer apparatus of the present invention is configured to transfer the subject from one movable platform to another without a need for altering the posture of or touching the subject, during the transfer
