The Office of Intellectual Property & Technology Licensing (IP TeL) at IISc was established in 2004 to protect the intellectual property of IISc, including patents, copyrights, and trademarks. It also handles technology transfer and licensing. IP TeL files patents for innovations developed at IISc and licenses the technologies commercially. Between 2015-2016, IP TeL filed 43 patents, granted 2 patents, licensed 1 patent for Rs. 70 lakhs. Some examples of technologies licensed include a hybrid capacitor, an insecticide production process, and taxol/bactin production. IISc has been actively pursuing intellectual property protection since 1950, with its earliest patent application filed in 1950.

5. What is IPR
The 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 otherformof 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.

20. IP in IISc – Historical
Perspective
Earliest Patent Application Filed by IISc,
(according to IP Cell records)
Filed in Calcutta Office on
April 10, 1950!!!
Specification No. 42964
Filed in the name of
the then-Director, Prof. M S Thacker

21.  Portable Washing Machine for Rural
Areas
 A portable washing machine comprising a
drum assembly comprising atleast one
drum and a shaft 31 with a sprocket 21, the
drum is provided with washing brushes for
brushing clothes, and a means of transport
comprising a frame 3 upon which the drum
assembly is mounted on rear side, a seat
13 placed onto the frame 3, pedals 18
mounted on a pedal rod 19 fitted onto front
side of the frame 3 with bearings, a sprocket
20 is fixed on the pedal rod 19, wherein said
sprocket 20 is connected to the sprocket 21
on the shaft 31 of the drum assembly with a
closed chain for rotating the drum assembly

22.  Flood-resistant Septic Tank
 The present invention is in
relation to an integrated
sanitation system and assembly
for effective treatment of
wastewater comprising a septic
tank, filtration chamber, and a
toilet and bathroom chamber
mounted on the septic tank for
habitations with high water table
and prone to flooding and tidal
waves. In addition the invention
also provides a process for
treating wastewater.

23.  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.

24.  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.

25.  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

26.  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

test cell apparatus for in situ X-ray
diffraction study of aqueous batteries,
wherein the apparatus can include (a) a top
body; (b) a centre body having a recessed
portion that defines a volume for containing
an electrolyte and a working electrode
support on which a working electrode is
mounted; the centre body further
comprising means for mounting a reference
electrode in close proximity of said working
electrode; (c) a bottom body, and (d) a
counter electrode disposed between said
center body and bottom body. The in-situ X-
ray electrochemical cell structure allows for
continuous monitoring of the structural
changes in electrode materials during
charge discharge cycles over wide range of
bragg angles.
