Patent IPC : EP 4 458 223 A1

For Firdaus, as it is now and how we plan to develop it in the future, we have filed a patent because it offers a clear technical solution: It facilitates prayer by automatically capturing movements without causing any disturbance and simultaneously protecting the body. This ensures that we can perform the prescribed movements fully even into old age, while also supporting our memory. This function requires precisely developed sensors and thoughtful integration, which has not been available before. With the patent, we ensure that this technology is protected, allowing us to continue offering our customers a high-quality, functional product that stands out from others. This application underscores how serious we are about this prayer rug and how convinced we are of this idea.

What does the patent protect?

The patent protects an intelligent prayer rug specifically designed to automatically track the progress of prayers and protect the more vulnerable areas of the body. In detail, the patent covers:

  • Sensor Technology in the Prayer Rug: The rug is equipped with sensors that detect movements such as standing, bowing, and kneeling. These sensors register changes in pressure or proximity to track the exact progress during prayer.

  • Automated Prayer Monitoring: The prayer rug automatically counts the movements made during prayer, so the user does not have to manually count or get distracted from their prayer.

  • Data Processing and Feedback: The collected data is sent to an integrated processing and communication unit. This unit can display the information on a screen or forward it to an external device, such as a smartphone. The rug also offers the possibility of providing audio feedback, such as playing prayer texts or counting prayer movements.

  • Ergonomic Design: The rug is foldable, and padded to provide comfort and protect the joints, especially the knees. This is particularly helpful for people with health issues.

Thus, the patent covers both the technical functionality of the rug and its ergonomic design to make the prayer process easier and more comfortable.
