This report provides the latest patent analysis information (the IP landscape, including a patent map) on the patent search results of the JP patent database for LED素子技術[5F241] for the period of the last 10 years (2014-01-01 to 2024-04-30). You can compare the information in this report with the trends in your competitors’ patent filings and technologies, and use it to search for important patents.
This service provides, free of charge, a patent analysis report based on the latest patent data (Japanese, U.S., European, and PCT application publications) for use in patent searches, patent analysis, and IP landscaping. The service is offered by "Patent Integration" a firm specializing in patent search/patent analysis.
This report includes basic information to help you understand the IP strategy and management of LED素子技術, such as changes in the number of patents/patent applications they have filed, comparisons of the numbers of patents/patent applications filed by their peers and competitors, their top coapplicants (joint research partners, alliance partners), and their most important patents. It can be used in various intellectual property business operations such as IP landscaping, patent search/patent analysis, preparation of intellectual property business evaluation reports, selection of M&A candidates, and selection of alliance partners.
He is a patent attorney at a patent office. He specializes in invention counseling, patent filing, and intellectual property strategies for start-up companies and new businesses in the fields of software, information technology and artificial intelligence. He runs a patent course for beginners on Udemy, an online course provider.
After studying physics at the University of Tokyo as a doctoral student, he was engaged in intellectual property analysis and technology trend research as an in-house patent attorney at a precision equipment manufacturer and at Toyota Central R&D Labs. Inc..
The concept of the "IP landscape" (IPL) has been attracting attention recently.
An IP landscape is not limited to patent information, but also integrates and analyzes business information (e.g., non-patent information such as papers, news releases, stock information, and market information). Intellectual-property-based business management is realized through the analysis of intellectual property information applied to the formulation of management strategies and business strategies. This is a comprehensive approach that includes but not limited to planning of open and closed strategies, selecting M&A candidates, searching for alliance partners, and formulating intellectual property strategies, through the exploitation of intellectual property information.
IP landscaping usually includes patent search and patent analysis. In patent search and patent analysis, it is important to grasp the market position of each company and the overall technological trends and development trends for each technology. More specifically, it is important to understand what intellectual property your own company and other companies hold, what the strengths and weaknesses of other companies are, and how other companies are trying to exploit their intellectual property. In other words, it is important to understand both the business strategy and the intellectual property strategy of each company.
After reading this search report, you may be interested in more detailed patent searches and patent analysis. We offer a service called Patent Integration, which is an integrated patent search and patent analysis service. With reasonable pricing and a simple user interface such that even beginners can quickly search for and analyze patent information by company or technology from a web browser, please consider using it for detailed patent searches, patent analysis, and IP landscaping.
Patent Integration has a patent-landscaping function that can visually represent a set of tens of thousands of patents/patent applications. This allows you to convincingly show the technical positions of your company and its competitors to your management and business strategists in order to formulate management strategies and business strategies.
The changes in the number of patent filings of LED素子技術 over the last 20 years (JP) are shown below.
The change in the number of patents/patent applications is the most basic index in patent analysis. By examining the change in the number of patents/patent applications, you can see the status of technological development and R&D focus for each company or technology. It should be noted that since there is a one and a half year lag between the filing and the laying open of patent applications, it is not possible to analyze the situation more recently than one and half years prior to the present.
In this report, you can only see the change in the number of patents/patent applications by company or technology, whereas Patent Integration allows you to quickly compare the number of patent applications with your competitors in each technical field by cross-referencing with other keywords and patent classifications.
Patent landscaping is a visualization of the distribution of patent filings (application focus areas) for each technical keyword. Mountains and islands indicated by heatmap contours represent clusters of patent applications filed, and red areas on the heatmap indicate many patent filings relating to the keyword.
The patent landscape for LED素子技術 gives an intuitive understanding of what patent filings they have made and what technical position is to be established. By selecting filing year checkboxes and filtering, you can track their past filing trends (what technical area they have focused on).
By selecting applicant/patent holder checkboxes and filtering, you can visually grasp the technical areas of the filings for each applicant and the partnerships or alliances formed. Please use it as a guide for patent analysis and IP landscaping.
In addition, by visually representing the patent data in this manner, you can convincingly show the technical positions of your company and its competitors to your management and business strategists in order to formulate management strategies and business strategies.
In Patent Integration, you can check the specifics of a patent filing by clicking anywhere on the patent landscape screen. You can also quickly check the position of each applicant for each technical field by cross-referencing with other keywords and patent classifications. You can use it as a guide when considering hypotheses about each company's IP strategy on the IP Landscape. You can also use it for higher-grade intellectual property activities. It has reasonable pricing and a simple user interface that is easy for beginners to handle.
The following is a list of words (characteristic terms) often used in LED素子技術 patent applications. Characteristic terms with a higher importance are used in more patents/patent applications.
This patent analysis report was created for a patent search set of 4,150 cases retrieved by applying the following search formula and analysis period to the following patent database. Patent information such as a patent analysis result, a patent map, and a patent landscape can be freely used for patent searches, analysis, and work on intellectual property strategies, including IP landscaping.
