Technology fields

This chart provides a distribution of the analyzed results across the 35 broad technology fields. Each technology field is represented with the number of patent families it holds indicated by the color intensity and is ordered alphabetically.

Suggestion:


Observe the top technology fields with the darkest colors, as they hold the most patent families. These fields signify areas where your analyzed results are more focused.

Technology areas and fields

This chart provides a distribution of the analyzed results across the 5 main technology areas.
The inner pie chart counts in how many patent families the single technology area appears, both in absolute value and in percentage to the total number of patents families.

Suggestion:


Observe how your analyzed results distribute across the top technology areas to understand in which technical domain they are more focused.

Technology fields over time

This heatmap chart displays how the analyzed results developed over time, with respect to the 35 technology fields.
The horizontal axis shows the priority year, while the vertical axis lists the technology fields. Each cell represents the number of patent families in the analyzed results for a specific priority year and technology field. The color intensity in the heatmap increases with a higher number of patent families, with darker colors indicating more significant patenting activity.

Suggestion:

Pay attention to dark-colored regions and how the analyzed results spread across technology fields over time. Tracking these variations can provide valuable information about emerging technologies and shifts in research and development focus.

Applicants per technology fields

This heatmap chart displays how the main applicants in your result list are divided, with respect to the 35 technology fields.
The horizontal axis lists the main technology fields present in your analyzed results, while the vertical axis lists the main applicants. Each cell represents the number of patent families for a specific applicant and technology field. The color intensity in the heatmap increases with a higher number of patent families, with darker colors indicating more significant patenting activity.

Suggestion:

Pay attention to dark-colored regions and how the analyzed results of a specific applicant spread across technology fields. Tracking this can provide valuable information about the technological focus that each company has.


Technological fields per patent families

This graph illustrates the number of technology fields covered by the single patent family.
The horizontal axis represents the number of technology fields covered, and the vertical axis indicates the number of patent families.

Suggestion:

Use this chart to assess the technological broadness of patent families based. Patent families covering a larger number of technological fields may indicate broader applicability and commercial viability.
