Portfolio overview
Cardinal Technologies Inc. has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing Cardinal Technologies Inc. at rank #45,741 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 2 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 4.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in F41H (ARMOUR; ARMOURED TURRETS; ARMOURED OR ARMED VEHICLES; MEANS OF ATTACK OR DEFENCE, e.g. CAMOUFLAGE, IN GENERAL). As a US Corporation, Cardinal Technologies Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Cardinal sits between Captain JRT Llc (5 patents, rank #45,737) and Cardware, Inc. (5 patents, rank #45,745) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 27.0/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 4 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +300% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Cardinal Technologies Inc.'s 4.2 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while specialization in 2 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Cardinal Technologies Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
