USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 9 granted patents across 9 technology areas, active 2016–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H10F (INORGANIC SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES SENSITIVE TO INFRARED RADIATION, LIGHT, ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION OF SHORTER WAVELENGTH OR CORPUSCULAR RADIATION).
The verdict
Detection holds 9 US patents across 9 technology areas, rank #28,540 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Detection Technology OYJ has been granted 9 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Detection Technology OYJ at rank #28,540 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in H10F (INORGANIC SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES SENSITIVE TO INFRARED RADIATION, LIGHT, ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION OF SHORTER WAVELENGTH OR CORPUSCULAR RADIATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Detection Technology OYJ is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Detection sits between Deltawing Technology Group, Inc. (9 patents, rank #28,536) and Digital Direct IR, Inc. (9 patents, rank #28,544) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 35.6/100 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 7 grants, compared with 2 in the 2015–2019 window, a +250% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign 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. Detection Technology OYJ's 13.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Detection Technology OYJ against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Detection's 9 grants land it in the top 49% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
