Portfolio overview

Immersion, Llc has been granted 656 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Immersion, Llc at rank #686 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 95 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a US Corporation, Immersion, Llc is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Immersion sits between Pfizer Inc. (659 patents, rank #682) and Psemi Corporation (654 patents, rank #690) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.2/100 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 103 grants, compared with 553 in the 2015–2019 window, a -81% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Immersion, Llc's 20.8 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 95 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Immersion, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
