Portfolio overview

Institute Of Automation, Chinese Academy Of Sciences has been granted 121 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Institute Of Automation, Chinese Academy Of Sciences at rank #3,121 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 53 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Institute Of Automation, Chinese Academy Of Sciences is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Institute sits between Ferring B.v. (121 patents, rank #3,117) and Sunrise Memory Corporation (121 patents, rank #3,125) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.9/100 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 85 grants, compared with 36 in the 2015–2019 window, a +136% 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. Institute Of Automation, Chinese Academy Of Sciences's 11.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 53 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Institute Of Automation, Chinese Academy Of Sciences against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
