Company patents
Communications Test Design, Inc.
Communications Test Design, Inc. exhibits a strong and rapidly evolving focus on computing technologies, with Image Processing representing the largest share at 29.1% of its portfolio and experiencing significant growth of +300.0% in 2024. While there's a broad investment across various computing sub-sectors, the sharp decline in patents so far in 2026 across most categories, including a 100.0% drop in System Reliability & Diagnostics and Wireless Networks, suggests a potential shift in patenting activity or a more selective approach this year.

Systems that employ imaging and image processing to automatically detect defects, verify states, or ensure quality control in manufactured goods, printed materials, or industrial processes.
Systems and methods for securely and reliably delivering, installing, and managing software or firmware updates to distributed or embedded devices, often considering network conditions, resource constraints, or storage repartitioning.
Systems and methods for maintaining and improving the quality of printed images, encompassing adjustments to developing bias based on environmental conditions, paper characteristic detection, and color profile generation.
Technologies for removing contaminants from critical surfaces of sensors, vehicle parts, or industrial components, often involving automated or semi-automated processes. This can include physical, acoustic, or fluid-based methods to maintain functionality.
Methods and apparatus for detecting objects and determining their three-dimensional position and orientation (pose) using imagery or point cloud data, often for navigation, surveying, or environmental understanding.
Systems and methods for uniquely identifying, tracking, and managing physical items using scannable codes (barcodes, QR codes) or wireless tags (RFID, IoT devices) to link physical objects to digital information, inventory, or services.
Methods and apparatus for improving the visual fidelity, resolution, or compression efficiency of video signals, often through advanced processing, up-scaling, or neural network-based filters.
