Company patents
Fluke Corporation
Fluke Corporation, despite its historical association with Electrical Measurement (23.1% of portfolio), shows a surprising shift away from this core area, with a -100.0% decline in patenting so far in 2026. Instead, the company appears to be rapidly expanding its focus on Image Processing, which saw a significant 160.0% growth in 2025, and Radar / Sonar / Lidar, which experienced a remarkable 350.0% growth in 2024, indicating a strategic pivot towards advanced sensing and imaging technologies.
