Company patents

Guangdong Ocean University

Guangdong Ocean University, despite its name, shows a surprisingly diverse patent portfolio beyond marine-specific technologies, with a strong emerging focus in Gearing & Transmissions, which saw a 300.0% YoY growth in 2026 (so far), and a consistent interest in Industrial Control Systems, growing by 100.0% YoY in 2026. This contrasts with a significant decline in traditional areas like Ships & Marine Vessels and Computer Vision, both experiencing a -100.0% YoY drop in 2026, suggesting a strategic shift away from these domains.
