Company patents
LINE CORPORATION
LINE CORPORATION's patent strategy shows a surprising shift away from its core Messaging & Email, which makes up 38.3% of its portfolio but saw a 50.0% decline in 2024. While most categories experienced significant declines, an emerging focus on Wireless Networks is evident with a 100.0% year-over-year growth in 2024, suggesting a strategic pivot towards underlying communication infrastructure.

Methods and systems for enhancing the security and privacy of electronic messages, often by integrating contextual data such as location, social network graphs, or user authentication levels to control access, filter content, or enable specific group interactions.
Features within messaging platforms that enhance user interaction and content consumption through intelligent suggestions, content persistence mechanisms, engagement analytics, and adaptive presentation of conversational media.
Core infrastructure and operational techniques for efficient and reliable message handling, including server-side logic for managing subscriptions, aggregating messages, optimizing network connections, and ensuring data consistency across distributed messaging services.
User interface designs and systems that enable multiple users to interact with shared content, provide feedback, or coordinate activities, often across different devices or locations.
Technologies for securing, managing, and transacting with virtual currencies, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and other blockchain-based digital assets, including hardware wallets and tokenization schemes for various purposes.
Technologies that create dynamic and interactive visual content for displays, including virtual/wearable systems, by generating overlays, replacing input streams, or merging real-time user actions with digital environments.
Methods and systems for improving the quality of video streams, generating intermediate frames, or continuously locating and following objects within a sequence of images, even under occlusion.
Mobile applications and systems leveraging wireless communication and location data (e.g., GPS, RFID, geo-fencing) to provide context-specific services, transactions, or user interactions.
Systems designed to streamline and automate various commercial transactions, including mobile-enhanced processes, secure online checkouts, customer service interactions, and privilege issuance, often leveraging digital authentication.
Techniques for rendering, interacting with, and managing content within augmented or virtual reality environments, including spatial tracking, gaze interaction, and dynamic multi-application display management.
Designing user interfaces and interaction methods specifically for mobile or wearable devices, enabling control of external systems, monitoring user states, or facilitating real-world transactions.
Processes for creating or manipulating three-dimensional digital representations of objects or environments, including mesh generation, surface fitting, and depth estimation from multiple views.
Systems and methods for encrypting data at a fine-grained level (e.g., per data unit or based on sensitivity) and controlling access to it, often involving delegated authorization, contextual policies, or secure data sharing.
Techniques for generating human-like text or other content using large pre-trained models, often involving prompt engineering, speculative decoding, or multi-modal inputs for content creation.
