Company patents
NEC Solution Innovators, Ltd.
NEC Solution Innovators, Ltd. demonstrates a highly fluctuating patent strategy, with a surprising -100.0% year-over-year decline in patent filings across nearly all categories so far in 2026, including its top categories like Computer Vision (28.6% of portfolio) and Image Processing (21.4% of portfolio), after a significant surge in Computer Vision patents in 2025 (YoY +133.3%). This suggests a potential shift in focus or a re-evaluation of its patenting efforts, particularly given the sharp drop in previously active areas like Cryptographic Mechanisms and Computer Security, both experiencing -100.0% YoY declines in 2024 and 2026.

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.
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.
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.
Mechanisms to facilitate the secure exchange of data between different entities or systems while enforcing usage policies, managing digital content rights, and ensuring data consistency during replication or transfer.
Methods and systems for accurately determining the absolute or relative position of an object or device, often integrating satellite navigation (GNSS), inertial measurement units (IMU), and local ranging or wireless communication technologies.
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.
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.
Techniques for protecting data at rest or in backup, ensuring its integrity, confidentiality, and verifiable origin, often involving encryption, unique identifiers, or secure repositories.
Systems that monitor a user's actions, performance, or physiological state during a task or activity, and provide immediate or near real-time feedback to guide skill development, correct errors, or verify task completion.
Focuses on using distributed ledger technology (DLT) like blockchain to secure financial transactions, manage digital identities, or ensure data integrity and traceability across various applications.
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.
