Company patents
SeeScan, Inc.
SeeScan, Inc. demonstrates a primary focus on Geophysics & Gravity Measurement, representing 45.3% of its portfolio, yet this area has seen a significant decline in patenting activity with a -15.0% YoY drop in 2025 and a -58.8% drop so far in 2026. Surprisingly, despite a broad decline across many categories in 2026, Material & Chemical Analysis showed a strong resurgence in 2025 with a +75.0% YoY growth, indicating a potential shifting priority before its current year's partial decline.
