Company patents
Sensormatic Electronics, LLC
Sensormatic Electronics, LLC's patent strategy reveals a surprising shift away from its core "Alarm & Signaling Systems," which, despite making up 45.0% of its portfolio, has seen a significant decline of -64.7% so far in 2026. While many categories show a general decline in patenting activity, the company had a notable, albeit temporary, surge in "Locks & Keys" in 2025 with a 125.0% YoY growth, indicating a brief, focused effort in that area before a sharp drop of -77.8% so far in 2026.
