Company patents

Verity AG

Verity AG's patent strategy reveals a surprising shift away from its core "Industrial & Autonomous Control" (38.6% of portfolio) and "Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (Drones)" (36.8% of portfolio) categories, both showing recent declines, despite a strong emerging focus on "Radar / Sonar / Lidar" which saw a 100.0% YoY growth in 2025 and a significant rebound in "Aircraft & Aerodynamics" with a 200.0% YoY growth so far in 2026.
