This report focuses on how Patent data can help uncover the trends, gaps and opportunities that exist around this area. You will find the information on the research activity, packaging types, the companies most active in this research area, the filings spread, key comparisons etc. The contextual similarity between different technologies across complete patent portfolio is represented by contour maps. Here, distance between clusters is proportional to the difference between patent themes. This report was prepared by mining patent data using Patent iNSIGHT Pro, a comprehensive patent analysis platform that helps one accelerate time-to-decision from patent analysis activities.
