Consumer Physics SCiO Molecular Sensor Patent-to-Product Mapping Report 2017: 13,000 Backers on Kickstarter and Raised Over $2.7 Million - Research and Markets
DUBLIN, Mar 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Consumer Physics SCiO Molecular Sensor Patent-to-Product Mapping" report to their offering.
Consumer Physics Inc. develops and distributes molecular sensors, marketing its product under the SCiO brand name. According to Consumer Physics, the SCiO spectrometer is the world's first pocket size molecular sensor. The company had over 13,000 backers on Kickstarter and ended up raising over $2.7 million.
A Clear Link Between Products And Patents
Combining the data obtained by System Plus Consulting's teardown of the SCiO molecular sensor with Knowmade's IP analysis, this report highlights IP related to this pocket-sized spectrometer. Moreover, it analyzes Consumer Physics' patent portfolio in order to understand the company's IP strategy and to identify main IP competitors.
Patent-To-Product Mapping
System Plus Consulting tore down the SCiO molecular sensor. Knowmade then compared the features this revealed to Consumer Physics' IP portfolio. The selected features are mainly related to the spectrometer package, spectrometer module, illumination module and temperature sensor module. The report identifies key patents held by Consumer Physics related to these technology features. For each product feature, we have established links between patented technologies, including legal status, and the product.
Deep Technology Analysis
System Plus Consulting has analyzed the technology using optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Knowmade has combined this with deep IP study, helping to understand the architecture and operation of the SCiO molecular sensor. For each key feature, we have selected the main claims and relevant parts of the description for highlighting the patented technology used in the handheld spectrometer.
Patent Portfolio Analysis And Ip Competitive Environment
We have analyzed Consumer Physics' patent portfolio, including publication trends, country of publication and main inventors, and identified IP competitors. Consumer Physics' portfolio is recent and cited only by four assignees. Consumer Physics itself cites 109 patent families, representing around 90 assignees. Combining the citation network with analysis of the content of citing/cited patents, we have ranked Consumer Physics' IP competitors of to establish a general view of the IP competitive environment.
