Patents

    To have my inventions and patents documented, this page shows various international patents filed and granted. Patents were typically filed by the Philips Patent Office as European patents with filings in Germany, France, the UK, and sometimes other European countries, as well as in Japan and the United States. I am the inventor / co-inventor of nine patent families (a family denoting a group of patents that belong together). Applications that have not been filed and dropped patents are not considered here. The status of these intellectual property rights is changing over time (priority,publication, grant, all this per country) and keeping track is laborious. Below please find the 2012 search result using the European Patent Office under http://Services ep.espacenet.com/ (world-wide research, the same patent in different countries should occur once only). Note that a few of the listed patents are patents based on my patents. – Meanwhile (2025), all or most of these patents are not active any more.
