Investigation and Research

Investigation and Research on Industrial Property Systems

The investigation and research commissioned by the government or public organizations, as well as the independent investigation and research, are performed with financial assistance from the Japan Keirin Association.

Furthermore, in order to positively proceed with the investigation and research of various problems relating to industrial property systems, the JIII organizes the "Society for the Study of Patent Systems" consisting of specialists in academic and industrial fields.

Research Based on Commission

Well-understandable IPC (power-driven machinery, water treatment, cellular phone)

Researching and collecting standard technology (coding of animation (MPEG4), plasma display, technology of recycling cars, cosmetic materials)

Research and analysis of patent technology trends

Independent Research

Inquiry regarding lectures on intellectual property at universities (the actual results for the tenth fiscal year of Heisei)

Prepearing Patent Maps Classified by Technical Fields

In order to support the development of technology, and the creation of a new project in small and medium enterprises and venture business enterprises, the trends of technical development through patent information, patents to which rights are granted, patents to be licensed, etc. are mapped and explained so as to be well understood.

Such maps classified by technical fields, which plainly introduce the technique of processing and the practical use of patent information, including retrieval techniques, are prepared by the JIII as entrusted by the Japan Patent Office.
