Autonomous IoT
The autonomous smart home system can recognize the contextual
or semantic profiling of a person or place or devices (physical environment)
based on sensed data by the IoT devices. The adaptable autonomous smart
home system determines particular interpretation instructions (define particular
IoT device control rules) that are associated with the particular physical
environment and dynamically updates the control rules for changing physical
environment.
Qualcomm patent US9413827 is the first issued patent regarding the
autonomous IoT system. The autonomous IoT system includes a variety of
heterogeneous IoT devices to be able to communicate with each other.
The IoT heterogeneous devices can recognize each other by virtue of a unique
identifier. The autonomous IoT system detects a context of the IoT devices
(e.g., space, time, location, status/events, etc.) and performs actions in response
(e.g., issues a command or trigger a specific IoT device to perform a
corresponding action or state change).

Autonomous IoT -2
For example, if the sleep monitoring device senses that a child is sleeping in a
room, the autonomous IoT system makes the lighting in the room remain off.
If a parent walks in to check on the child (context of the parent and child being
in the same room), the autonomous IoT system triggers an action of lighting up
to a 10% dimmed state.
The autonomous IoT system also can recognize the context with respect to
relationship among different users. For example, if person A (e.g., husband)
walks into the room when a music system in the room playing the genre of music
for person B (e.g., wife), the music system can switch to a music genre that both
person A and person B like.

Prior Arts Search
Even if the internet of things (IoT) gets a huge attention recently, the concept of
interconnected devices and connecting billions of devices to the internet in the
IoT is not new and has been researched for over 10 years. Thus, a large number
of non-patent prior arts including research papers and books can be existed.
Therefore, the intensive search of non-patent prior arts is needed for preparing
the IoT patent.
US20150019710 illustrates a good example case that intensive search of
non-patent prior arts is required. US20150019710 claims a method of
maintaining interoperability amongst IoT devices connected via an IoT
integration platform. The key elements of the claim 1 at issue are the
interoperable control rule based on the semantic label associated with a
user's IoT device.

Prior Arts Search -2
The USPTO rejected the claim 1 under the AIA 102(b) as being anticipated by
a non-patent prior art regarding the semantic interoperability on the web.
Semantic interoperability enables exchange of data among different web system.
The inventor argued that the semantic label in the non-patent prior associated
with a user's IoT device and amended claim to clarify the distinguished aspects
of the claim form the prior art. However, the USPTO rejected the claim again in
the final rejection based on newly founded non-patent prior art that explicitly
mentions the IoT device in the disclosure.

Claim Drafting for Maximum Quality & Value
When the IoT patent claims are drafted, several factors that can make the patent
high quality and value should be considered. The factors are (1) claim scope
and broadness, (2) value propositions of a claim’s novelty point (non-obvious
inventive departure from the prior arts), (3) claim mix (degree to which different
kind of statutory claim types (e.g. apparatus, process, manufactures,
composition) are used in a patent), (4) claim diversity (degree to which different
kind of claim formats (e.g. means-plus-function claim), terminology, arrangement
in a given statutory claim type (e.g. number or order of claim elements) are used
In a patent) and (5) claim setting (degree to which different kind of commercially
significant settings (e.g. component/system or transmitter/receiver) are used in
a patent).

Claim Drafting for Maximum Quality & Value -2
The features to be considered in the claim drafting to get the high quality and
value patents with the optimal quality to cost (efforts and time in addition to
monetary cost) ratio can be decided exploiting the insights for products/services
that is going to be covered by the patent (e.g. attributes of a product/service that
valued most by customers), the patent landscape to figure out the competitors’
patents (e.g. whether design around is required to avoid infringing competitors’
patents) and internal patenting process (including available patent budget).
For example, if a patent is going to use for excluding the competitors, the key
features to be considered in the claim drafting will be the claim diversity (to avoid
potential infringement loophole) and claim mix (to provide protection against
invalidation).

Claim Drafting & Amendment under Post-Alice 101 Eligibility Test
The basic building blocks of the IoT are devices that can sense/recognize their
surrounding environments and communicate with other devices, connecting/
communicating network medium/infrastructure that can interconnect devices and
connect devices to the internet, back-end IT systems that can process
information (data) obtained by the IoT devices (e.g. cloud computing/big data
analytics) and provide the value added services exploiting the information.
Therefore, a part or whole of data aggregation, data transfer, data correlation,
data analysis and services based on the data are the essential elements of the
IoT inventions, and thus, the elements of the IoT patent claims. Consequently,
many of IoT patents can be identified as abstract ideas because they are the
certain methods of organizing human activities/mental process or fundamental
economic practices or mathematical relationships/formulas unless the IoT patent
claims are drafted carefully to pass the post-Alice 101 patent eligibility test.

detecting issues and facilitating the transmission of alert messages in a home
network consisting of a plurality of consumer electronic devices coupled to a
service node, the method comprising: storing information regarding home
entities in an inventory database, the entities comprising the household,
one or more users within the household, devices in the household, applications
running on the devices, and a community of which the household is included;
defining usage classes for each entity, the usage classes denoting a primary
function associated with an entity, and comprising networking, productivity,
and entertainment; assigning an index value to each usage class for each
entity, the index value comprising an integer value within a fixed range, and
reflecting a relative level of satisfaction associated with the entity for each
respective usage class; monitoring data regarding usage trends, performance
characteristics, and external variables associated with the entities;

modifying one or more of the index values based on the monitored data; and
facilitating the transmission of messages regarding services or products related
to the entities of the home from one or more parties, wherein the messages are
conformed to index values.
This claim was rejected under 101 by the USPTO because the claim is directed
towards the abstract idea: storing data regarding entities, classifying entities,
assigning index values, monitoring usage data, modifying the index values and
transmitting messages regarding services or products related to the entities
based on index values. Thus, simply transferring the data through the networks
or processed the data for providing services will not sufficient to transform the
nature of the claimed invention into a patent-eligible claim. Additional elements
that are sufficient to amount to significantly more than the abstract idea are
needed.

microprocessor/controller) or that either recite a specific series of steps that
resulted in a departure from a human activity or transform a particular thing to

Patent Disclosure Drafting & Prosecution in Alignment with Business
Strategy
The IoT patents should support future development of the IoT businesses and
commercial implementations of the IoT innovations. The disclosures of the IoT
patent can be considered as a system that is consist of the basic building blocks
of the IoT as a subsystem: (1) devices that can sense/recognize their
surrounding environments and communicate with other devices, (2) connecting
/communicating network medium/infrastructure that can interconnect devices and
connect devices to the internet, (3) back-end IT systems that can process
information (data) obtained by the IoT devices (e.g. cloud computing/big data
analytics) and (4) provide the value added services exploiting the information.
Then, the system as a whole and each basic building block as a subsystem can
be construed in the disclosures to support future development of IoT businesses
and commercial implementations of the IoT innovations.

Patent Disputes Risk Assessment
As we have seen in the smartphone market development, it is expected that the
super-competition to occupy the leadership in the lucrative IoT market can
lead to another round of patent wars. The post-smartphone patent wars,
however, will be more extensive because of more extensive participation of
players across several different industries. The post-smartphone patent wars will
also be more complex because of the recent rapid change in legal environment
and the learning curve from the smartphone patent wars.
• A large number of patents owned by commercially unsuccessful companies
can be the potential patent disputes risk (e.g., smart home).
• A large number of patents owned by the patent monetizing entities is a
potential patent disputes risk (e.g., connected car, IoT connectivity).
• A large number of patents owned by entities from different industries is a
potential patent disputes risk (e.g., connected car, connected health).

successfully was very small. This is similar to the situation that, even if there
were so many innovators and entrepreneurs, only small numbers achieved
commercial success from their ideas.
In “The Innovator's DNA”, the authors identified the code of successful
innovators that distinguishes them from others based on the case study of well
known successful innovators such as Steve Jobses and Jeff Bezoses. The key
lesson from the research of the innovator’s DNA was that the successful
innovators’ DNA is not simply genetic traits endowed, but that they can be
developed. Then, by the analogy, one can ask similar questions for patent:
What make the monetizing patents different?;
Can we find the code of the monetizing patents?;
Can we identify and develop the monetizing patents?

Deep learning is a machine learning technique that attempts to learn layered
models of inputs that mimics the human brain’s reasoning process.
Deep learning techniques, such as deep belief networks and deep
convolutional networks, are layered artificial neural networks architectures
in which the output of a first layer of neurons becomes an input to a second
layer of neurons, the output of a second layer of neurons becomes and input
to a third layer of neurons, and so on. The layers correspond to distinct levels of
concepts where higher-level concepts are derived from lower-level concepts
(hierarchy of complex concepts that are constructed out of simpler concepts).

Allstate Connected Car Big Data Monetization
Allstate recently announced its launch of an independent telematics business
Arity. Allstate patent US9269202 provides details regarding the connected car
telematics business that provides data analytics products to third parties.
The Arity telematics system collects vehicle operation data at regular time
intervals. Thus, the collected data is time marked. The data can also be location
marked using the GPS. The vehicle operation data includes data from on board
diagnostic systems and car area network systems (e.g., speed, rate of
acceleration, activation of brakes, degree and duration of steering direction, etc.)
and other monitoring systems (e.g., presence and distance of objects behind or
ahead of the vehicle, driver physiological status, etc.). The collected data
transferred to the remote data processing system. The remote data processing
system creates databases for evaluating driver behavior or operation
characteristics (e.g., aggressiveness, recklessness, compliance with laws, etc.).

Allstate Connected Car Big Data Monetization -2
The database can be correlated or evaluated with other databases for a wide
variety of uses. For example, the data can be cross-correlated to another
information database that is also time or location specific. The time or location
specific data includes applicable local speed laws, weather events, and
traffic signals (e.g., operation of the vehicle without headlights in a rainy day,
driving 80 mph in a 55 mph speed limit zone, etc.).
The processed data can be provided to third parties (e.g., insurance companies, l
ending institutions, car rental companies, product and service marketing
companies, potential employers, etc.) to evaluate an individual's driving
behavioral characteristics in a real life.

Hyundai 5G Connected Car
5G (the fifth generation mobile communications) is scheduled to launch in around
early 2020s. Even if it is not determined yet regarding the standard technology
details, many researchers expect that 5G will transfer 1000 times more data,
and thus, can connect billions of IoT (Internet of Things) devices at the same
time. Key candidate technologies that enable 5G to support IoT devices
connection are millimeter wave communication, massive MIMO
(multiple input and multiple output) technology, cloud RAN/network function
virtualization (NFV)/ software defined network (SDN), ultra dense network (UDN)
and low latency network (a maximum response rate of about 1 ms or less).
5G connected car enables real-time processing of sensor information from
surrounding vehicles for proving autonomous driving. Mass transmission
supported by the 5G can provide the big data services to the vehicle. 5G enables
direct vehicle to vehicle communication using the Device-to-Device (D2D)
connectivity. 5G can support the multihop mesh networks among many vehicles.

Hyundai 5G Connected Car -2
US20160278153 illustrates the connected car exploiting 5G multi-antenna
beamforming technique for transmitting (receiving) sensor data into (from)
a particular region or to (from) a particular vehicle. The sensor data includes
surrounding driving condition information regarding the surrounding area of
the vehicle. The sensor data also can include position and speed information
regarding the surrounding vehicles. Using the surrounding driving condition,
position, and speed information, the dynamic route guidance system can guide
drivers along the traveling route based on the dynamic traffic information.
Using the share accident-associated information, the advanced driver assistant
system can prepare potential collision by controlling the speed of the vehicle
using the advanced smart cruise control.

Vehicle Autonomous Platooning
Vehicular convoying enables vehicles to follow closely behind each other in a
convenient and safe manner. Vehicular convoying reduces the drag caused by
the substantially turbulent airflow at the rear. This drag is responsible for the
majority of fuel used in transportation, especially for heavy trucks
(fuel is about 40% of operating expenses). Vehicular convoying provides
significant fuel savings both for the lead and the trailing vehicles.
US20160054735 illustrates a system for convoying vehicles by coordinating and
controlling vehicles to follow closely behind each other.

Vehicle Autonomous Platooning -2
Vehicle Linking
A long range communication system and a central server provide a
communication link to each of vehicles. The server or an onboard computer
in each vehicle makes decisions and suggestions based on knowledge of
vehicle location, destination, load, weather, traffic conditions, vehicle type etc.
When a linking opportunity exists, the driver is notified via driver display.
The driver can manually adjust the vehicle speed to reduce the distance between
the vehicles, or the system can automatically adjust the speed
(e.g., using Adaptive Cruise Control).
Once the vehicles are sufficiently close together, a short range communications
link for communicating among the candidate vehicles causes the vehicles to
move into a linked position. The control processor in the lead vehicle
communicates its status to the control processor in the trailing vehicle,
and vice versa, to cause the vehicles to move into close proximity to one another.

Vehicle Autonomous Platooning -3
Vehicle Platooning
Vehicle control unit responsive to the short range communications link manages
vehicular functions to safely maintain a linked position among the vehicles.
During the linked, close-following mode, the system controls the engine torque
and braking, with no driver intervention required. Relative distance between the
vehicles is determined by one of RADAR, LIDAR, cameras, and precision
GPS etc. The vehicle control units, in either the lead vehicle or a following
vehicle, receive characteristics of vehicle performance in determining whether
to maintain or discontinue the linking.

Industrial IoT -3
US20160253495 illustrates s system for detecting anomalous CPS behavior
due to cyber and/or physical attacks. Traditional analysis tools are unable to
predict adequately CPS behavior because of the complexity of CPS.
The system collects information regarding the physical system dynamics from
sensors associated with the CPS (e.g., image sensors, depth cameras,
infrared and/or thermal sensors).
The system, then, classifies system behaviors and identifies the anomalous
CPS behavior by detecting a deviation from the identified system behaviors
Using a machine learning technique.

  • 9. ©2016 TechIPm, LLC All Rights Reserved www.techipm.com 9 2. IoT Frontiers Insights from Patents Self-aware Self-healing IoT Billions of interconnected devices that are connected to the internet should be self-aware and self-healing: Self-Aware Self-Healing IoT is concerned with systems that can auto-detect, analyze, and fix any issue with the IoT devices and networks without human intervention. Deployment of significant numbers of lighting devices with associated controllers and/or sensors and networking in smart cities presents increasing challenges for set-up and management of the system elements and network communication elements of the lighting system. US20150250042 illustrates the system of networked intelligent lighting devices that provides autonomous discovery and set-up at installation. The system also can provide autonomous detection of failure and fix of the failure.
  • 10. ©2016 TechIPm, LLC All Rights Reserved www.techipm.com 10 2. IoT Frontiers Insights from Patents Emotion-Aware IoT An individual's mental state is important to general well-being and effective decision making. Mental states include a wide range of emotions and experiences from happiness to sadness, from contentedness to worry, or from excitation to calm. US20140200463 illustrates the emotion-aware IoT applications by determining well-being status from an analysis of facial information and physiological information of an individual. By monitoring the well-being status of an individual, the home lighting can adjust it while turning on the favorites music automatically when a person stressed. US20130054090 illustrates the emotion-aware IoT application for providing the safe driving service system by analyzing information necessary for cognizing emotion on the basis of bio signals sensed by in-vehicle sensors.
  • 11. ©2016 TechIPm, LLC All Rights Reserved www.techipm.com 11 2. IoT Frontiers Insights from Patents Autonomous IoT The autonomous smart home system can recognize the contextual or semantic profiling of a person or place or devices (physical environment) based on sensed data by the IoT devices. The adaptable autonomous smart home system determines particular interpretation instructions (define particular IoT device control rules) that are associated with the particular physical environment and dynamically updates the control rules for changing physical environment. Qualcomm patent US9413827 is the first issued patent regarding the autonomous IoT system. The autonomous IoT system includes a variety of heterogeneous IoT devices to be able to communicate with each other. The IoT heterogeneous devices can recognize each other by virtue of a unique identifier. The autonomous IoT system detects a context of the IoT devices (e.g., space, time, location, status/events, etc.) and performs actions in response (e.g., issues a command or trigger a specific IoT device to perform a corresponding action or state change).
  • 12. ©2016 TechIPm, LLC All Rights Reserved www.techipm.com 12 2. IoT Frontiers Insights from Patents Autonomous IoT -2 For example, if the sleep monitoring device senses that a child is sleeping in a room, the autonomous IoT system makes the lighting in the room remain off. If a parent walks in to check on the child (context of the parent and child being in the same room), the autonomous IoT system triggers an action of lighting up to a 10% dimmed state. The autonomous IoT system also can recognize the context with respect to relationship among different users. For example, if person A (e.g., husband) walks into the room when a music system in the room playing the genre of music for person B (e.g., wife), the music system can switch to a music genre that both person A and person B like.
  • 13. ©2016 TechIPm, LLC All Rights Reserved www.techipm.com 13 2. IoT Frontiers Insights from Patents Augmented Reality US20150347850 illustrates an IoT AR (Augmented Reality) application in a smart home. A smart home IoT device communicates via a local network to a user AR device (e.g., smartphone) for providing the tracking data. The tracking data describes the smart home IoT device. The AR devices can recognize the smart home IoT device in the camera view based on the tracking data. Once the smart home IoT device is identified in the camera view, the AR application can augment the camera view with additional information and control interface about the smart home IoT device. The user can control the smart home IoT device using the AR device. US20140063064 illustrates an IoT AR application in a connected car. An AR head-up display in the connected car displays the overlaying a virtual image regarding the surrounding environmental information on an actual image of the external vehicle that is observed through the transparent display. The surrounding environmental information are obtained via the V2X communication system.
  • 14. ©2016 TechIPm, LLC All Rights Reserved www.techipm.com 14 2. IoT Frontiers Insights from Patents Convergence US20120120930 illustrates a vehicle network system interconnected with a home network. When a predetermined request signal is transmitted from the vehicle network system to the home network, the home network performs an operation corresponding to the request signal.

Thus, a large number of non-patent prior arts including research papers and books can be existed. Therefore, the intensive search of non-patent prior arts is needed for preparing the IoT patent. US20150019710 illustrates a good example case that intensive search of non-patent prior arts is required. US20150019710 claims a method of maintaining interoperability amongst IoT devices connected via an IoT integration platform.

Therefore, a part or whole of data aggregation, data transfer, data correlation, data analysis and services based on the data are the essential elements of the IoT inventions, and thus, the elements of the IoT patent claims. Consequently, many of IoT patents can be identified as abstract ideas because they are the certain methods of organizing human activities/mental process or fundamental economic practices or mathematical relationships/formulas unless the IoT patent claims are drafted carefully to pass the post-Alice 101 patent eligibility test.

This claim was rejected under 101 by the USPTO because the claim is directed towards the abstract idea: storing data regarding entities, classifying entities, assigning index values, monitoring usage data, modifying the index values and transmitting messages regarding services or products related to the entities based on index values. Thus, simply transferring the data through the networks or processed the data for providing services will not sufficient to transform the nature of the claimed invention into a patent-eligible claim.

This is similar to the situation that, even if there were so many innovators and entrepreneurs, only small numbers achieved commercial success from their ideas. In “The Innovator's DNA”, the authors identified the code of successful innovators that distinguishes them from others based on the case study of well known successful innovators such as Steve Jobses and Jeff Bezoses. The key lesson from the research of the innovator’s DNA was that the successful innovators’ DNA is not simply genetic traits endowed, but that they can be developed.
