Ag Equipment Condition Monitoring Patent Snapshot
The formal patent corpus for agricultural equipment condition monitoring is extremely small, with only 3 patent families in scope, all filed in India and concentrated in 2025–2026. Activity is nascent and highly fragmented, with no single institutional leader holding more than one patent record.
A nascent, highly fragmented field with no dominant institutional player
The searchable corpus currently contains 3 patent families, with the top-ranked applicant, Mr. Sonu Jain, holding 1 patent record — the same count as every other applicant in the ranking. No single entity has established a commanding position.
The top five filers collectively account for 50% of the ranked applicants visible in this query’ combined total, but given the corpus size this reflects equal distribution across individual inventors and one academic institution rather than a meaningful concentration advantage.

The absence of any corporate incumbent or repeated institutional filer suggests this topic has not yet attracted organized R&D investment from established agricultural-equipment manufacturers. The field remains open to early movers who can establish foundational claims.
The most recent filings (2025–2026) are subject to publication lag and likely under-represent true activity levels; the corpus should be treated as a lower bound on current global effort. Longer-window growth, applicant concentration, and technology-route coverage are therefore more reliable signals than the latest-year bar alone.
Filing activity emerged only in 2025, concentrated in control-systems and AI branches
All recorded activity falls within 2025–2026, signaling a very early-stage field. The technology composition is dominated by control and regulating systems, with secondary presence in AI-based computing and image processing.
Annual filing trend
Zero filings were recorded in every year from 2017 through 2024; 2 records appear in 2025 and 1 in 2026. The 2026 figure is subject to publication lag and likely undercounts current activity — no trend conclusion should be drawn from a single year’s partial data.

G05B (Control & regulating systems) is the visible branch, covering all 3 patent records. G06N (AI models) appears in 2 records, while A01B (soil working in agriculture), A61B (diagnosis and surgery), G06T (image data processing), and H04L (digital information transmission) each appear in 1 record, indicating early-stage cross-domain experimentation rather than a settled technical approach.

The present invention relates to an AI-driven X-ray imaging system for farm tractor tire health diagnostics, enabling non-destructive detection of internal defects such as tread separation, sidewall bulges, ply delamination, and bead wire fractures. The system integrates X-ray radiography with machine learning algorithms to automate defect identification… (excerpt from the patent abstract)

Assignee snapshot from the current evidence set
The applicants below are visible in this query result. Because the evidence set is relatively small, read this section as a directional snapshot rather than a full competitive ranking.
Mr. Sonu Jain
Mr. Sonu Jain holds 1 patent record, placing him at the top of the ranking solely by virtue of filing first alongside peers at equal count. His technology focus spans G05B 13, G05B 19, and G05B 23 — adaptive control, programmable control, and condition monitoring within the control-systems branch. No momentum data is available.
patent records: 1Sri Manakula Vinayagar Engineering College
Sri Manakula Vinayagar Engineering College is the only institutional (non-individual) applicant in the corpus, also holding 1 patent record. Its focus covers G05B 15, G05B 19, and G05B 23 — process control, programmable systems, and fault monitoring — making it the sole academic entity in this landscape. No momentum data is available.
patent records: 1Frequently asked questions
The current corpus contains 3 patent families in scope. This is an extremely small corpus, and the figure should be treated as a lower bound given publication lag on recent filings.
All 3 patent records on file are registered with the Indian patent office. No filings from the United States, Europe, China, or via the PCT route appear in the current evidence.
Mr. Sonu Jain holds the top position in the ranking with 1 patent record, tied with all other applicants. Sri Manakula Vinayagar Engineering College is the only institutional filer currently on record.
G05B (Control and regulating systems) covers all 3 patent records. G06N (AI-based computing) appears in 2 records, while A01B, A61B, G06T, and H04L each appear in 1 record, reflecting early-stage technical experimentation.
No co-applicant or collaborative filing activity has been detected in the current corpus. All applicants appear to be filing independently as individuals or single institutions.
Given the absence of corporate incumbents and the concentration of existing filings in G05B control systems, adjacent branches — particularly G06T image processing and H04L connectivity — represent sparsely filed areas with plausible technical relevance. Filing in India alone would provide immediate visibility in the only active jurisdiction, but PCT coverage would be advisable to establish broader priority rights.

Patent data carries inherent limitations: recent filings (typically the most recent 18–24 months) are under-counted due to standard publication lag; counts may be reported at either a patent-family or a patent-record basis and are not always directly comparable; classification, applicant-name, and citation data may contain errors, duplicates, or omissions; and the underlying search query defines and constrains the scope shown. As a result, the analysis may be incomplete or inaccurate and may not reflect the full technology landscape.
