Systems and Methods for Crash Determination
US 10,055,909
Cited by 30 later US patents, top 10% of utility patents granted in 2018 in our data, and renewed at every maintenance window due so far. Protection runs to 2036.
Systems and Methods for Impact Detection with Noise Attenuation of a Sensor Signal
US 10,214,166
Cited by 25 later US patents, top 10% of utility patents granted in 2019 in our data, and renewed at 2 of 3 maintenance windows. Protection runs to 2035.
Systems and Methods for 3-Axis Accelerometer Calibration with Vertical Sample Buffers
US 9,459,277
Cited by 44 later US patents, top 10% of utility patents granted in 2016 in our data, and renewed at every maintenance window due so far. Protection runs to 2034. A terminal disclaimer is on file and its reference is not resolved, so no cap is applied and the date may move earlier, never later.
Fee deadlines
Maintenance fees fall due 3.5, 7.5 and 11.5 years after grant. A missed fee ends a patent at the end of the six month grace period that follows, not on the due date.

Sources and methods
Compiled from USPTO application file histories, grants and recorded assignments, with the company's own names reviewed by hand. How this record was built
Portfolio grouped automatically from ownership conveyances to the names matched to this company, usually every name that begins with its own, so it counts patents an affiliate holds; each list row names the holder of record. Security interests are excluded and ambiguous records are not reviewed by hand.
Fee due within 90 days marks a patent with a maintenance fee due within 90 days of the date this page was computed and not yet recorded paid, so it can end earlier than the bar shows. A fee left unpaid ends the patent at the close of the six month grace period that follows its due date, not on the due date itself. It is not a prediction that the fee will be missed.
Computed patent terms end on the dates shown. Related patents and pending applications may cover overlapping subject matter.
