RETRACTED: BIO-SENSORY TECHNOLOGIES: GLOBAL DRIVERS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE FIELD DEVELOPMENT
Abstract
RETRACTED ARTICLEThe article presents the results of multi-criteria patent analysis, which describes certain features of the development in the technological field of «bio-sensory devices for measuring physiological indexes» at its current stage. The article notes that suggested technical solutions are characterized by multidisciplinary features and by a stable in-line growth of patent activity in the past two decades. An absolute technological leader in this field is theUnited States; however, in the period between 2010, and2015, arapidly growing number of patents were granted to Chinese residents. The article demonstrates that citizens ofRussian Federationexhibit a considerably lower, compared to other countries, productive activity in the area of bio-sensory devices. The Russian patent landscape, in this industrial area, is characterized by the stagnation of patent activity during the period 2014-2015, by an insignificant number of patent documents released overseas and by the absolute absence of triad patent communities. The conclusion is made that domestic capacities in this area are noncompetitive, which should be considered when choosing scientific-technological priorities of the country.
