This page lists patents where Thomas Walker Lynch is officially listed as an inventor. For many he is the sole inventor, for some he is listed as the first inventor and there are co-inventors. For a few of the older ones Thomas is among the inventors. Patent numbers and links are given for all of these. A few of the patents listed have 200 numbers indicating that they are published patent applications.

Here is a valuation context that treats each patent cluster as if it had been developed into a focused startup and then benchmarked against real market comparables. It is intended to show the scale of the industries touched by the work, not to claim realized revenue.
