Extensions — US Patent 11698687

To accurately detail patent term adjustments (PTA), patent term extensions (PTE), continuation/divisional applications, related family members, and the projected expiration date for US patent 11698687, direct access to the USPTO's Patent Center or Public PAIR system would typically be required. The provided search results offer general information on how these factors are determined but do not contain the specific data for US11698687 itself. The USPTO does not calculate expiration dates for patents publicly, but provides tools and guidance for doing so.

However, based on the provided patent text and general rules of patent term:

Standard Patent Term: For utility patents filed on or after June 8, 1995, the term generally begins on the issue date and ends 20 years from the earliest filing date of the application or any earlier application to which it claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §§ 120, 121, or 365(c).
- US11698687 claims priority to:
  - U.S. application Ser. No. 16/953,771 (Filing Date: 2020-11-20)
  - U.S. application Ser. No. 15/611,970 (Filed: Jun. 2, 2017)
  - U.S. application Ser. No. 13/072,794 (Filed: Mar. 28, 2011, now U.S. Pat. No. 9,760,186)
  - U.S. application Ser. No. 12/943,934 (Filed: Nov. 11, 2010, now U.S. Pat. No. 8,441,438)
  - U.S. application Ser. No. 61/292,558 (Filed: Jan. 6, 2010 - this is a provisional application)
The earliest non-provisional filing date to which US11698687 claims benefit is November 11, 2010 (U.S. application Ser. No. 12/943,934). Therefore, the base 20-year term would be 20 years from November 11, 2010, which is November 11, 2030.
Patent Term Adjustment (PTA): PTA compensates applicants for certain delays by the USPTO during patent prosecution. These delays include:
- Failure to issue a first Office Action or notice of allowance within 14 months of filing.
- Failure to issue an action within four months of an applicant's response.
- Failure to issue a patent within four months of payment of the issue fee.
- Failure to issue a patent within three years of the actual filing date (excluding applicant-caused delays).
  The PTA calculation is performed at the time of patent issuance and is included in the Issue Notification Letter. Without direct access to the USPTO's Patent Center or the Issue Notification Letter for US11698687, the specific PTA for this patent cannot be determined.
Patent Term Extension (PTE): PTE is available for patents on certain human drugs, food or color additives, medical devices, animal drugs, and veterinary biological products to restore time lost due to regulatory review before commercial marketing or use. Since US11698687 relates to an "Electronic device for use in motion detection," it is highly unlikely to be eligible for PTE, as it does not fall into these categories.
Continuation Applications: The patent states that "This application is a continuation application, which claims the benefit of and priority to U.S. application Ser. No. 15/611,970, filed on Jun. 2, 2017, which claims the benefit of and priority to U.S. application Ser. No. 13/072,794, filed on Mar. 28, 2011 (now U.S. Pat. No. 9,760,186, issued on Sep. 12, 2017), which is a continuation in part of and claims the priority benefit of U.S. application Ser. No. 12/943,934, filed on Nov. 11, 2010, now patented as U.S. Pat. No. 8,441,438, issued on May 14, 2013, which claims the priority benefit of U.S. application Ser. No. 61/292,558, filed on Jan. 6, 2010." This clearly outlines a chain of continuation and continuation-in-part applications.
Divisional Applications: The patent text does not explicitly mention any divisional applications.

Projected Expiration Date: Based on the earliest non-provisional filing date of November 11, 2010, the anticipated expiration date is November 11, 2030. This is consistent with the "Anticipated expiration" date noted in the Google Patents information for US11698687B2. This date would be adjusted by any PTA. Without the specific PTA value, the exact expiration date cannot be definitively calculated, but the Google Patents information provides a strong indicator.
