This guy's invention got U.S. Patent No. 10 million ;
"Today marks a milestone of in the American innovation economy. Back in 1836, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office issued patent No.1
under the current numbering system. It took 155 years to get up to
patent No. 5 million and then just another 27 years to issue 5 million
more. Patent number No. 10 million was
issued this afternoon for something called "Coherent Ladar Using
Intra-Pixel Quadrature Detection." The technology is owned by Raytheon,
and it was invented by Joseph Marron, a principal engineering fellow at
the company's Space and Airborne Systems division. He talked with
Marketplace host Kai Ryssdal about his invention. The following is an
edited transcript of their conversation..."

10 million patents: A celebration of American innovation
"On June 19, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office will issue patent number 10 million—a remarkable achievement for the United States of America and our agency. More than just a number, this patent represents one of ten million steps on a continuum of human accomplishment launched when our Founding Fathers provided for intellectual property protection in Article 1, Section 8, Clause 8 of our Constitution.
Appropriately, patent number 10 million will be the first issued with a new patent cover design, which we unveiled in March at South by Southwest in Austin, Texas. It was created by a team of USPTO graphic designers including Rick Heddleston, Theresa Verigan, and led by Jeff Isaacs."

"The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) will issue the 10 millionth utility patent in summer 2018. This milestone of human ingenuity perhaps exceeds even the Founding Fathers’ expectations when they called for a patent system in the Constitution to “promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts.” Follow the timeline below for important moments, notable inventors, changing patent designs, and other interesting facts over more than two centuries of innovation in America."
