Does more volume mean deeper claims for Digital?
Each dot is one of Digital’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Digital’s own 18.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.1 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Digital's grants concentrate
Digital Vision, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 57.1% of grants classified under G02C (SPECTACLES; Sunglasses OR Goggles Insofar AS They Have THE Same Features AS SPECTACLES; Contact Lenses). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Digital sits between Didimo, Inc. and Discure Technologies Ltd.
Digital's three-year grant acceleration
Digital Vision, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
