Futek Advanced Sensor Technology
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 9 technology areas, recorded in grant years 2016–2024. Grant-trend analysis is cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search; it does not measure application filings, current R&D, or legal strength. Primary class: G01L (Measuring Force, Stress, Torque, Work, Mechanical Power, Mechanical Efficiency, OR Fluid Pressure).

What this shows Futek's Innovation Score is 26.3/100 (20th percentile of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.
Does more volume mean deeper claims for Futek?
Each dot is one of Futek’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). Futek’s own 6.4 claims/patent is at or below the 11.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Futek's grants concentrate
Futek Advanced Sensor Technology is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 81.8% of grants classified under G01L (Measuring Force, Stress, Torque, Work, Mechanical Power, Mechanical Efficiency, OR Fluid Pressure). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Futek sits between Fulham Company Limited and Feiloli Electronic Co., Ltd..
Futek's three-year grant acceleration
Futek Advanced Sensor Technology shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
