What this shows Hyosung's Innovation Score is 49.5/100 (top 15% 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 Hyosung?

Each dot is one of Hyosung’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). Hyosung’s own 6.8 claims/patent is at or below the 15.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Hyosung's grants concentrate

Hyosung TNS Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 44.8% of grants classified under G07F (Coin-freed OR Like Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (14 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Hyosung sits between Fujitsu Client Computing Limited and IGT Global Soulutions Corporation.

Hyosung's three-year grant acceleration

Hyosung TNS Inc. shows 36 grants in 2022–2024 against only 16 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.
