What this shows Lumentum's Innovation Score is 38.5/100 (top 41% 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 Lumentum?

Each dot is one of Lumentum’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). Lumentum’s own 18.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Lumentum's grants concentrate

Lumentum Technology UK Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 48.3% of grants classified under G02B (Optical Elements, Systems OR Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (8 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2019. By volume, Lumentum sits between LifeScan, Inc. and Matscitechno Licensing Company.

Lumentum's three-year grant acceleration

Lumentum Technology UK Limited shows 10 grants in 2022–2024 against only 18 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.
