What this shows Pacific's Innovation Score is 47.6/100 (top 18% 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 Pacific?

Each dot is one of Pacific’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). Pacific’s own 29.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Pacific's grants concentrate

Pacific Light & Hologram, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 69.2% of grants classified under G09G (Arrangements OR Circuits FOR Control OF Indicating Devices Using Static Means TO Present Variable Information). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Pacific sits between Oxford Instruments Nanotechnology Tools Limited and Rawles LLC.

Pacific's three-year grant acceleration

Pacific Light & Hologram, Inc. shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
