What this shows Sensor's Innovation Score is 58.2/100 (top 5% 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 Sensor?
Each dot is one of Sensor’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). Sensor’s own 20.0 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
How Sensor's grant cadence moved
Between 2020–2024, Sensor Electronic Technology, Inc. received 85 grants versus 227 in 2015–2019 (-63% equal-window velocity, below median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2017 at 60 grants and bottomed in 2022 at 7. Lead class H10H accounts for 50.3% of the portfolio across 83 subclasses. Volume neighbours: III Holdings 12, LLC (#1,340) and Sumitomo Osaka Cement Co., Ltd. (#1,348).
Sensor's three-year grant acceleration
From 2019–2021 to 2022–2024, Sensor Electronic Technology, Inc. moved from 120 to 24 grants (0.20x the prior three-year total, a multiple, not a CAGR). Among 3,296 tracked assignees with ≥100 grants and ≥20 prior-period grants, that multiple ranks #3,092. See the growth leaderboard.
