What this shows Shenzhen's Innovation Score is 46.1/100 (top 21% 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 Shenzhen?

Each dot is one of Shenzhen’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). Shenzhen’s own 17.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 8.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Shenzhen's grants concentrate

Shenzhen NED Optics Co., Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G02B (Optical Elements, Systems OR Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Shenzhen sits between Shaoxing Yuanfang Semiconductor Co., Ltd. and Shuhou Co., Ltd..

Shenzhen's three-year grant acceleration

Shenzhen NED Optics Co., Ltd shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
