What this shows Shine's Innovation Score is 50.5/100 (top 13% 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 Shine?

Each dot is one of Shine’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). Shine’s own 13.1 claims/patent is at or below the 17.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Shine's grants concentrate

Shine Optoelectronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under G02B (Optical Elements, Systems OR Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (5 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2020. By volume, Shine sits between SemiLEDs Optoelectronics Co., Ltd. and Soilgenic Technologies, LLC.

Shine's three-year grant acceleration

Shine Optoelectronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
