What this shows Teledyne's Innovation Score is 67.5/100 (top 1% 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 Teledyne?

Each dot is one of Teledyne’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). Teledyne’s own 18.0 claims/patent is at or below the 18.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Teledyne's grants concentrate

Teledyne Flir Commercial Systems, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 40 CPC subclasses with 58.1% of grants classified under H04N (Pictorial Communication, e.g. Television). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (28 grants) versus a trough of 5 in 2023. By volume, Teledyne sits between Synthetic Genomics, Inc. and Wildcat Discovery Technologies, Inc..

Teledyne's three-year grant acceleration

Teledyne Flir Commercial Systems, Inc. shows 39 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
