What this shows Tucson's Innovation Score is 30.2/100 (34th percentile 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 Tucson?

Each dot is one of Tucson’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). Tucson’s own 16.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 13.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Tucson's grants concentrate

Tucson Embedded Systems, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F04D (Non-positive-displacement Pumps). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Tucson sits between True Brands Limited and Uberfan, LLC.

Tucson's three-year grant acceleration

Tucson Embedded Systems, Inc. shows 1 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.
