What this shows Vision's Innovation Score is 36.5/100 (top 46% 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.

Where Vision's grants concentrate

Vision Engineering is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 55.6% of grants classified under G02B (Optical Elements, Systems OR Apparatus). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Vision sits between Viconic Sporting LLC and Voltea B.V..

Vision's three-year grant acceleration

Vision Engineering shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
