Short Summary
Reolink Innovation Inc. has filed an IPR Petition challenging patents held by THROUGH TEK TECHNOLOGY regarding Peer-to-Peer (P2P) connectivity for video streaming. The petitioner argues that the challenged claims are obvious over various combinations of prior art, including Lorex Manual and Kim941.
Detailed Summary
This petition challenges 11 claims related to P2P Connectivity for Video Streaming, asserting invalidity under 35 U.S.C. § 103 (obviousness).
