Nikon Corporation et al.vsOptimum Imaging Technologies LLC

Nikon, Panasonic, Olympus, Fujifilm and others settled their IPR dispute with Optimum Imaging Technologies, jointly moving to terminate the proceeding under 35 U.S.C. §317.

Valve CorporationvsImmersion Corporation

Valve Corporation successfully convinced the PTAB to institute an IPR, challenging Immersion Corporation's patent claims related to haptic feedback systems. The Board found preliminary evidence suggesting that prior art references (Banerjee, Meglan, Rogers) anticipate or render obvious key elements of the asserted claims.

Apple Inc.vsSmith Interface Technologies, LLC

The PTAB issued a Final Written Decision on the IPR, finding claims 30 and 62 unpatentable while upholding the patentability of claims 1, 32, 34, and 64. The Board clarified that 'the gesture' must refer to a single input with a common starting point, rejecting the Petitioner’s argument for multiple gestures.

Micron Technology, Inc. et al.vsYangtze Memory Technologies Company, Ltd.

The PTAB issued a Final Written Decision denying the petitioner's arguments that claims 1-6 of patent 11468957 were unpatentable. The Board found the anticipation argument failed because Suzuki did not disclose a distinct 'pre-verify stage,' and obviousness arguments failed due to insufficient establishment of required elements over prior art combinations.
