As linked on tecnology news portal, on the beggining of this month (December, 4), the company ImmerVision, a Canadian technology company specializing in images processing, filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the american company Apple claiming that the company had incorporated its invention to the devices Iphone 11, Iphone 12 mini, Iphone 13 pro max and even the Ipad.
The patent object of the lawsuit was filed in May, 2002 on the USPTO and concerns a method for capturing and displaying a digital panoramic image of variable resolution.
Thus, the ultra-angular sensor used in the Apple’s cameras would be considered an infringement of the Canadian company’s patent.
On the lawsuit, ImmerVision requires a compensation and an order to block the use of its patent in the future.
The lawsuit was filed in federal court in Wilmington, State of Delaware/USA and the Defendant Apple has not ruled on the matter yet.
