Immersion Files a Lawsuit Against Meta for Allegedly Copying its VR Tech

Immersion has accused Meta of infringing on 6 of its patents for their AR/VR products, including the Meta Quest 2, which has comparable characteristics, according to a source. For the piracy, the corporation is demanding a royalty from Meta. The following are the six patents presented in the lawsuit:

US Patent no 10,664,143 US Patent no 10,269,222 US Patent no 10,248,298 US Patent no 9,727,217 US Patent no 8,896,806

Smaller tech companies have previously sued major corporations such as Apple, Google, Microsoft, Samsung, Sony, and others for patent infringement. The majority of these have always been resolved without going to court. Immersion’s chief executive, Francis Jose, stated that while the company is thrilled with Meta’s next-gen vision to create a Metaverse, it is critical for Immersion to protect its intellectual property to the extent where litigation is required. With the developing technologies of Metaverse and Web3.0, every technology giant is investing billions in R&D to gain a competitive advantage. So, it is pertinent to mention here that the next generation of Augmented and Mixed Reality gadgets is at the forefront of all R&D.
