Long Corner Consumer Electronics LLC v. Datalogic ADC, Inc.

Kevique Technology LLC has filed another wave in the long-running litigation over a single patent (7,808,483) generally related to moving graphical objects displayed on the screen of a device in response to movement of that device. The new defendants are Alco Electronics (2:17-cv-00086), JLT Mobile Computers (2:17-cv-00087), Juniper Systems (2:17-cv-00088), Lexibook (2:17-cv-00089), Linsay Digital Technology (2:17-cv-00090), NVIDIA (2:17-cv-00091), PLR IP Holdings (d/b/a Polaroid) (2:17-cv-00092), Razer (2:17-cv-00093), SOFTBANK (Sprint) (2:17-cv-00094), and T-Mobile (2:17-cv-00095). At issue in the campaign are devices with touchscreens and orientation sensors; for these latest defendants, smartphones and tablet computers that they manufacture and/or sell. (The accused product identified in the complaints against Sprint and T-Mobile is a different Kyocera smartphone.) Kevique appears to be an affiliate of patent monetization firm IP Edge LLC, which began this campaign through a separate entity, Long Corner Consumer Electronics LLC (LCCE), over three years ago.

One year to the day after filing its last round of litigation, Long Corner Consumer Electronics LLC (LCCE) filed suit against Blu Products, Datalogic ADC, Double Power Technology, Leapfrog Technology, Motion Computing, MSI Computer, Spectralink, Trimble Navigation, Unitech, and Verizon. LCCE’s campaign asserts a patent related to moving graphical objects displayed on the screen of a device in response to movement of that device (7,808,483). The complaints accuse devices with a touchscreen and an orientation sensor.
