Lonestar Biometrics LLC has filed its first litigation, suing OnePlus (2:22-cv-00239), Samsung (2:22-cv-00240), TCL (2:22-cv-00241), and ZTE (2:22-cv-00242) over the provision of smartphones “with optical fingerprint scanners embedded beneath the display screen”, calling out the OnePlus 10 Pro, Samsung Galaxy S21 FE, TCL 20 Pro, and ZTE Axon 30 Ultra, respectively. The plaintiff identifies as its corporate parent an entity familiar to patent monetization; however, the source of the three asserted patents suggests that the new Lonestar Biometrics campaign marks a bit of a departure for that corporate parent.
