Daniel Perez’s Fleet Tracking Campaign Snags Four More Defendants

The fleet tracking campaign of Orthosie Systems, LLC, a Texas-based NPE controlled by Daniel F. Perez, has expanded to include four additional defendants: Applus Technologies (4:17-cv-00080), Fortive (4:17-cv-00109), Mix Telematics (4:17-cv-00111), and US Fleet Tracking (4:17-cv-00095). The new complaints assert the same single patent (7,430,471) at issue in the other cases in the campaign, which now number close to three dozen. The ‘471 patent generally relates to vehicle monitoring, and the accused products are the defendants’ hardware and software systems that use GPS to track the locations of vehicles and other assets.
