Patent assignments recently made public by the USPTO continue to flesh out the spread of Monterey Research, LLC’s portfolio of former Cypress Semiconductor patents. Those records also note a batch of former Mitsubishi Electric (MELCO) patents changing hands, from a plaintiff passing the baton after its own litigation over the portfolio ended last June. A research operation tied to a European university has also offloaded some US computer architecture patents to suggestive hands, while the path of a portfolio of geofencing (and other mobile technology) patents seems to echo a route that previously led to litigation—litigation involving a jury award for that plaintiff as well as a shift of attorney fees to the plaintiff. Finally, an individual inventor has moved a family of peer-to-peer payments patents in a direction that could signal future monetization.
