RPX’s last look at notable patent assignments considered the movement of assets to Ueran Technology LLC from Huawei; to AX Wireless, LLC from SOLiD; to VideoLabs, Inc. from DCX US Agility Platform LLC, a subsidiary of DXC Technology; to Flash Uplink LLC from its publicly traded parent Quest Patent Research Corporation (QPRC); to various entities from Ascend Innovation Management, LLC entities; and to Nera Innovations Limited from multiple entities associated with Atlantic IP Services. It is time for a review of additional notable transfers recorded since then.

In a new case filed in the Middle District of Florida, Proxicom Wireless, LLC has accused Macy’s (6:18-cv-00064) of infringing four wireless communications patents through provision in its stores of “beacon technology”. The accused in-store system allegedly has customers with the Macy’s app (or a third party app) installed on smartphones interacting with a central server via “Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology” to, for example, receive messages or information about the store or items for sale nearby.
