AutoBrilliance, LLC has sued Honda (2:22-cv-00338) and Nissan (2:22-cv-00337) over one of the three patents that it began litigating back in September 2019. The asserted patent generally relates to a “sensor alignment system” in vehicles. Targeted is the provision of automobiles equipped with sensors and certain related safety and driver assistance technologies. This additional round of litigation follows successful attacks on the other two patents-in-campaign, one via inter partes review (IPR) and the other via ex parte reexamination.

So far in May, InnoMemory, LLC has added one case to each of its two litigation campaigns. In the first, the Texas plaintiff sued Kyocera (Kyocera Document Solutions America) (3:22-cv-01061) over the provision of certain printers in the Northern District of Texas. In its second, InnoMemory sued KIOXIA (6:22-cv-00479) over the provision of certain solid state drives, this time in West Texas. The two suits share analogous accusations (targeting the inclusion of Nanya Technology memory modules within the accused products), litigation counsel (experienced plaintiff-side firm Ni, Wang & Massand, PLLC), and a disclosure statement indicating that InnoMemory has no “parent corporation” (and that no publicly held corporation owns ten percent or more of its stock). However, such a disclosure does not appear to comply with the local rules of the Northern District of Texas.

Texas NPE InnoBrilliance, LLC has initiated a second litigation campaign, suing Sony (6:21-cv-00094) over five patents generally related to displaying multiple video streams on a “television system”. The accused product is the Sony Playstation Vue Multiview software system “for use with PlayStation devices and Apple TV devices”, which permits simultaneous streaming of multiple channels. Based on InnoBrilliance’s patent holdings and past litigation activities, as well as those of entities under the same management, this campaign will not likely be InnoBrilliance’s last.
