LBT IP II LLC has taken over the campaign that fellow Location Based Technologies, Inc. plaintiff LBT IP I LLC launched in July 2019, suing Uber (6:21-cv-01210) in the Western District of Texas. The plaintiff asserts four patents, each new to litigation and broadly directed to location tracking systems. The defendant is accused of infringement through the provision of its ride-hailing and delivery services, with features for transmitting location data between drivers and users at issue.

LBT IP I LLC has filed a District of Delaware suit against Apple (1:19-cv-01245) over five patents generally related to portable location-tracking devices. The plaintiff targets the provision of iPads and iPhones, with iOS battery management features (e.g., low power mode and related features that reduce power consumption based on the device’s tracked location or whether the device has been placed face down on a surface) at issue. A board member of Southern California-headquartered Location Based Technologies, Inc. has signed for LBT IP I as its manager and president.
