Samsung & Sharp patent related news from www.htlounge.net, leave your comments below:
On February 8, 2010, Samsung announced its cross-licensing deal with Sharp, which leads to the end of a series of conflicts between the two companies. According to the electronics manufacturer, this deal gives each of the two the right to use technology patented by the other. The company has not mentioned anything about the financial terms of this deal.
Samsung and Sharp are angry on each other and have complained to the US International Trade Commission in 2007. The conflict refers mainly to the use of a certain LCD technology used in screens with wide viewing angles. In June 2009, ITC has issued a decision, which was favorable to Samsung. Therefore, some of Sharp’s HD LCD TVs have been banned from USA’s market. As an effect, in December 2009, Samsung has filed another suit.
The recent deal between the two companies is meant to cancel all ITC’s decisions, including the one made in June 2009.
