Immervision Wins Patent Challenge Against LG Electronics
2.6.2021 00:24:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Immervision, inventor of wide-angle optical design with distortion control and leader in designing advanced vision systems, today announced it has successfully defended its patent against challenges made by LG Electronics.
In November 2019, LG petitioned the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, challenging the validity of one of Immervision’s key patents (U.S. Patent No. 6,844,990). However, several weeks ago, the board (PTAB) unanimously ruled that the claims LG challenged were not unpatentable over the cited prior art references.
“Immervision has spent the past two decades innovating, licensing, and implementing its vision technologies to multiple industries,” said Pascale Nini, President and Chief Executive at Immervision. “Immervision’s intellectual property and patent portfolio represent true innovation and are defendable. It is very important for me that we can protect our customers and world-wide licensees with our IP.”
In 2018, Immervision filed a civil complaint against LG for patent infringement over several Smartphone models with wide-angle camera technology. LG responded by challenging the validity of Immervision’s patent at the United States Patent and Trademark Office. The PTAB panel confirmed that LG had not met its burden to show the challenged claims were unpatentable.
Immervision’s advanced wide-angle vision system combining optics, image processing, and sensor fusion technology are used in various applications, spanning consumer electronics, transportation, robotics, security, home devices to IoT, and defense, among others. When Immervision develops an optical design, the company defines specifications to obtain smarter pixels combined with image processing that will give the best results for the application.
With DNA of innovation in machine vision, the company is now thinking about the future of machine perception connecting visual data and other sensors to feed AI.

Exein and Deutsche Telekom IoT Partner to Secure the Next Generation of Connected Devices7.10.2026 09:00:00 EEST | Press release
Exein, a global leader in physical AI and runtime security, today announced a strategic partnership with Deutsche Telekom IoT to bring integrated security to connected devices across Deutsche Telekom IoT’s ecosystem. With its own transatlantic network and around 600 roaming and satellite partners, Deutsche Telekom IoT provides worldwide connectivity for customers across industries and markets. The partnership pairs Exein's device-level security with Deutsche Telekom IoT’s global connectivity capabilities, addressing a gap that is becoming more urgent as intelligent, business-critical applications move directly onto devices operating in the field — robots, drones and industrial machines acting autonomously and making decisions in the physical world. Exein's security technology already protects more than two billion devices globally, across sectors including automotive, robotics, energy and industrial manufacturing. Its latest runtime architecture, Photon, operates at kernel level to blo
Stop Hoping for Secure AI and Start Building It: RSA Agent ID Closes the Agentic Identity Gap for Highly Regulated Industries7.10.2026 07:00:00 EEST | Press release
At World Summit AI in the Netherlands, RSA, the identity standard for government agencies, finance, and high-assurance organizations, today announced RSA Agent ID, the agentic identity security platform for highly-regulated industries.
