Apple, obligată să plătească 5,7 miliarde de dolari companiei Taction Technology într-un proces privind brevetarea Taptic Engine

A federal jury in San Diego ruled that Apple must pay over $5.7 billion to Taction Technology for infringing on two haptic technology patents. Taction accused Apple of using its innovations without permission in devices like the iPhone and Apple Watch. Apple plans to appeal the decision, arguing that its Taptic Engine technology is fundamentally different from Taction's. The jury's verdict was reached after a trial that began on September 14, with deliberations lasting two days. Although Taction celebrated the ruling, the jury did not find Apple acted willfully in the patent infringement.
