Lawsuit Launched Against Garmin for Patent Infringement Related to Wristwatch Touchscreens

Slyde Analytics LLC, a non-practicing entity, has filed a lawsuit against Garmin Ltd., accusing the company of infringing on their patents related to wristwatch touchscreens and other watch technology. The lawsuit was filed in the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, where it is currently being examined.

Garmin is accused of violating Patent 9,651,922, which outlines a method for a wristwatch to detect fingers and interpret touch signals. This claim is based on Garmin’s production and sale of smartwatches with a digital display. The case seeks damages for the alleged infringement.

The patents in question generally pertain to methods and apparatuses related to wristwatches with a digital display. Slyde owns nine patents that are outlined in the complaint. Garmin has yet to provide a statement regarding the lawsuit and its allegations. The matter will be further examined and decided upon by the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas.
