Facebook's Oculus Hit with Virtual Reality Patent Suit

2017/04/12

Techno View IP, a California-based technology licensing company, has hit Oculus, Facebook’s virtual reality subsidiary, with a patent infringement claim.
The lawsuit, filed on April 6 at the US District Court for the District of Delaware, alleged that Oculus had incorporated a competitor’s technology into its Rift headset.
The Rift is designed to allow people to enter an immersive computer-generated environment such as a computer game or a movie scene.
According to the complaint, the patent covers the conversion of 2D images into 3D versions, with faster execution of gaming software through data compression.
