FujiFilm North America Corp. has requested a federal judge to confirm that the image-distortion correction features in their digital cameras do not violate patented technology owned by a California inventor. The camera maker was sued by Optimum Imaging Technologies LLC last year for alleged patent infringement, and FujiFilm NA is now seeking a declaratory judgment to clarify that their products do not infringe any patents.
Optimum Imaging Technologies LLC initiated the lawsuit against FujiFilm NA in May 2019, accusing the camera maker of violating their patented technology related to image-distortion correction features in digital cameras. Neal Solomon, the founder of Optimum Imaging Technologies, had accused FujiFilm NA of using his technology without obtaining a license.
FujiFilm NA claims that they have the right to manufacture and sell digital cameras with the digital lens aberration correction technology without needing a license from Optimum Imaging Technologies LLC. According to the company, their products do not infringe any patents owned by the plaintiff. They are seeking legal clarification to show that their products are not infringing on any patents owned by Optimum Imaging Technologies LLC.
The lawsuit has raised questions about whether FujiFilm NA’s use of digital lens aberration correction technology constitutes patent infringement or if it is considered a fair use under copyright law. The outcome of this case could set precedent for future disputes involving similar technologies in the photography industry.
In conclusion, FujiFilm North America Corp. is seeking legal clarification from a federal judge to confirm that their digital cameras’ image-distortion correction features do not violate patented technology owned by Optimum Imaging Technologies LLC. This case raises important questions about patent infringement and fair use in the photography industry, and its outcome could have significant implications for future disputes involving similar technologies.
