Patent case between Java Enterprise and LEAP Inc.
In 2010, I [Hussam Javaid] came up with an idea to
create a device that allows people to control their digital device from a
specific distance by using their motion. I searched on the internet whether
such devices exist or is someone working on it, but found none. I decided to
share my idea with an old friend Khurram Abas Khan with whom I use to work with
on small project in college. A NDA was sign between us and we started working
on the prototype.
Thus in 2012, we [Hussam Javaid and Khurram Abas
Khan] founded a company by the name of Java Enterprise with its first
successful prototype launched called P3C-armband that allow user to control all
operation and other feature without touching their Desktop computer or Laptop.
After the successful launched of our product, we submitted an application to
Pakistan Patent and Trademark Office (PPTO) to patent our product. 6 months
later we got the patent of our product and the serial number of our product is
PN #9 415 271.
In starting month of 2013, Java Enterprise
collaborated with Fujitsu Co. Japan leading IT Company and a MOU was signed by
both Organizations. Java and Fujitsu started working on a update version of the
P3C-armband that allow user not just control PC other thing such as their T.V,
music player, car, toy helicopter, playing game without using analog controller
etc. On 4 July 2013, the update version of P3C-armband was released. On the
first day of the opening P3C-armband hit the global market with 7% market share
and still rising. By the end of the first week we made 82.5 $ Billion and our
share in the market were 14% up and our product demands started rising
worldwide.
In the staring of 2014, our market share started to
drop putting our company at great risk of going out of business. The matter was
related to LEAP Inc and their partner HP that launched their product Leap
motion devices. Leap motion device allows user to control their digital device
by reading their hands and finger motion. We suspected that LEAP Inc was infringing
in our product and we thought that they were using our EMG sensors and nine-axis
IMU’s modified version of our software. Although
we had no proof that they were using software. But we believe that there was no
other way for the Leap motion to detect the hand and finger motion without
using EMG sensors and nine-axis IMU’s software. We filed a petition case against
the LEAP Inc for software theft. The International criminal court petition
accepted our case.
A jury trial will began in December 2014 and specialist
programmers will be called to check the owner ship of the software program.
