New Oura lawsuit threatens to once again disrupt smart ring market
Smart ring maker Oura filed a lawsuit in Texas federal court against rival Ultrahuman, alleging that the Ring Pro infringes two of its patents related to design and internal hardware. Oura previously won a patent dispute that resulted in Ultrahuman's Ring Air being removed from the US market. Ultrahuman has since released the Ring Pro with a redesigned heart-rate sensor and two-week battery life. The new lawsuit seeks to ban the Ring Pro's sale and recover damages.
Key points
- Oura alleges Ring Pro violates patents D804,471 and 12,769,363
- Prior lawsuit forced Ultrahuman's Ring Air off US shelves
- Ultrahuman says it will respond and Ring Pro remains available
