Nintendo loses lawsuit over 3DS patent infringement

4.7
A federal jury has found Nintendo guilty of infringing on the 3D display patent of Seijiro Tomita of Tomita Technologies, awarding Tomita $30.2 million in damages.

Tomita first filed the lawsuit back in 2011 – his patent for "technology relating to displaying stereoscopic images on-screen for viewing with the naked eye, i.e., without utilizing glasses or other devices" was originally filed in 2003 and granted in 2008.

The defense attorney representing Nintendo, Scott Lindvall, argues that the Nintendo 3DS doesn’t use the key aspects of Tomita’s patent.
