Infinova Corporation

I'll research this company to build an accurate profile.

Let me verify the ownership relationship and the litigation context.

Infinova Corporation — Company Profile

Overview. Infinova Corporation is a US-based manufacturer of electronic security and video surveillance equipment, headquartered at 51 Stouts Lane, Monmouth Junction, New Jersey. The business traces to 1993–94, when Dr. Jeffrey Liu founded what became the Infinova Group; the Shenzhen operating arm, Shenzhen Infinova Limited (英飞拓), listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in December 2010 under ticker 002528.SZ. Sourcing on the exact corporate tree is inconsistent: some filings describe Shenzhen Infinova Ltd. as an indirect parent of the US operations with global headquarters in New Jersey, while other databases list Infinova Corporation as private. No verified employee or revenue figure is available; LeadIQ estimates roughly 170 employees, and an IPVM forum post cited ~$153M in 2013 revenue and an $800M market cap, which is dated third-party data, not a company disclosure.

Products and operations. Infinova designs and manufactures integrated video surveillance systems, selling both IP and analog/hybrid product lines that coexist with legacy CCTV infrastructure. Its portfolio includes HD and megapixel IP cameras, PTZ dome and specialized explosion-proof cameras, network video recorders, matrix switchers, fiber-optic transmission equipment, access control systems, and video management software (notably the V2216/V2217 VMS), plus video analytics and traffic, retail, and critical-infrastructure solutions. The company has marketed itself as "the integrator's manufacturer," selling through integrators and channel partners.

Corporate history and brands. Infinova (Canada) Ltd., an indirect subsidiary, acquired March Networks Corporation of Ottawa for about C$90.1 million in 2011–12; Swann Communications was acquired in 2014. A 2026 transaction would transfer the India business, brand rights, and an assembly facility to Creative Newtech.

Patent-litigation posture. Infinova is an operating company, not an NPE. The database shows exactly one tracked case, with Infinova as defendant and zero as plaintiff — the classic profile of a product company targeted by an assertion entity. In Cedar Lane Technologies Inc. v. Infinova Corporation (D. Del., No. 1:21-cv-00648, filed May 5, 2021, before Judge Richard G. Andrews), Canadian NPE Cedar Lane asserted U.S. Patents 6,972,790; 8,537,242; 8,165,867; and 6,924,832 — imaging and image-processing patents originating with Intellectual Ventures. Cedar Lane voluntarily dismissed the case on June 22, 2021. The suit targeted the kind of camera and imaging products Infinova manufactures.
