Silversphere, LLC is a technology company specializing in emergency communication and resident monitoring systems for the senior living industry. Headquartered in Daytona Beach, Florida, the company was founded in 1945. Silversphere, LLC was acquired by Sentrics in April 2019, and its operations are now integrated into Sentrics' broader offerings for senior care. Sentrics itself is backed by the private equity firm Periscope Equity LLC.
Prior to its integration into Sentrics, Silversphere designed, manufactured, installed, and supported a range of senior care technology, including emergency call systems, nurse call systems, resident monitoring, and predictive health technologies and sensors. These solutions encompassed cloud-based monitoring, wearable technology, and wander management. Following the acquisition, Silversphere's technologies became a foundational component of the Sentrics Ensure360SM emergency call and life safety platform, which is part of the Sentrics360SM suite of data-driven solutions for senior living communities.
Silversphere, LLC's patent litigation posture is that of an operating company defending against patent infringement allegations. The company has been named as a defendant in two tracked cases and has no recorded plaintiff cases. Both lawsuits, filed by RICMIC, LLC in the Florida Middle District Court, list Silversphere, LLC alongside its parent company, Sentrics, Inc., and Sentrics Holdings, LLC, as defendants.
The most prominent tracked cases are "RICMIC, LLC v. Sentrics, Inc. et al.," both initiated on May 10, 2024, in the Florida Middle District Court. These cases allege patent infringement related to emergency alert systems, a technology area central to Silversphere's historical and current operations within Sentrics. A notice of settlement has been filed in one of these cases, suggesting a prompt resolution. This pattern, with an entity like RICMIC, LLC asserting patents against multiple operating companies in the senior care technology space, is characteristic of a Non-Practicing Entity (NPE).
RICMIC, LLC filed a patent infringement suit against Sentrics, Inc., Sentrics Holdings, LLC, and Silversphere, LLC in the Florida Middle District Court. The case was filed on May 10, 2024, and later closed with a joint notice of settlement.
This patent infringement case, filed by RICMIC, LLC against Sentrics, Inc., Sentrics Holdings, LLC, and Silversphere, LLC, was closed following a joint notice of settlement.
