Innovative Display Technologies LLC is a privately held entity with a principal place of business in Plano, Texas. Information regarding its founding year, employee count, or revenue is not publicly available. The company is identified as a Non-Practicing Entity (NPE) or Patent Assertion Entity (PAE), primarily focused on patent licensing and enforcement rather than developing or selling products or services.
As a non-practicing entity, Innovative Display Technologies LLC does not offer products or services. Its activities revolve around asserting its patent portfolio, which includes intellectual property related to display technologies, such as light emitting panel assemblies and transreflectors. For example, U.S. Patent 8,215,816 B2, related to a light emitting panel assembly, has been a subject in its litigation.
Innovative Display Technologies LLC exhibits an aggressive patent-litigation posture, acting almost exclusively as a plaintiff. Of its 23 tracked cases, 22 were filed with the company as the plaintiff, with only one instance as a defendant in a Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) proceeding. The majority of its lawsuits have been filed in plaintiff-friendly venues, specifically the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas and the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware.
Notable cases include numerous patent infringement suits filed against major operating companies across diverse sectors. These defendants have included telecommunication providers like T-Mobile US, Verizon Communications, Sprint Corporation, and AT&T Inc.; automotive manufacturers such as Mazda Motor Corporation, Volkswagen AG, Toyota Motor Corp., Hyundai Motor Group, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., and BMW of North America, LLC; and technology and electronics firms including Nikon, Inc., TomTom North America Inc., Canon U.S.A. Inc., Garmin International, Inc., MiTAC Digital Corporation, Amazon.com Inc., Microsoft Corporation, and Hewlett-Packard Company.
