Paneltouch Technologies LLC is a Texas-based entity formed on July 11, 2023. Public records identify its managing member as Touch Display LLC, a Delaware entity created one day prior. Paneltouch Technologies has no publicly listed operations, employees, or products. The company has stated in a disclosure that it has no parent corporation and that no publicly held corporation owns 10% or more of its interest.
Paneltouch Technologies is a non-practicing entity (NPE) that acquires and asserts patents. In March 2024, the company acquired a portfolio of over 140 U.S. patents from Panasonic. The patents in this portfolio generally relate to touch panels, liquid crystal displays, and display manufacturing methods. The company does not manufacture products or provide services related to this technology.
The company's patent-litigation posture is that of a patent assertion entity. As indicated by the provided case data, Paneltouch Technologies has only appeared as a plaintiff in the two tracked cases. Both of these lawsuits were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, a venue often favored by patent plaintiffs.
Both of the company's tracked lawsuits were filed on February 28, 2025, against BOE Technology Group Co., Ltd., a major manufacturer of display panels. The suits allege infringement of five patents from the portfolio acquired from Panasonic. The accused products include OLED and display/touch panels supplied by BOE for use in devices such as the Valve Steam Deck handheld gaming device and the Amazon Fire HD10 tablet.
