Power2B Inc.

Power2B Inc. is a privately owned, early-stage hi-tech company incorporated in Delaware, USA, in July 2004, with management and research and development functions headquartered in Jerusalem, Israel. The company is focused on generating innovations in human-machine interface and interactive device technologies.

Power2B specializes in 3D input technology, providing solutions for intuitive user interaction by delivering absolute x-axis, y-axis, z-axis, and angle data from a simple light source. This technology is designed to integrate with various displays and finds applications in mobile devices (including 3D zoom and touch-screen functionality without a touch-sensitive display), home entertainment systems, interactive television, presentation systems, and educational installations. The company's business model explicitly involves forming licensing agreements to aggressively integrate its technology within a broad range of electronic goods.

Power2B Inc.'s patent litigation posture indicates it is a non-practicing entity (NPE) that actively asserts and defends its intellectual property. The company has two tracked cases as a plaintiff at the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB), with no cases as a defendant. These PTAB proceedings involve Power2B defending the patentability of its portfolio against challenges, primarily from Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.

The tracked cases, Power2B Inc. v. Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. et al., filed on 2022-02-15 and 2022-01-18, both at the PTAB, reflect this ongoing patent validity dispute. External context reveals numerous appeals to the Federal Circuit concerning PTAB decisions related to Power2B's patents on interactive displays, input systems, and computer navigation technology (e.g., US9569093B2, US8547364B2, US9317170, US7952570B2, US9946369B2). These appeals have often resulted in mixed outcomes, affirming some aspects of the PTAB rulings while reversing or remanding others.
