NPE / troll-pattern signals

  1. Shell-entity transfer — Not present. The assignments reflect name changes/corrections of an operating company, ImagineAR Inc.
  2. Known asserter in the chain — Not present. ImagineAR Inc. is not identified as a known NPE.
  3. Repeat correspondent across the chain — Present. Michael A. Bishop (MICHAEL A. BISHOP, 9595 WILSHIRE BLVD SUITE 900, BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA, 90212) is the correspondent of record for both assignments: Reel 061203/0751 (recorded 2022-08-17) and Reel 062024/0200 (recorded 2023-01-20).
  4. Cascading transfers — Unclear. While two assignments occurred within a short period (August 2022 and January 2023), they represent name changes/corrections for the same legal entity, not transfers between distinct entities.
  5. Pre-litigation transfer — Not present. The earliest recorded litigation (PTAB case IPR2025-01275) was filed in 2025, which is well after the 2022 and 2023 assignments.
  6. Bankruptcy fire-sale — Not present. ImagineAR Inc. is an active public company, although it has temporarily suspended some operations.
  7. Privateering — Not present. No evidence found to suggest this pattern.
  8. Defensive aggregator (anti-NPE) — Not present. The patent is currently held by ImagineAR Inc.

Verdict

Insufficient data. The assignment records only reflect name changes and corrections for the original operating company, ImagineAR Inc. While there is a recurring correspondent (Michael A. Bishop on Reel 061203/0751 and Reel 062024/0200), without actual transfers to distinct legal entities, there isn't sufficient evidence to classify this patent as being asserted by an NPE. The current assignee, ImagineAR Inc., is an operating company that, as of April 2026, has temporarily suspended its AR platform operations to focus on IP.
