In recent years, with the rise of "internet plus", ETC has become the darling of intelligent transportation. The market scale of ETC has been expanding, attracting a large influx of capital and talents.
However, at this stage, intellectual property disputes in this field are rare, and a typical case still occurred on 20 15. At that time, ZTE Zhilian Technology Co., Ltd. sued Shanghai Hua Hong Integrated Circuit Co., Ltd. and Chongqing Tongyu Technology Co., Ltd. to Chongqing No.1 Intermediate People's Court and Chongqing No.5 Intermediate People's Court respectively for infringement of two ETC system invention patents, claiming 2 million yuan. In this regard, some experts pointed out that with the continuous expansion of ETC market, the competition in this field will become increasingly fierce, and technology is bound to become the trump card of enterprise competition.
The claim for patent infringement case of Jinyi Technology v. Juli Technology is as high as 1 billion, setting the highest claim for invention patents in ETC field, which has aroused heated discussion in society. As a leading enterprise of ETC, Jinyi Technology started its layout in the field of intellectual property very early. Up to 20 16 12 3 1, jinyi technology holds 296 patents, including 55 invention patents, which are at the leading level in the industry.
The enlightenment to the industry lies in that, on the one hand, enterprises should do a good job in pre-technical reserves, put more energy into research and development, extract core technologies with high gold content and stand the market test from many technologies, and submit patent applications for core technologies in time to avoid potential intellectual property infringement risks; On the other hand, relevant practitioners should do a good job in the careful layout of intellectual property rights to deal with all kinds of intellectual property infringement risks.
