Kodak sue Apple and RIM over photo technology

15th January 2010 By Sten No Comment

Camera maker Kodak will sue Apple and Research In Motion (RIM), the makers of the iPhone and Blackberry, over technology used in their handsets, the BBC reports.

Kodak filed a complaint with the US International Trade Commission (ITC). They allege the iPhone and Blackberry use technology for previewing pictures that infringe Kodak’s patents.

They also filed two separate suits against Apple that claim infringements of patents relating to digital cameras and certain computer processes.

Kodak asked the ITC to bar both firms from shipping the phones and asked for undisclosed monetary damages.

RIM and Apple declined to comment.
