A federal jury in San Diego, California, found that Apple infringed a vibration technology patent held by Taction Technology and awarded damages of more than $5.7 billion. The patent at issue covers haptic feedback features used in the iPhone and Apple Watch. Apple said it will appeal the verdict and argued that its Taptic Engine differs from Taction’s technology. The ruling centers on patent infringement tied to device vibration and tactile response functions, making it a major legal setback for Apple at the trial level. Apple’s response indicates the dispute is not over, with the company challenging both the finding and the comparison between the technologies involved.
