Apple ordered to pay $5.7 billion for patent infringement
Apple must pay Taction Technology over $5.7 billion, a San Diego federal jury determined, for infringing on its haptics patent. Taction, a company specialising in vibration technology, sued Apple in 2021, claiming its iPhones and Apple Watches used their inventions. Apple has pledged to challenge the ruling, asserting that its Taptic Engine operates on principles distinct from Taction's technology.
