\nADT asks the United States International Trade Commission and federal court to enforce smart home technology patents
\n<\/h2>\n
\n

BOCA RATON, Fla., June 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ADT<\/a>, the most trusted brand in smart home and business security, today brought actions for patent infringement against Vivint, a security and alarm company headquartered in Provo, Utah. Separate but related actions have been filed with the U.S. International Trade Commission and in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas.<\/p>\n

Vivint has introduced and promoted a series of products willfully infringing upon several of ADT\u2019s patents, the complaint asserts. These patents cover ADT\u2019s investments and innovations in smart home integration, data collection, and control panel functions and interfaces, among other capabilities and features. Specifically, according to the complaint, Vivint products including the Vivint Home Security System, SkyControl Panel, and Vivint Smart Hub violate U.S. Patents No. 8,976,937 and No. 9,286,772, belonging to ADT.<\/p>\n

\u201cVivint launched its SkyControl Panel and related products with the express desire, in the words of its former CEO, to \u2018control anything and everything inside the home,\u2019\u201d said David W. Smail, ADT\u2019s Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer. \u201cApparently Vivint also meant \u2018by any means necessary.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTo gain an unfair advantage in the smart home security and automation market, where ADT has long been a pioneer and continues to lead, Vivint infringes ADT\u2019s patents covering, among other things, predictive analytics, detection and diagnostics, and advanced user interfaces including voice control,\u201d Smail added. \u201cBy defending its robust patent portfolio, ADT is determined to protect its employees, its customers, its products, and its reputation. We are asking the Commission for an exclusion order prohibiting Vivint from importing products infringing on our patents, and we are asking the court for a finding of infringement along with appropriate damages, fees, and other relief.\u201d<\/p>\n

ADT\u2019s long history of innovation in technology and services dates to 1874, when the company\u2019s founder Edward Callahan\u2014inventor of the stock ticker\u2014applied telegraph technology to the challenges of home security, creating the first in-home \u201ccall-box\u201d and residential security network. ADT introduced the first interactive security system in 2010 and has developed and delivered other groundbreaking smart home technology solutions in the decade since. The company has continued to lead in innovation for nearly 150 years through revolutions in the security and smart home technology landscape, obtaining hundreds of patents for its industry-firsts during that span. ADT\u2019s patents today cover a wide range of technologies and applications, from monitoring to smart home integration to voice commands and more.<\/p>\n
