Kodak announced today that it has filed a lawsuit against Samsung, alleging infringement of certain patents related to Kodak digital imaging technology. The complaint, filed in U.S. District Court for the Western District of New York, alleges that certain Samsung tablets infringe patented Kodak digital imaging technology. Kodak has licensed its digital imaging patents to more than 30 leading technology companies, including LG, Motorola, and Nokia, with all of the licenses royalty-bearing to Kodak.
The complaint against Samsung alleges infringement of five patents. On January 10, Kodak had filed patent infringement suits against Apple Inc. (AAPL) and HTC with the U.S. International Trade Commission and in the same New York District Court.
