Airspace Systems, Inc. has filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against Dedrone Holdings, Inc., alleging that Dedrone has infringed certain of Airspace's patents. The Airspace patents asserted in this lawsuit relate, in part, to Remote ID technology for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) or drones, developed by Airspace.
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Airspace Systems, Inc. has filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against Dedrone Holdings, Inc., alleging that Dedrone has infringed certain of Airspace's patents, including U.S. Patent Nos. 10,249,199, 10,713,959, and 10,514,711. As stated in the complaint, Airspace alleges that Dedrone's infringement of these patents is willful because Dedrone was aware of the asserted patents through communications between Airspace and Dedrone prior to the filing of the lawsuit. The Airspace patents asserted in this lawsuit relate, in part, to Remote ID technology for unmanned aerial systems (UAS) or drones, developed by Airspace.
Airspace has been developing detection, remote ID, and interdiction technology since 2015 and has foundational patents in these areas. Airspace is universally recognized as one of the earliest players in the counter UAS market, with its inventions being utilized by the U.S. Government and on display in the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. Airspace does not treat the decision to file lawsuits lightly, including in relation to infringement of its patents. However, Airspace is committed to vigorously defending its intellectual property rights, including by filing lawsuits to address infringement of its patents.
In the complaint, Airspace asks the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia for a "judgment that Dedrone has infringed and continues to infringe the patents" of the Airspace patents, and further asks for a permanent injunction against Dedrone from infringement of the Airspace patents.
