Graphics software company Micrografx sued Google, its subsidiary Motorola Mobility, and Samsung Electronics for infringing three graphic patents by running Google Maps and Chrome Browser on their Android devices.
Micrografx filed two lawsuits at the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, on Monday alleging that Samsung, Google and Motorola infringe on the same three patents, court documents show.
The suits target mobile phones, tablets, and notebooks that include applications such as Google Maps and Chrome Browser, which provide interactive vector graphics over a network, according to the complaints. By doing this the companies infringe two of the patents, which are related to vector graphics, according to Micrografx.
The devices named in the Samsung suit (https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/785467-micrografx-v-samsung.html) include the Galaxy SIII, S4, Note II, Tab 2, Tab 3 and other devices.
