Oura and Ultrahuman smart ring patent litigation

Overview

Oura, a Finnish wearable technology company, has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the Indian startup Ultrahuman in a Texas federal court. The legal action targets the internal hardware and physical architecture of the Ultrahuman Ring Pro, specifically alleging infringement regarding curved batteries, circuit boards, magnets, and sensors.

Oura is seeking monetary damages and a permanent injunction to block the sale of the Ring Pro in the United States. The lawsuit follows the recent issuance of U.S. Patent 12,769,363 to Oura. While Ultrahuman had previously redesigned its products to return to the American market following a prior import ban, its CEO noted that Oura is now asserting new patents. Oura has also named manufacturing partner SVTronics as a co-defendant.
