A federal jury ruled that Masimo smartwatches infringed Apple patents, but Apple was only awarded the statutory minimum of $250.
Apple's Patent Win
Apple's attorney said the company was not seeking a big payday, but rather wanted to force Masimo to stop copying Apple's design.
Seeking Injunction, Not Money
The jury found that Masimo's original design and charger infringed Apple patents, but this only applied to discontinued products, not Masimo's current offerings.
Infringement Found, but Limited
The trial was part of an ongoing legal battle between Apple and Masimo, which started with Masimo claiming that Apple infringed its patents on blood oxygen monitoring.
