`

`
`9.
`
`U.S. Patent No. 8,552,978 (the '978 Patent"), titled "3D Pointing
`
`8 Device and Method for Compensating Rotations of the 3D Pointing Device
`
`9 Thereof," was duly and legally issued by the United States Patent and Trademark
`
`10 Office on October 8, 2013 to Cywee Group Limited, as assignee of named inventors
`
`11 Zhou Ye, Chin-Lung Li, Shun-Nan Liou. A true and correct copy of the '978 Patent
`
`12
`
`13
`
`is attached hereto as Exhibit A.
`
`10. CyWee is the owner of all right, title, and interest in and to the '978
`
`14 Patent with full right to bring suit to enforce the patent, including the right to recover
`
`15 for past infringement damages.
`
`16
`
`11.
`
`Each and every claim of the '978 Patent is vaJid and enforceable and
`
`17 e~ch enjoys a statutory presumption of validity separate, apar1, and in addition to the
`
`18 statutory presumption of validity enjoyed by every other of its claims. 35 U .S.c. §

`
`2
`
`ZTE Exhibit 1009
`Page 10 of 209
`
`
`
`1
`
`15. CyWee is informed and believes, and thereupon alleges, that Apple has
`
`2 directly infringed, literally and/or under the doctrine of equivalents, and wi II
`
`3 continue to directly infringe each patent claim of the '978 Patent by making, using,
`
`4 selling, offering to sell, and/or importing into the United States products that
`
`5 embody or practice the apparatus and/or method covered by one or more claims of
`
`6
`
`the '978 Patent, including but not limited to the Defendant's iPhone 5s, iPad Air,
`
`7 and iPad mini (2nd generation) (collectively referred to as "Accused Products") .
`
`8
`
`9
`
`16. Apple has had knowledge of and notice of the '978 Patent and Apple's
`
`infringement of the '978 Patent since at least March 31, 2014, and through, the fiJ ing
`
`10 and service of this Complaint and despite this knowledge continues to infringe. On
`
`11 March 31,20\4, CyWee disclosed several patents, including the '978 Patent, in pre-
`
`12 suit licensing discussions with Apple. Apple's infringement of the '978 patent has
`
`13 been and continues to be willful and deliberate.
`
`14
`
`17. CyWee is informed and believes, and thereupon alleges, that Apple
`
`15 actively induces customers to infringe the '978 Patent in violation of 35 U.S.c. §
`
`16 271(b) by instructing and otherwise encouraging infringement and by providing
`
`17
`
`infringing mobile devices and 3D pointing technologies preinstalled in the Accused
`
`18 Products. For example, Apple provides application developers a Core Motion
`
`19 Framework Reference for Apple's iOS platform to enabJe end users to enable the
`
`20 Accused Products' hardware to detemline current position or motion associated with
`
`21
`
`the device. Consumers of the Accused Products then directly or jointly infringe the
`
`22
`
`'978 Patent.
`
`23
`

`

`
`3 Apple's 3D pointing technologies in the Accused Products work in conjunction with
`
`4 mobile applications in a manner that infringes the '978 Patent. Therefore, Apple is
`
`5 also contributing to the direct infringement of the '978 Patent by the users of these
`

`
`7
`
`19. Defendant's acts of infringement have caused and wil1 continue to
`
`8 cause substantial and in'eparable damage to CyWee,
`
`9
`
`20. As a result of the infringement of the '978 Patent by Defendant, CyWee
`
`10 has been damaged, CyWee is, therefore, entitled to such damages pursuant to 35
`
`11 U.S.c. § 284 in an amount that presently cannot be pled but that wiIJ be detennined

`
`21.
`
`Plaintiff repeats and re-alleges each and every allegation of paragraphs
`
`15 1-7 as though fully set forth herein.
`
`16
`
`22. U.S. Patent No. 8,441,438 (the
`
`'438 Patent"), titled "3D Pointing
`
`17 Device and Method for Compensating Movement Thereof," was duly and legally
`
`18
`
`issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office on May 14,2013 to Cywee
`
`19 Group Limited, as assignee of named inventors Zhou Ye, Chin-Lung Li, Shun-Nan
`
`20 Liou. A true and correct copy of the '438 Patent is attached hereto as Exhibit B.
`
`21
`
`23. CyWee is the owner of all right, title, and interest in and to the '438
`
`22 Patent with full right to bring suit to enforce the patent, including the right to recover
`
`23
`
`for past infringement damages.
`
`24
`
`24.
`
`Each and every claim of the '438 Patent is valid and enforceable and
`
`25 each enjoys a statutory presumption of val idity separate, apart, and in addition to the
`
`26 statutory presumption of validity enjoyed by every other of its claims. 35 U.S.c. §
`
`27 282.

`

`
`25. Apple has at no time, either expressly or impliedly, been licensed under
`
`the '438 Patent.
`
`26.
`
`The '438 Patent describes and claims, inter alia, 3D pointing devices
`
`4 and methods for compensating movement.
`
`5
`
`27. CyWee is informed and believes, and thereupon alleges, that Apple,
`
`6 without authorization or license, has been, and is currently directly or indirectly
`
`7
`
`infl-inging one or more claims of the' 438 Patent in violation of 35 U.S .c. § 271,
`
`8
`
`9
`
`including as stated below.
`
`28. CyWee is informed and believes, and thereupon alleges, that Apple has
`
`10 directly infringed, literally and/or under the doctrine of equivalents, and will
`
`II continue to directly infringe each patent claim of the '438 Patent hy making, using,
`
`12 selling, offering to seU, and/or importing into the United States the Accu sed
`
`13 Products that embody or practice the apparatus and/or method covered by one or
`
`14 more claims of the '438 Patent, including but not limited to the Accused Products.
`
`15
`
`29. Apple has had knowledge of and notice of the '438 Patent and Apple's
`
`16
`
`infringement of the' 438 Patent since at least March 31, 2014, and through, the filing
`
`17 and service of this Complaint and despite this knowledge continues to infringe. On
`
`18 March 31,2014, CyWee disclosed several patents, including the '438 Patent, in pre-
`
`19 suit licensing discussions with Apple. Apple's infringement of the '438 patent has
`
`20 been and continues to be willful and deliberate.
`
`21
`
`30. CyWee is informed and believes, and thereupon alleges, that Apple
`
`22 actively induces customers to infringe the '438 Patent in violation of 3S U. S.c. §
`
`23 271 (b) by instructing and otherwise encouraging infringement and by providing
`
`24
`
`infringing mobile devices and 3D pointing technologies preinstalled in the Accused
`
`25 Products. For example, Apple provides application developers a Core Motion
`
`26 Framework Reference for Apple's iOS platfoml to enable end users to enable the
`
`27 Accused Products' hardware to detennine current position or motion associated with
`

`
`the device. Consumers of the Accused Products then directly or jointly infringe the
`
`'438 Patent.
`
`31. CyWee is informed and believes, and thereupon alleges, that Apple
`
`4 knowingly offers to sell or sells within the United States or imports into the United
`
`5 States the Accused Products that contain infringing 3D pointing technologies
`
`6 preinstalled. The 3D pointing technologies are especially made or especially adapted
`
`7 for use in infringement of the '438 Patent. The Accused Products are not staple
`
`8 articles or commodities of commerce suitable for substantial non-infringing use and
`9 constitute a material part of the invention claimed by the '438 Patent at least because
`
`10 Apple's 3D pointing technologies in the Accused Products work in conjunction with
`
`11 mobile applications in a manner that infringes the '438 Patent. Therefore, Apple is
`
`12 also contributing to the direct infringement of the' 438 Patent by the users of these
`
`13 products.
`
`14
`
`32. Defendant s acts of infringement have caused and will continue to
`
`15 cause substantial and irreparable damage to CyWee.
`
`16
`
`33. As a result of the infringement of the '438 Patent by Defendant, CyWee
`
`17 has been damaged. CyWee is, therefore, entitled to such damages pursuant to 35
`
`18 U.S.c. § 284 in an amount that presently caIU10t be pled but that will be determined
