A United States federal jury found that Nintendo infringed on a patent on a glasses-free 3D display.
Seijiro Tomita, the patent owner of glasses-free 3D display and former longtime Sony Corp. employee, was rewarded $30.2 million by the jury. Tomita had sued Nintendo of America back in 2011.
Scott Lindvall, one of Nintendo's attorneys says that the 3DS uses no key elements of Tomita's patent. A meeting Tomita had with Nintendo in 2003 was cited in his case, though Lindvall says they met with many companies. The patent has been held in the US since 2008.
At this time, Nintendo has no comment.
