Intermec-Symbol settlement seen good for industry.(Brief Article)
Supply Chain Management Review, November, 2005 by Spiegel, Robert
The legal settlement of the patent suit between Symbol Technologies and Intermec Technologies is good news for the RFID industry, according to research and analysis firm Venture Development Corp. (VDC). "On the whole the industry should be cautiously optimistic," said VDC in a statement. Intermec holds roughly 145 RFID-related patents, while Symbol holds 50 patents. The settlement removes a dark cloud over RFID adoption, VDC says, especially for open-loop supply chain deployments.
