In a bold move that highlights the growing intersection of tech and automotive industries, WirelessWerx IP has taken legal action against Subaru of America. Filed on February 21, 2025, in the Eastern District of Texas, the lawsuit centers on infringement of Patent No. 7,323,982 covering "Method and System to Control Movable Entities."
"This is about protecting innovation," says a source familiar with the case. The patent, which involves technology for controlling movable objects, has become increasingly valuable as vehicles evolve into sophisticated, connected machines.
Ramey LLP, representing WirelessWerx IP, has demanded a jury trial in the Marshall Division courthouse - a venue known for its handling of high-stakes intellectual property disputes.
The timing is particularly notable as automakers race to implement advanced control systems in their vehicles. For Subaru, a brand that has built its reputation on technical innovation, the lawsuit presents both legal and strategic challenges.
Industry analysts are watching closely. "These patent battles aren't just legal skirmishes—they're defining the rules of the road for how technology will be licensed and implemented in tomorrow's vehicles," notes one observer.
As the case moves forward, it serves as a reminder that in today's automotive landscape, intellectual property has become as important as horsepower and fuel efficiency.
