Overview
- The U.S. International Trade Commission issued a final determination in Investigation No. 337-TA-1400, finding a design-patent violation related to GoPro’s HERO-style look.
- The Commission issued a Limited Exclusion Order and a Cease and Desist Order, which would take effect after Presidential Review.
- The ruling applies to certain legacy Insta360 Ace models, while five GoPro utility patents on stabilization and image processing were found invalid, not infringed, or both.
- Insta360 says it will continue to import and sell its existing U.S. product lineup without restriction, citing the Commission’s decision.
- GoPro touts the design-patent win and recent PTAB validations of its stabilization patents, as Insta360 portrays the outcome as a complete victory.
