The United States International Trade Commission, or USITC, has opened an investigation into Samsung Electronics, Apple and Google over allegations of infringing voice technology patents used in each company's electronic devices. The USITC announced the investigation on its website on Wednesday, September 16. The investigation follows a complaint filed on behalf of BoomCloud 360, which claims that the devices of these technology giants infringe three of its voice technology patents. BoomCloud 360 is asking the commission to issue an import ban on the products in question, as well as an order barring the sale and distribution of these products in the United States. Samsung, Apple and Google must file their responses to the allegations within no more than 20 days after receiving notice of the investigation. BoomCloud 360, which is based in the US state of California, develops a cloud-based audio platform designed to improve and enhance sound quality for audio playback on various devices without the need for additional hardware.
