After Apple took Shanghai-based Zhizhen Internet Technology and China’s State Intellectual Property Office to court regarding patent rights to a speech recognition technology, a Beijing court ruled against Apple’s claim. Apple reported that it now intends on taking the issue to the Beijing Higher People’s Court.
A spokesperson for Apple commented: “Unfortunately, we were not aware of Zhizhen’s patent before we introduced Siri (speech recognition technology) and we do not believe we are using this patent.”
