Nike Inc on Wednesday filed a lawsuit accusing Lululemon Athletica Inc (LULU.O) of patent infringement for making and selling the Mirror Home Gym and related mobile apps without authorization.
In a complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, Nike accused its smaller rival of infringing six patents, including through technology that enables users to target specific levels of exertion, compete with other users, and record their own performance.
Nike, based in Beaverton, Oregon, is seeking triple damages for Lululemon’s alleged willful infringement, and a variety of other remedies.
