`
`Motorola has committed acts of infringement, both direct and indirect, in this district with respect to
`
`each asserted patent and has a regular and established place of business in this judicial district.
`
`
`
`U.S. PATENT NOS. 9,075,136 AND 9,885,782
`
`6. NavBlazer is the owner, by assignment, of U.S. Patent No. 9,075,136 and 9,885,782, each entitled
`
`“VEHICLE OPERATOR AND/OR OCCUPANT
`
`INFORMATION APPARATUS AND
`
`METHOD” (hereinafter collectively referred to as “the Patents-in-Suit”).
`
`7. The patent application that issued as the ’782 Patent is a continuation application of U.S. Patent
`
`Application Ser. No. 09/259,957, filed March 1, 1999, and entitled “VEHICLE OPERATOR
`
`AND/OR OCCUPANT INFORMATION APPARATUS AND METHOD”, now U.S. Pat. No.
`
`9,075,136. U.S. Patent Application Ser. No. 09/259,957, filed March 1, 1999, claims priority to U.S.
`
`Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/076,800, filed March 4, 1998, and entitled “VEHICLE
`
`OPERATOR AND/OR OCCUPANT INFORMATION APPARATUS AND METHOD.”
`
`8. The Patents-in-Suit are valid, enforceable, and were duly issued in full compliance with Title 35 of
`
`the United States Code.
`
`9. The inventions described and claimed in the Patents-in-Suit were invented by Raymond Anthony
`
`Joao.
`
`10. The priority date of each of the Patents-in-Suit is at least as early as March 4, 1998.
`
`11. The Patents-in-Suit relate generally to an apparatus and method for providing a user with one or
`
`more possible travel routes to a destination, as well as additional information regarding the one or
`
`more possible travel routes, such as traffic conditions, road conditions, traffic flow, weather
`
`information and/or other useful information.
`
`12. During prosecution of the ’782 Patent, the patent examiner considered whether the claims of the
`
`’782 Patent were eligible under 35 USC §101 in view of the United States Supreme Court’s decision

`ORIGINAL COMPLAINT FOR PATENT INFRINGEMENT
`
`PAGE | 3
`
`
`
`Case 6:20-cv-00100-ADA Document 1 Filed 02/10/20 Page 4 of 25
`
`in Alice. The patent examiner found that the claims are in fact patent eligible under 35 USC §101
`
`because all pending claims are directed to patent-eligible subject matter, none of the pending claims
`
`are directed to an abstract idea and there would be no preemption of the abstract idea or the field of
`
`the abstract idea.
`
`
`
`
`
`MOTOROLA’S PRODUCTS
`
`13. Upon information and belief, Motorola sells, advertises, offers for sale, uses, or otherwise provides
`
`mobile devices that utilize the Android operating system including, but not limited to, the “Motorola

`
`(“Accused Instrumentalities”) that infringe the Patents-in Suit.
`
`COUNT I
`
`(Infringement of U.S. Patent No. 9,885,782)
`
`14. Plaintiff incorporates the above paragraphs by reference.
`
`15. Motorola has been on notice of the ’782 Patent at least as early as the date it received service of this
`
`Original Complaint.
`
`16. Upon information and belief, Motorola has directly infringed and continues to directly infringe at
`
`least Claims 1, 2 and 7 of the ’782 Patent by making, using, importing, selling, and/or, offering for
`
`sale the Accused Instrumentalities.
`
`17. Motorola, with knowledge of the ’782 Patent, also infringes at least Claims 1, 2 and 7 of the ’782
`
`Patent by inducing others to infringe the ’782 Patent. In particular, Motorola intends to induce its

`
`customers to infringe the ’782 Patent by encouraging its customers to use the Accused
`
`Instrumentalities in a manner that results in infringement.
`
`18. Motorola also induces others, including its customers, to infringe at least Claims 1, 2 and 7 of the
`
`’782 Patent by providing technical support for the use of the Accused Instrumentalities.
`
`19. Upon information and belief, at all times Motorola owns and controls the operation of the Accused
`
`Instrumentalities in accordance with an end user license agreement.
`
`20. By way of example, the Accused Instrumentalities infringe Claim 1 of the ’782 Patent by use of a
`
`global positioning device, wherein the global positioning device determines a location of the
`
`apparatus or a location of a vehicle. Motorola’s “Moto G7” is a representative example of the
`
`Accused Instrumentalities and is a mobile device (apparatus). See Figure 1 below, which is a
`
`screenshot from Motorola’s website, showing a picture of the Moto G7.

`
`described as providing “Real-time traffic updates” and the mock up of the navigation display shows
`
`traffic information being displayed at the bottom of the device display. The device running the Google
`
`Maps application, such as the Moto G7, must necessarily include a receiver for receiving real-time
`
`traffic information.

`
`64. By way of another example, the Accused Instrumentalities infringe Claims 61 of the ’136 Patent
`
`by use of an apparatus that “receives maintenance information associated with the travel route or
`
`maintenance information associated with a second travel route to the destination, and further
`
`wherein the apparatus provides the maintenance information associated with the travel route or
`
`the maintenance information associated with the second travel route.”
`
`65. See Figure 7, reproduced below, which is a screenshot from Google’s website explaining the
`
`meaning of various visual symbols used in the Google Maps application. The visual symbols
`
`include symbols indication “road closures” and “construction,” both of which can be considered
`
`“maintenance information.” Figure 7 also indicates that “[f]or road closures, you’ll find a dotted
`
`red line where the road is closed.” These symbols are visually displayed on the map that is
`
`displayed on the display device of the Accused Instrumentalities.
