On September 14, 2023, all of the original claims of EP 3490258 B1, owned by Dolby International AB, were found unpatentable based on a challenge filed by Unified. EP ‘258 generally relates to video coding techniques that use data hiding to decrease bandwidth. This filing is a part of Unified’s ongoing efforts in its SEP Video Codec Zone.
