@BotExistencial@tobbelobb Any patent granted by the USPTO can be challenged starting 9 months after its grant date. Post grant review process begins with a 3rd party filing a petition on or prior to the date that is 9 months after the grant of the patent. uspto.gov/patents/ptab/t…
@tobbelobb the patent was actually granted already so it can't be contested anymore. Prior art should've been considered but it wasn't.
Not an outlier in the patent system unfortunately and not much can be done to be honest.
If someone other than me is interested in working on invalidating patents related to Hangprinter style robots, I will donate consulting hours until you win. I could also maybe help you fund your legal efforts.
I will not initiate a legal fight myself, because it's boring.
