However, the jury determined that those newer models don&#8217;t violate Apple&#8217;s intellectual property. That is why Masimo is also treating the jury&#8217;s decision as a win, telling the news organization that it&#8217;s thankful for the verdict that&#8217;s &#8220;in favor of Masimo and against Apple on nearly all issues.&#8221; Apparently, the ruling only affects a &#8220;discontinued module and charger.&#8221; As for Apple, it told <em>Reuters<\/em> that it was &#8220;glad the jury&#8217;s decision today will protect the innovations [it advances] on behalf of [its] customers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Masimo sued Apple in 2021, accusing it of infringing on several of its light-based blood-oxygen monitoring patents, while the tech giant countersued a year later.
