Teradyne Robotics sues JAKA's German subsidiary for patent infringement

Teradyne Robotics A/S sued the German subsidiary of Chinese company JAKA Robotics for patent infringement at the Unified Patent Court on August 27, 2026.

What happened

Teradyne Robotics A/S announced that it had filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the German subsidiary of Chinese robotics company JAKA. It alleges that software and hardware patents related to Universal Robots collaborative robots were infringed.

Why it matters

Because Teradyne Robotics alleges infringement of software and hardware patents related to Universal Robots collaborative robots, the design of collaborative robots and the scope of software rights will be at issue. This matters to developers and sellers who need to determine which technologies are protected by patents and how to handle intellectual property.
