Brightex Bio-Photonics Files Patent Infringement Lawsuit Against L'Oréal USA.
San Jose, California – November 21, 2024 Brightex, a leading innovator in precision facial skin analysis, today announced that it has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against L'Oréal, accusing the global beauty and cosmetics company of unlawfully using its patented AI technology without permission. The lawsuit, which was filed in the Northern District of California (Case No. 5:24-cv-07919), seeks damages and an injunction to prevent further infringement.
The patents in question, U.S. Patent Nos. 9,542,595 and 9,842,358, granted on January 10, 2017, and December 12, 2017, cover systems and methods for providing personalized recommendations for cosmetic products. This AI technology developed by Brightex provides the ability to perform real-time facial skin tracking, precisely identifying the face and facial skin features in live videos or still photos, and it represents a significant advancement in the cosmetics and beauty industry.
“We are deeply committed to protecting our intellectual property and the innovations that make Brightex a leader in AI skin analysis and virtual try-on technologies,” said Raj Chhibber, CEO of Brightex. “L'Oréal’s actions represent a clear violation of our patent rights and undermine the hard work of our team. We are taking this legal action to ensure that our intellectual property is fully respected and enforced.”
According to Brightex, L'Oréal and Brightex previously had extensive business dealings, including Brightex’s creation of E-Diagnostic Platforms for two L’Oréal brands (La Roche-Posay and Garnier) and multiple technology demonstrations provided by Brightex at L’Oréal’s request. L’Oréal has subsequently released its ‘Skin Genius,’ ‘Skin Precision Analyzer,’ ‘E-Shade Finder,’ and ‘Virtual Try On’ applications for its various brands, each of which uses the AI technology within Brightex’s patents without authorization. Brightex first notified L’Oréal of its patent rights on May 23, 2022, and after unsuccessful attempts to resolve the matter amicably, the company decided to take legal action.
In the lawsuit, Brightex is seeking damages to halt the continued unauthorized use of its patented technology by L'Oréal. The company is also seeking treble damages due to L’Oréal’s willful infringement and additional damages due to the exceptional nature in which L’Oréal has engaged Brightex to learn about its technology only to utilize that technology without Brightex’s collaboration or consent.
“We believe that protecting intellectual property is essential not only for the success of Brightex but also for the advancement of innovation in our industry,” said Raj Chhibber. “This lawsuit underscores our commitment to maintaining a fair and competitive marketplace where all companies respect one another’s intellectual property rights.”
As of November 21, 2024, L'Oréal has not issued a public response to the lawsuit. The case is currently under review in the Northern District of California, and Brightex looks forward to a resolution that will ensure its intellectual property is respected and upheld.
