Ruling in favor of this patent should be a no-brainer. Did anyone have "slide to unlock" on a phone or tablet before Apple? No. Did this feature show up in all kinds of phones after Apple introduced it? Yes. Case closed.

There is one very rudimentary digital example of slide that didn't quite unlock but left to right initiated a YES and right to left a NO. But it's not on a capacitance display and has UI showing this action. There is also no evidence that the company patented the method or evidence that there implementation could somehow encompass what Apple patented across their very focused usage and hardware method.

Common sense doesn't have any legal precedent or weight, sadly.

You just showed a complete lack of understanding the intent behind the patent system.

Next you'll cite a master lock key locking mechanism negates Ford, Chrysler, BMW, Ferrari, etc., from patenting an implementation of a turn lock system.

If the way Android slide to unlock is now not in violation of Apple's patent there is simply no way that Apple is violating anything Neonode did. But we're never going to hear the end of it. I think in 20 years some asshat will still bring it up as proof that Apple stole the idea.

Does it really matter who did or didn't steal the slide to unlock idea? It's hardly a Nobel Prize idea. And as much as I admire Apple and their products, here is the truth: whether people here want to admit it or not, or choose to blast me for saying it, it is not beneath Apple to steal ideas.

What is far more interesting is the ping pong match going on here. This is somewhat of a simplification: Samsung & Moto are using telecom patents to try and beat Apple, whereas Apple is attacking with computer UX technology. It is a clash of the old world against the new.

These arguments are always total BS. It isn't as though Apple is all that good at keeping a secret, dispite popular myth. Anyone who was slightly tuned in knew even five years in advance that Apple was developing a tablet. That is what that guy from macosrumors.com was always rambling about, trying not to be specific. For two years before the iPhone everyone knew Apple was working on a phone.

Then the story was that everyone was holding off on producing a tablet until they had a look at what Apple was coming out with.

The solution is simple, it everything Apple does is so obvious, just do it before Apple and beat them to the punch.

Google already has a patent for this.

Also prior art (or utility in this case) has been established by Neonode N1.

More importantly, Apple's FreeBSD/OpenBSD/NetBSD/Darwin underpinnings offers all that Linux does as an actual UNIX OS, but Ubuntu offers nothing for the User Experience and App level experience that OS X offers.

I'm typing on Debian Linux Sid [12 years and running along-side OS X on two other systems].

KDE 4.7.x is still half baked and so is GNOME 3.x

If Apple ever wanted to produce OS X Server to run Big Iron they could tomorrow. We had test harness solutions for massive solutions but never saw it as a business case for Apple.

Not that any of these are as easy and intuitive as swiping an image to unlock...

Shaking or turning the phone are obviously not a way to prevent accidental unlocking, so they don't fulfill the desired function and cannot be considered. All of the rest are some form of interaction with the screen, and those that don't rely on both spatial and temporal coordination of the input are very error prone and so useless (double tapping, seriously?).

(spam link removed)

For the record, this is just you saying that prior art exists.

You make it sound like some court somewhere has established that the Neonode N1 is definitely "prior art" when in fact it's not the case at all.

A bunch of folks with no law degrees and not much idea about patent law have pointed to the Neonode N1 as prior art for the swipe patent, but that doesn't make it a fact. It's not being used by any of the defendants or actual lawyers involved in the case which should tell you something (that is if watching the video doesn't reveal that it isn't really similar "art" to the patent in question).

The "gesture" in the video (if one can rightly call it that), is neither the same thing as the patent describes nor even anything new. A similar gesture was used in Palm devices and they copied it from the Newton. So Apple did it first no matter how you look at it.

As someone bereft of a law degree I don't understand your point.

From the link provided-

"It did work as expected in the Netherlands though, and Samsung has already brought the lowly Neonode N1m in front of the court there -- and had Apple's claims over slide to unlock determined to be "trivial and likely invalid", and the court refused to consider them."

The above seems to suggest that a bunch of folk with law degrees in Holland determined that it was prior art.

I guess that we should be grateful that the process of patenting virtually everything is relatively new. Otherwise phones would be awfully expensive. Want to use a pin number on your phone- give us $5. Want to click on a hyperlink- that'll be £5 to BT, want to surf html sites on your phone- pay Annygraaf, and so on.

Given that Windows phone uses this feature, and that Microsoft has assured OEMs IP free headaches, does this mean that MS licence it from apple?

If so they must have a lot of reciprocal agreements.

Anyway...This whole 'slide-to-unlock' along a designated path has become a bit old/tired i.e circa 2007, with Google already having come up with something far more innovative that's pretty much ready for implementation.


problem is that IBM has a patent on circular menus (or selecting an item from a circle of items) so this feature of selecting items on the unlock screen, will butt up against "big blue" IBM. ...people seem to think that they can pick a fight with apple... does google also think it can win against the "god" of computing(IBM) lol?

the circle method, or the OH method as in "OH let my turn on my phone" lol.

how about the letter method (uh, on second thought, because letters have vertical or horizontal strokes in them, that method would infringe. ) wow, the only letter in the alphbet without v/h strokes... "O" hence the non-infringement. W..S.. too complex, C...close to "O".

The thing is, I believe any of these are also covered by Apple's patent. In the patent, they give slide-to-unlock only as an example, but their more general definition includes any gestures performed on an image, which should include tapping a code onto image of a numeric keypad as well. It's not just the slide gesture, if it was the patent would be invalid since clearly there is prior art on the gesture used for unlocking.

I appreciate all of your ideas, you give them for free and they take you less than a few minutes of thinking. How much do you think Apple invested in coming up with their method?

You would be wrong. A standard input like tapping on any type of keypad would not be covered by this patent.

So these devices do not use an image to guide the user. I can 'swipe' a circle anywhere on the screen that I wish to unlock the phone.

Because as I understand Apple's patent it is for a gesture preset in the software and performed in a preset place with an image and/or text to guide the user to the correct spot and gesture.

Which means, depending on exactly how this circle works, Apple could be able to win an appeal that in fact they are not immune.

Hey Motorola, slide this:



I don't think the Neonode's method is quite the same. Apple's patent states:

"The device displays one or more unlock images with respect to which the predefined gesture is to be performed in order to unlock the device. The performance of the predefined gesture with respect to the unlock image may include moving the unlock image to a predefined location and/or moving the unlock image along a predefined path."

The patent could sort of describe the Neonode method if you cut out the conditionals but it doesn't use an identifier to perform the unlock, you just slide across the bottom of the screen. There's no interactive animation to the unlocking.

Still, I'm sure Apple wouldn't like if someone else held a patent on keycode entry that would prevent them using a pin unlock system. They could have let this one slide but in light of the blatant plagiarism of Apple's unique designs, these Android device manufacturers and Google deserve to have at least some lawsuits go through protecting Apple's uniqueness.

I guess you havent followed the Samsung vs Apple in the Holland case now have you?

What the courts will do is invalidate Apple's latest "patent" (not a patent of course) in the trial as prior art/ utility was already established before.

You dont believe me?

Same idea different use... Slide to unlock isn't a new concept. It's only new to phones at best. Other phones had gestures before the iphone too, just nothing with global recognition. I think one was actually out of Germany. I'll look for the link again later.

It doesn't have to be a new concept, it just has to be a unique implementation. Would you disallow patenting the pogo stick because people have been jumping up and down for a long time? The telegraph because of smoke signals? How could Edison patent the light bulb, when candles had been doing the same thing for so long?

Somehow whenever it involves Apple we get into these insane standards of innovation that would preclude the entire concept of invention, for anyone, ever.

Since new ideas don't come from the bizarro dimension and leave us all mystified as to what they even do, of course they have antecedents.
