- DJI sued Insta360, alleging that Insta360’s recent vlogging camera infringes on DJI’s patented gimbal and stabilization technology.
- Insta360 filed a counter‑claim, saying DJI’s latest handheld camera violates Insta360’s own patents covering omnidirectional lenses and software stitching.
- The complaints were lodged in federal court in California earlier this month. Both filings reference specific U.S. patents, but the numbers and exact claims have not been disclosed publicly.
- The dispute could force either side to redesign products or seek licensing deals, potentially delaying new releases.
- Patent fights are common in the fast‑moving camera market, but the back‑and‑forth between two market leaders highlights how thin the line is between innovation and infringement.
