What is the difference with Neo and Scan patents? why would the Ustpo grant patents to both parties utilizing the same tech? I have been doing my own research and it seems the patents basically do the same thing! Decode, Direct etc. etc...Why is Scan such a threat to us, if we own the indirect method?
Are these patents known as prior art and been considered irrelevant?
This is is the first time I see Scanbuy been granted a patent that involves decoding a barcode and communicating with a server. Any threat from this?
Patent No. 7287696 and No. 7156311 – A system and method for decoding and analyzing barcodes using a mobile device, and communicating with a server to deliver media content back to the device
