On Mar. 9, 2021, LG Electronics announced that they had won a patent infringement lawsuit against TCL, a Chinese electronics company.
In Nov. 2019, the Mannheim District Court in Germany ruled that TCL used LG Electronics patents without permission at the infringement lawsuit filed by LG Electronics against TCL. The key point in this lawsuit is that some technologies applied to feature phones and smartphones sold by TCL infringed on LG Electronics ''LTE standard essential patent”.

According to the patent, the ring works based on a “self-mixing interferometer (SMI)” sensor.
The
SMI sensor optically measures the motion between the sensor and the object
using triangular wave form. A ring equipped with an SMI sensor can analyze the
movement of the wearer and determine the relationship with surrounding objects.

How
about putting on two rings? The patent asserted that the more sensors there
are, the more 'accurately grasping various movements in a complete
three-dimensional environment'. Wearing it on your thumb and index finger, you
can also identify gesture such as pinching, zooming in and out, and rotating
with two fingers.

An example of using it with other devices was 'Apple Pencil'. The ring provides additional functions by recognizing the location and motion of the Apple Pencil in detail.
