“Yesterday, the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) ruled against Ultrahuman and RingConn for patent infringement related to the Oura Ring form factor,” Oura says.

Oura alleges in its newest lawsuit that Ultrahuman's Ring Pro infringes two of its patents.
Oura is suing Ultrahuman all over again.
Its previous patent dispute saw Ultrahuman blocked from the US market for almost a year.
