(AsiaGameHub) – On May 11, Genius Sports filed a lawsuit against SportsCastr alleging infringement of patents related to real-time graphics and interactive overlays used during live sports broadcasts.
The legal action was initiated in the Southern District of New York. The case centers on three patents originally developed by Second Spectrum, which Genius Sports acquired in 2021.
The disputed patents cover technology utilized by PANDA Interactive in its “PANDA Studio” software, which integrates live analytical data, graphics, and interactive elements onto broadcast footage of sporting events.
Genius Sports is pursuing a permanent injunction, treble damages for alleged willful patent infringement, and reimbursement of legal costs. The firm Kirkland & Ellis represents Genius Sports throughout this litigation.
This latest legal move adds another chapter to an ongoing dispute between the two companies.
In 2023, SportsCastr had previously filed a similar suit against Genius Sports and Sportradar over the same patents; all claims were mutually dismissed following a settlement reached in February 2026.
