Oct 25 (Reuters) - Apple AAPL.O convinced a federal
jury on Friday that health monitoring tech company Masimo's
MASI.O smartwatches infringe two of its design patents.
The jury, in Delaware, agreed with Apple that Masimo's W1
and Freedom watches violated Apple's patent rights in smartwatch
designs, awarding the tech giant $250 in damages. Apple's
attorneys told the court the "ultimate purpose" of its lawsuit
was to win an injunction against sales of Masimo's smartwatches
after an infringement ruling.
