                  Surely this would mean LG has copied the technology since Samsung has Smart Stay in the GS3 which is eye tracking technology?

                      Why won't these companies learn? While they're jabbing at Samsung they're only getting stronger and more successful, hahahahaha stupid mutts!

                        What the ??? hahahah LG is going mad. Never expexted this from LG.

                        I really don't know more about how the patent thing is actually working but..

                        eye tacking should be a common thing. What else u going to use for track Nose ? Ear ? OR Teeth ? This is really childish & i think there is a only some kind of politics going behind this.

                        Using eye for tracking is the obvious thing.

                            Nothing new..Samsung is always stealing software and innovation from all the others companies: Apple, HTC , Nokia , LG... I think that Samsung needs to stop this.

                                  Hey instead of blaming each other, just spend time in new innovations or improvements. Everything is not owned by any, since its open market and nobody cant blame others for copying or duplication, treat like twin concept, lg or samsung both korean based so copying is likely to happen, in some point nokia's device of year 2000, was similar to iphone [so nokia cant blame iphone], and iphone's innovation came from sony walkman [something ipod copied]....so dont waste just grow up.....
