The International Trade Commission seeks comments by Oct. 4 on a Section 337 complaint alleging that imports of open-ear earpiece devices infringe patents held by Bose, it said in a notice to be published Sept. 26 in the Federal Register. According to the complaint, the respondents are seeking a general exclusion order and cease and desist orders against 22 Chinese companies to bar from entry "certain open-ear earpiece devices (also known as open-ear headphones or open earbuds)" that violate their patents. Bose described its products as "open-ear earbuds which, unlike traditional in-ear or over-ear headphones, do not block the ear canal, allowing users to hear both their audio and ambient sounds simultaneously."
