\nGoogle is striking back at Sonos with a pair of lawsuits alleging that the wireless speaker company is infringing on a number of its patents around smart speakers and voice control technology. It\u2019s the latest volley in a back-and-forth battle over wireless speakers that has so far involved multiple lawsuits from Sonos, one lawsuit from Google, and one ruling in favor of Sonos that\u2019s led to features being stripped from Google\u2019s products.<\/p>\n
These new lawsuits allege infringement of seven additional patents. One lawsuit focuses on hotword detection and wireless charging, and the other revolves around how a group of speakers determines which one should respond to voice input.<\/p>\n

\nGoogle says Sonos \u201cstarted an aggressive and misleading campaign against our products\u201d<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nGoogle spokesperson Jos\u00e9 Casta\u00f1eda said the lawsuits are being filed to \u201cdefend our technology and challenge Sonos\u2019s clear, continued infringement of our patents.\u201d Casta\u00f1eda said that Sonos had \u201cstarted an aggressive and misleading campaign against our products, at the expense of our shared customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
Both lawsuits are being filed this morning in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Google plans to file similar lawsuits with the US International Trade Commission in the coming days that will seek to ban imports of any infringing Sonos products, Casta\u00f1eda told The Verge<\/em>.<\/p>\nThe legal skirmish started in 2020 when Sonos initially sued Google<\/a> over multiroom speaker technology. The two companies had partnered years earlier to make Google services work on Sonos speakers, and Sonos claimed that Google went on to steal its speaker tech to build the Google Home and other devices. Google countersued months later<\/a>, claiming Sonos infringed on a number of its patents, too. Then Sonos sued again<\/a>. Finally, in January \u2014 two years after the first lawsuit was filed \u2014 the US International Trade Commission ruled in Sonos\u2019 favor<\/a>, finding Google in violation of Sonos\u2019 patents.<\/p>\n
In response, Google has had to adjust features of some of its products. That included Google removing the ability<\/a> to adjust the volume of a group of speakers at once \u2014 a pretty annoying change for owners of multiple Google speakers. Today\u2019s lawsuits seems to be an attempt by Google to gain leverage on Sonos as the two spar over features.<\/p>\n
