Control Sync Systems Sues Epson America, Inc. Over Projector Control Technology Patents.
Control Sync Systems, LLC has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Epson America, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, opening case No. 8:26-cv-00511 on March 5, 2026. The complaint alleges that certain Epson products—particularly projectors with device-synchronization and control features—use technology covered by Control Sync Systems’ patents without authorization. According to the filing, the disputed technology relates to systems that allow connected electronics to communicate and coordinate functions such as power control or input switching through shared interfaces like HDMI. Control Sync Systems is seeking damages and other relief under U.S. patent law, while the case is still in its earliest stage and awaits Epson’s formal response and the start of court proceedings.
