infringe certain claims of U.S. Patent
Nos. 7,905,602 (‘‘the ’602 patent’’),
7,857,455 (‘‘the ’455 patent’’), 7,959,296
(‘‘the ’296 patent’’), and 8,220,934 (‘‘the

of investigation named as respondents
MasterImage 3D, Inc. of Sherman Oaks,
California, and MasterImage 3D Asia,
LLC of Seoul, Republic of Korea. Id. at
73903. The Office of Unfair Import
Investigations was not named as a party
to the investigation. Id.
On July 23, 2015, the Commission
later terminated the investigation as to
various of the asserted claims and the
’602 patent in its entirety. Notice (July
23, 2015) (determining not to review
Order No. 6 (July 2, 2015)); Notice (Aug.
20, 2015) (determining not to review
Order No. 7 (Aug. 3, 2015)).
On September 25, 2015, the
Commission determined on summary
determination that RealD satisfied the
economic prong of the domestic
industry requirement through its
significant investment in plant,
significant investment in labor, and
substantial investment in engineering,
research, and development. Notice
(Sept. 25, 2015) (determining to review
in part Order No. 9 (Aug. 20, 2015)). The
Commission, however, reversed the
presiding administrative law judge’s
(‘‘ALJ’’) summary determination with
respect to RealD’s investment in
equipment. Id.
On December 16, 2015, the ALJ issued
a final ID finding a violation of section
337 with respect to the remaining
asserted patents. The ALJ found that the
asserted claims of each patent are
infringed and not invalid or
unenforceable. The ALJ found that the
technical prong of the domestic industry
requirement was satisfied for the
asserted patents. The ALJ also issued a
Recommended Determination on
Remedy and Bonding (‘‘RD’’),
recommending that a limited exclusion
order and cease and desist orders
should issue and that a bond of 100
percent should be imposed during the
period of presidential review.
On December 29, 2015, MasterImage
filed a petition for review challenging
various findings in the final ID. On
January 6, 2016, RealD filed a response
to MasterImage’s petition. On January
15, 2016, and January 19, 2016,
MasterImage and RealD respectively
filed post-RD statements on the public
interest under Commission Rule
210.50(a)(4). The Commission did not
receive any post-RD public interest
comments from the public in response
to the Commission notice issued on
December 22, 2015. 80 FR 80795 (Dec.
28, 2015).
