To date, we have concluded licensing agreements in Asia , Europe and the United States. The Intellectual Property program is currently focused on generating licensing revenues relating to our data compression technology embodied in U.S. Patent No. 4,698,672 (the ‘672 Patent) and its foreign counterparts. The ‘672 Patent covers several fields of use including many digital still image devices such as digital cameras, personal digital assistants, cellular telephones, printers, scanners, and other devices used to compress, store, manipulate, print or transmit digital still images. These revenues provide a solid financial base from which to create new ideas and products for our customers.In mid-2005 Forgent expanded the Intellectual Property program by initiating litigation against 15 companies for infringement of United States Patent No. 6,285,746 (the '746 patent). The '746 patent relates to a computer controlled video system allowing playback during recording.
