Court ruling could end up costing Sony $27 million a year in licensing charges

A new ruling in the ongoing legal battle between Sony and US firm Immersion Corp has ordered the Japanese giant to pay a quarterly license fee for its use of force feedback technology in PlayStation hardware and games.

Immersion's original lawsuit against Sony was upheld last September, with a jury awarding the company $82 million in damages after deciding that the PlayStation, the Dual Shock controller and over 40 videogames all infringed Immersion's patents.
