Samsung Applies to Register SmartThings Trademark, 4 Years After Buying IoT Firm

Samsung filed applications last week in South Korea and the U.S. to register a trademark for the SmartThings IoT subsidiary it bought four years ago (see 1408180053), Patent and Trademark Office records show. The trademark consists of Korean characters in “stylized font” that “transliterate” to SmartThings but have “no meaning in a foreign language,” said the applications. Wednesday, the company didn’t comment.
