Apple has filed a lawsuit against Dr. Chen Shi, a former Apple Watch team member, accusing him of conspiring to steal confidential trade secrets related to Apple’s health sensor technology before joining Oppo. According to the lawsuit, Dr. Shi attended numerous meetings and downloaded 63 protected documents on a USB drive, while also communicating with Oppo about gathering proprietary information. Dr. Shi, who was a sensor system architect at Apple, now leads a sensing technology team at Oppo. Apple discovered evidence of the alleged theft through messages left on an Apple-issued iPhone. Oppo has not responded due to a full email inbox.
