A Queue Management Gate

Patent No. EP3049605 (titled "A Queue Management Gate") was filed by Shortcutq on Sep 23, 2014. The application was issued on Oct 30, 2019.

Patent oppositions filed by competitors challenge the validity of a granted patent. These oppositions are typically based on claims of prior art, lack of novelty, or non-obviousness. They are a key part of the process for determining a patent's strength and enforceability.
