Apple Will Once Again Be Banned from Selling Smartwatches in U.S. With Blood Oxygen Sensor

The ban stems from an intellectual property dispute with Masimo, a medical device company. In October, the International Trade Commission found that Apple’s blood oxygen sensors had infringed on Masimo’s intellectual property.
