Patent Dispute Intensifies Between DJI and Insta360 Over Camera and Drone TechnologiesWed 25th Mar, 2026The competition between Chinese technology firms DJI and Insta360 has reached a new level as DJI has filed a lawsuit against Insta360 and its parent company, Arashi Vision, in China. DJI, best known for its drones, entered the 360-degree camera market with the launch of the Osmo 360, positioning itself as a competitor to Insta360's established camera products. In response, Insta360, through its subsidiary Antigravity, introduced its first drone featuring an integrated 360-degree camera, marking the world's first such model. The legal dispute focuses on claims that former DJI employees, after joining Insta360, registered patents for technologies allegedly developed during their tenure at DJI. Reports in various media outlets have previously highlighted how certain DJI camera functions and accessories closely resemble those found in Insta360's offerings.
