Many claims, but no actual notability. They have tried to introduce may things, none of them notable. Most of the references are mere notices, on suing and being sued for infringement, supplemented by a few promotional interviews.

This is part of a not very skilled promotional campaign for its sister company, Immersion Corporation, and their founder, for whom see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Louis B. Rosenberg. (I am not nominating Immersion Corporation--I think I may have been able to fix it, but it anyone thinks it's still promotional and non-notable, please let me know when you place the AFD. ) DGG ( talk ) 01:24, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment As the person who originally raised the COI on Rosenberg, my impression is that even with COI Immersion Corp and Unanimous are notable. Whether their clear promotional nature warrants them for retributive deletion is another question. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrigadierG (talk • contribs) 06:04, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Not notable. I agree with DGG. Mommmyy (talk) 19:10, 13 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and rewrite into normal past tense instead of historical present. Most of the promotion is gone, and the company has been around long enough and in the news a number of times to be notable to me at least. I also ran across the article Immersion v. Sony which is n linked from this one but hidden behind a pipe. Not sure if that was intentional. There was a bit of coverage of that case, and there are 20 years of SEC filings, including a recent take-over attempt not mentioned. https://seekingalpha.com/article/4280751-immersion-corporation-activist-shareholders-circling-company https://news.bloomberglaw.com/business-and-practice/immersion-elevates-legal-head-to-ceo-after-waging-patent-battles

As per the original comment, please clarify. It sounds like user DGG did indeed nominate this article to be deleted. The sister company might be Unanimous A.I., which has been around much less time and seems more dubious, claiming to be able to predict events that are in the past?
