Sunovia has been issued nine patents to date, and has more than twenty patents pending that are related to LEDs, LED lighting systems and LED internal controls.
The issuance of patent no. 8,018,161 B2 provides additional protections for Sunovia's proprietary brand of EvoLucia Aimed Optics(TM) products, and fortifies the company's strategic initiatives to further advance the controls and monitoring side of Sunovia's LED lighting business.

Sunovia CEO, Mel Interiano, stated, "The '161 B2 patent further strengthens the foundation and propriety of our brand, and is an important building block in the electronics controls division of the company. The growth and protection of our intellectual property portfolio will remain a priority as we design and integrate new features and controls into our product lines."
