Foreign Patent Applications I Don't Understand What Does 'are Covered Under Pending U.S. And Foreign Patent Applications' Mean In The Para?

I don't understand what does 'are covered under pending U.S. and foreign patent applications' mean in the para? - foreign patent applications

Paragraph reads as follows:
Voice chat and Gmail integrates video technology from Global IP Solutions and Vidya, Inc., of U.S. and foreign patents pending already.
No one can understand? Thank you very much.

  1. "Pending" means that they have filed for patents, but not yet approved or paper work is not over yet. But they are still protected as described above.

  3. This means that the technology protected by patents and no one can copy the technology without a complaint.

    Patents are descriptions of inventions, which are sent to the government. When someone copies an invention with a patent or the patent for the person who used the copy, may be prosecuted.
