Yes. Dolby Laboratories is what came up the PQ transfer function which is what's responsible for HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision, for example. Dolby Atmos is similarly an actually new way to handle spatial audio. They've also created things like ICtCp ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICtCp https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICtCp ) So they do actually contribute some worthwhile stuff. And some of it is open standards (like PQ & ICtCp). They also absolutely troll licenses though. Dolby Vision being a perfect example, check out the "profiles" section of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Vision https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolby_Vision and you'll see some truly dumb Dolby Vision profiles that exist obviously just to slap a Dolby Vision license & branding on an otherwise boring, generic video format. Dolby Vision 9 is a perfect example, it's not even HDR at all. It's literally the same stuff we've all been watching for a decade+, but with marketing wank shoved onto it.
