`COMPLAINANTS’ REBUTTAL CLAIM CONSTRUCTION BRIEF
`
`I. INTRODUCTION
`
`Pursuant to Order No. 4 (Setting Target Date and Date for Submission of Proposed
`
`Procedural Schedule) and Order No. 5 (Setting the Procedural Schedule), Complainants
`
`AliphCom d/b/a Jawbone and BodyMedia, Inc. (together, “Complainants” or “Jawbone”)
`
`respectfully submit this Rebuttal Claim Construction Brief addressing the proper construction for
`
`three terms the Parties agreed to request to be construed before the Hearing.
`
`In view of the parties’ positions in the Initial Claim Construction Briefs, Complainants
`
`have modified their alternative proposed claim construction for the term “forming . . . a molding”
`
`(‘811, claims 1, 16) to resolve a concern that Complainants’ original alternative construction
`
`(and Staff’s alternative proposed construction) did not fit grammatically with the surrounding
`
`claim language. Respondents identified that concern in their Initial Claim Construction Brief, see
`
`Respondents’ Initial Br. at 7-8, and Complainants informed Respondents and Staff of their
`
`modified alternative proposed claim construction on November 25, 2015. In any event,
`
`Complainants continue to believe that no construction of that term is necessary and that it can be
`
`understood with its plain and ordinary meaning.

`
`The table below summarizes Complainants’ positions and proposed constructions, as
`
`revised, for the terms in dispute:
`
`Term
`
`“contextual data of the individual”
`(’546, claim 1)
`
`“band”
`(’522, claim 2)
`
`
`“forming . . . a molding”
`(’811, claims 1, 16)
`
`Complainants’ Proposed Construction
`
`data relating to the individual’s activity state,
`environment, surroundings, or location
`
`data-capable device that may be worn as a
`strap or band around an arm, leg, ankle, or
`other bodily appendage or feature
`
`REVISED: No construction necessary. If the
`term is construed, the proper construction is
`“using a mold to form a … material.”1
`
`
`
`II. LEVEL OF ORDINARY SKILL IN THE ART
`
`The Private Parties disagree on the amount of formal education the person of ordinary
`
`skill in the art would have possessed. Respondents’ Initial Br. at 2-3. Staff supports
`
`Complainants’ definition, except for the ’811 patent, which Staff contends should be defined
`
`separately. Staff’s Initial Br. at 4. Nevertheless, the parties appear to agree that any dispute
`
`regarding the appropriate level of ordinary skill in the art is immaterial for purposes of claim
`
`construction of the terms at issue. See Respondents’ Initial Br. at 3. Accordingly, the ALJ need
`
`not resolve this dispute at this time and should reserve it for the Hearing.
`
`
`1 Complainants’ original proposal for this term in the Opening Claim Construction brief was: No
`construction necessary. If the term is construed, the proper construction is “making with a
`mold.”

`
`III. DISPUTED CLAIM TERMS
`
`A.
`
`“contextual data of the individual” (’546, claim 1)
`
`Complainants’ Proposed
`Construction
`
`data relating to the individual’s
`activity state, environment,
`surroundings, or location
`
`Respondents’ Proposed
`Construction
`
`non-physiological information
`regarding the individual’s activity
`state, environment, surroundings,
`or location
`
`Staff’s Proposed
`Construction
`
`Information relating to an
`individual’s activity state,
`environment, surroundings, or
`location
`
`
`Respondents mischaracterize the invention of the ’546 patent. The ’546 patent is not
`
`merely directed at a system to monitor weight loss, as Respondents state. Respondents’ Initial
`
`Br. at 14. Rather, the ’546 patent is directed to a system for removing the inherent inaccuracies
`
`in tracking and monitoring caloric expenditure, through body-mounted sensors, to assist with
`
`weight management. ’546, Abstract.
`
`
`
`Respondents are also incorrect in asserting that the “specification draws a clear line
`
`between ‘physiological’ data/sensors and ‘contextual’ data/sensors.” Respondents’ Initial Br. at
`
`15. To the contrary, the specification explicitly states that physiological and contextual data can
`
`be represented by the same data signal. For example, as Complainants pointed out in their Initial
`
`Brief, the specification sets forth that “digital signal or signals representing certain physiological
`
`and/or contextual characteristics of the individual user may be used by microprocessor 20 to
`
`calculate or generate data indicative of physiological and/or contextual parameters of the
`
`individual user.” ’546, 13:30–34 (emphasis added). Respondents’ construction would
`
`impermissibly exclude this embodiment, by requiring that the contextual data always be separate
`
`from the physiological data. See Osram GmbH v. Int'l Trade Comm'n, 505 F.3d 1351, 1358
`
`(Fed.Cir. 2007) (noting that a claim construction that excludes a preferred embodiment is rarely,
`
`if ever, correct).
`
`
`
`Other portions of the specification further “blur” Respondents’ so-called “clear line
`
`Complainants’ Rebuttal Claim Construction Brief
`3997143v1/014661
`

`
`Inv. No. 337-TA-963

`
`

`
`between ‘physiological’ data/sensors and ‘contextual’ data/sensors.” For example, the
`
`specification states “[t]he system can also predict data indicative of human physiological
`
`parameters including energy expenditure and caloric intake for any given relevant time period as
`
`well as other detected and derived physiological or contextual information.” ’546, 5:14-18. The
`
`specification further states that an alternate embodiment
`
`includes at least two sensors adapted to be worn on an individual’s body
`selected from the group consisting of physiological sensors and contextual
`sensors, wherein at least one of the sensors is a physiological sensor. The
`sensors are adapted to generate data indicative of at least a first parameter
`of the individual and a second parameter of the individual, wherein the
`first parameter is physiological.
`
`’546, 5:50-57. This embodiment contemplates an apparatus with two sensors, of which at least
`
`one is a physiological sensor. Id. In other words, this embodiment could be an apparatus with
`
`two sensors, both of which are physiological. The specification reinforces that all the sensors
`
`can be physiological, stating “[i]n either embodiment of the apparatus, the at least two sensors
`
`may be both physiological sensors, or may be one physiological sensor and one contextual
`
`sensor.” ’546, 6:3-5. Moreover, the sensors described in this embodiment generate data of at
`
`least one parameter that is physiological. Id. It is unspecified whether the second parameter can
`
`be contextual or physiological. However, had the inventors wanted to restrict the type of the
`
`second parameter, they could easily have done so. That they did not indicates that the second
`
`parameter can be contextual or physiological. In view of this, the ’546 patent contemplates that
`
`contextual data can be generated from only physiological sensors.2 Respondents’ construction
`
`would exclude this embodiment, because it would require a separate contextual sensor; this is not
`
`required by the claims or the specification. Because Respondents’ proposed construction would
`
`improperly exclude this embodiment, it is incorrect and should be rejected. Osram, 505 F.3d at
`
`2
`Staff correctly acknowledges that the “contextual activity state parameter may be
`derived in part from data supplied by physiological sensors.” (Staff’s Brief at 11).

`
`

`
`1358.
`
`
`
`For this same reason, Respondents’ argument that the claims “draw a distinction between
`
`physiological and contextual data, by requiring a processing unit that ‘derive[s] physiological
`
`and contextual data of the individual from data detected by said sensor device,’” is also incorrect.
`
`Respondents’ Initial Br. at 16 (citing ’546, 60:21-22). As discussed above, the specification
`
`contemplates a sensor device containing only physiological sensors. Once again, Respondents’
`
`construction improperly excludes embodiments from the specification. Osram, 505 F.3d at
`
`1358.
`
`In view of the explicit construction for this phrase set forth in the specification, which
`
`Complainants’ proposal mirrors, Complainants’ construction is correct.
`
`B.
`
`“band” (’522, claim 2)
`
`Complainants’ Proposed
`Construction
`
`data-capable device that may be
`worn as a strap or band around
`an arm, leg, ankle, or other
`bodily appendage or feature
`
`Respondents’ Proposed
`Construction
`
`Plain and ordinary meaning.
`
`Staff’s Proposed
`Construction
`
`No construction necessary.
`Plain and ordinary meaning. If
`construed,
`the
`proper
`construction is “a substantially
`flat encircling strip.”
`
`Although Respondents contend that the term “band” should be given its plain and
`
`
`
`ordinary meaning, their argument reveals their intent to deprive the term of any meaning at all
`
`rather than give the term a meaning in the context of the patent as would be understood by a
`
`person of ordinary skill in the art at the time of the invention. “The words of a claim are
`
`generally given their ordinary and customary meaning as understood by a person of ordinary
`
`skill in the art when read in the context of the specification and prosecution history.” Thorner
`
`v. Sony Computer Entm't Am. LLC, 669 F.3d 1362, 1365-67 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (citing Phillips v.
`
`AWE Corp., 415 F.3d 1303, 1313 (Fed. Cir. 2005) (en banc)) (emphasis added). Contrary to
`
`Complainants’ Rebuttal Claim Construction Brief

`
`

`
`precedent, Respondents effectively ask the ALJ to ignore the explicit lexicography the patentee
`
`provided for this term in the specification and replace it with an undefined, but apparently all-
`
`encompassing, meaning that would be broad enough to include how a lay person may understand
`
`the term band (e.g., a rubber band). Respondents’ arguments should be rejected because they
`
`ignore the “context of the specification and prosecution history” and the point of view of “a
`
`person of ordinary skill in the art.” Id.
`
`
`
`Respondents argue that the patentee’s explicit definition for the term “band”—“data-
`
`capable device that may be worn as a strap or band around an arm, leg, ankle, or other bodily
`
`appendage or feature,” ’522 at 4:17–21, should be ignored in favor of “a common meaning that
`
`has been used in a variety of contexts over a long period of time.” Respondents’ Initial Br. at 11.
`
`Notably, Respondents do not say what that “common meaning” is, but their examples of such “a
`
`common meaning” illustrate the fallacy of this argument: “[P]eople intuitively understand what
`
`is meant by terms such as rubber band or headband.” Id. The patentee recognized that the
`
`common meaning of the term—which can encompass a rubber band by example—does not
`
`capture the nature or context of the invention. For this reason, the term is explicitly defined in the
`
`patent. The patentee’s definition should not be ignored.
`
`
`
`Respondents also argue that the term “band” should be given an all-encompassing
`
`meaning because the term is “so commonly understood that in recent years, the phrase ‘fitness
`
`band’ . . . has entered the public lexicon.” Id. As a threshold matter, Respondents fail to provide
`
`any evidence of the current “public lexicon” understanding of the term “fitness band” or to
`
`explain how that alleged meaning is consistent with the context of the invention. More
`
`importantly, patent terms are not construed based on the common understanding in recent years,
`
`but rather as they would be understood by a person of ordinary skill in the art at the time of the
`

`
`invention. Innova/Pure Water, Inc. v. Safari Water Filtration Systems, Inc., 381 F.3d 1111, 1116
`
`(Fed. Cir. 2004) (“A court construing a patent claim seeks to accord a claim the meaning it
`
`would have to a person of ordinary skill in the art at the time of the invention.”). Thus, even
`
`assuming that the term “fitness band” has acquired some common public understanding—as
`
`Respondents contend—this understanding does not affect the patentee’s chosen definition for the
`
`term or a person of ordinary skill in the art’s understanding of the term at the time of the
`
`invention.
`
`
`
`Respondents’ attempt to equate the patentee’s definition of the term “band” to another
`
`hypothetical—“a camera that ‘may be worn around one’s neck’”—erects a strawman and then
`
`knocks it down. Id. at 12. Contrary to Respondents’ argument, the patentee’s definition for the
`
`term “band” defines the necessary structure for the device—that it “may be worn as a strap or
`
`band around an arm, leg, ankle, or other bodily appendage or feature.” ’522, 4:20-21. Staff
`
`agrees. Staff’s Initial Br. at 8 (“the term ‘band’ does give some additional meaning and
`
`structure—though minimal—to the claim body’s listing of electronic components”).3 On the
`
`other hand, Respondents’ hypothetical camera does not describe any structure making it capable
`
`of being worn around one’s neck. Had a patentee defined a special type of camera specifically
`
`designed for such a use case as part of an invention in a patent, such lexicography too would be
`
`controlling.
`
`
`3 Consistently, Staff also states that “the preamble term ‘band’ is only necessary to the
`body of claim 2 to the extent that it recites a vessel or structure that holds/contains the recited
`electronic components and adds some meaning or life to the body of the claim.” Staff’s Initial
`Br. at 9. The “data-capable” portion of Complainants’ proposed construction reflects the
`claimed device’s structure of containing the recited electronic components, not merely that it
`contains sensors from the other elements of the claim. Similarly, the remainder of
`Complainants’ proposed construction addresses the structure of the band that is not captured in
`the remainder of claim 2. Staff’s Initial Brief appears to agree but does not address why the ALJ
`should decline to construe the term as defined by the patentee as Complainants propose.

`
`

`
`
`
`Respondents also erroneously conflate the patentee’s definition of the term “band” with
`
`exemplary embodiments, in attempting to argue that the term should not be limited to such
`
`embodiments. Id. at 12-13. The specification language on which Complainants rely for their
`
`proposed construction is not merely an embodiment—it is the patentee’s clear definition for the
`
`term: “Although used interchangeably, ‘strapband’ and ‘band’ may be used to refer to the same
`
`or substantially similar data-capable device that may be worn as a strap or band around an arm,
`
`leg, ankle, or other bodily appendage or feature.” ’522 at 4:17–21. All described embodiments
`
`are consistent with this definition, including those cited by Respondents. For example,
`
`Respondents rely on the following passages in the specification: (1) bands also “may be attached
`
`directly or indirectly to other items, organic, or inorganic, animate, or static,” id. at 4:20–23; (2)
`
`“bands [] can be attached to the body or affixed to clothing, or otherwise disposed at a relatively
`
`predetermined distance from a user’s person,” id. at 4:28–29; (3) bands 900 and the elements
`
`described above in connection with FIGS. 1–9[] may be varied in type, configuration, function,
`
`structure, or other aspects, without limitation to any of the examples shown and described.” id. at
`
`19:50–53. Respondents’ Initial Br. at 12-13. Nothing in these descriptions is inconsistent with
`
`the patentee’s definition of the band. That the described bands may also be attached to “other
`
`items,” may be affixed to “clothing,” or may be of varied type, configuration, function, or
`
`structure, does not take away from the defined requirement that the band be a “data-capable
`
`device that may be worn as a strap or band around an arm, leg, ankle, or other bodily appendage
`
`or feature.”
`
`
`
`One thing Complainants and Respondents agree on is that Staff’s alternative
`
`construction—a “substantially flat encircling strip”—is incorrect because it appears to
`
`impermissibly exclude the patent’s disclosed embodiments. Respondents’ Initial Br. at 13.

`
`

`
`Staff’s initial brief does not address this defect in Staff’s proposed construction. Moreover, even
`
`if Staff’s understanding of the terms “substantially flat” and “encircling” did not exclude the
`
`disclosed embodiments, this proposed construction adds unnecessary and unhelpful ambiguity
`
`that can and should be avoided.

`
`The term “forming . . . a molding” does not require construction and should be given its
`
`REVISED: No construction
`necessary.
`If
`the
`term
`is
`construed,
`the
`proper
`construction is “making with a

`
`plain and ordinary meaning. Indeed, all parties agree that “forming … a molding” involves use
`
`of a mold. See Respondents’ Initial Br. at 6 (noting the “point of agreement by Staff and the
`
`parties” that the claimed process “requires using a mold”); Staff’s Initial Br. at 5-6 (noting the
`
`parties’ agreement that “forming” a “molding” requires that “the formation process used in
`
`claimed methods must involve use of a mold in order for the resulting coverings to qualify as
`
`‘molding[s]’”). As Respondents acknowledge in their brief, this understanding also accords with
`
`the dictionary definition of the term “molding.” Respondents’ Initial Br. at 6 n. 3. Accordingly,
`
`the term needs no construction and should be given its plain and ordinary meaning.
`
`Respondents’ argument that this term needs construction focuses on what they perceive
`
`to be “a fundamental disagreement” regarding whether the formed molding must cover at least
`
`one covering. Respondents draw this perceived disagreement from Complainants’ and Staff’s
`
`original alternative construction proposal: “making with a mold.” Id. at 6. In Respondents’
`
`view, this original alternative construction proposal “would read out the limitation that the
`
`Complainants’ Rebuttal Claim Construction Brief
`3997143v1/014661
`
`9
`
`Inv. No. 337-TA-963
`

`
`

`
`molding be formed such that it covers the underlying device, and replace it with an entirely new
`
`limitation that requires the mold to cover the underlying device.” Id. (emphasis in original).
`
`This perceived disagreement, however, appears to be a misunderstanding stemming from the fact
`
`that Complainants’ and Staff’s original alternative constructions did not perfectly fit
`
`grammatically with the surrounding claim language. See Staff’s Initial Br. at 6 (acknowledging
`
`Respondents’ argument that Staff’s and Complainants’ original proposed alternative construction
`
`“cannot be literally [] substituted in the claim language without altering its meaning due to the
`
`lack of a direct object in the [original] proposed construction.”). As the parties’ initial briefs
`
`make clear, all parties agree that the molding, not the mold, should cover the underlying device.
`
`The lack of any disagreement on this issue supports Complainants’ and Staff’s view that the term
`
`needs no construction and should be given its plain and ordinary meaning.
`
`Should the ALJ determine that it is necessary to construe the term, Complainants have
`
`modified their alternative proposal to “using a mold to form a … material” to address the
`
`grammatical awkwardness of their original alternative construction. There should be no such
`
`controversy with Complainants’ modified proposal. As described above, all parties agree that
`
`“forming” a “molding” requires using a mold. In their Initial Brief, Respondents’ key argument
`
`was that the term requires that “the material formed by the mold ‘covers all or substantially all’
`
`of the underlying component or device.” Complainants’ current proposal is consistent with that
`
`argument. Applying the revised proposal to the first relevant limitation in Claim 1 yields
`
`“selectively [using a mold to form a] first inner [material] that covers all or substantially all of
`
`the at least one covering,” which mirrors what Respondents contend is the correct understanding
`
`of the term.
`
`Staff similarly modified its alternative construction proposal to “making with a mold . . .

`

`
`a molding.” Complainants do not object to Staff’s proposal as it reflects the plain and ordinary
`
`meaning of the term, but Complainants believe that their proposal avoids the redundancy
`
`inherent in use of the term “mold” twice and provides more clarity to the extent any is deemed
`
`necessary beyond the plain and ordinary meaning of the term.
`
`
`
`Respondents’ proposed construction should be rejected because it would impermissibly
`
`restrict the scope of the claim limitation. Respondents attempt to inject a requirement into the
`
`claim that forming a molding must involve “applying” material using a mold. As explained in
`
`detail in Complainants’ Initial Brief, the specification makes clear that although a molding may
`
`be formed by applying the material into a mold cavity that surrounds the framework, it is not
`
`required to be so formed and it may be varied in its structure. Complainants’ Initial Br. at 12.
`
`Respondents’ Initial Brief fails to provide any argument for why their additional, restrictive
`
`limitation is appropriate or how it is supported by any intrinsic evidence. But as Complainants
`
`explained in their Initial Brief, in attempting to insert this additional requirement into the claim
`
`Respondents are improperly seeking to limit the claim to certain described embodiments.
`
`Complainants’ Initial Br. at 11-12. Claim scope must not be limited to any particular
`
`embodiment unless the patentee expressed a clear intent to do so. Saunders Group, Inc. v.
`
`Comfortrac, Inc., 492 F.3d 1326, 1332 (Fed. Cir. 2007). Accordingly, the ALJ should reject
`
`Respondents’ proposed construction.4
`
`
`
`
`4 Staff notes that “Respondents do not appear to have ascribed any particular meaning to
`the word ‘apply’ in their proposed construction in their Initial Brief.” Staff’s Initial Br. at 6 n.2.
`Respondents’ failure to provide any support in their brief for this attempted narrowing of the
`claim should lead the ALJ to reject the erroneous construction.
