`Improper to Import Limitations From Specification

`
`“Though understanding the claim language may be aided by explanations contained
`in the written description, it is important not to import into a claim limitation that
`are not part of the claim. For example, a particular embodiment appearing in the
`written description may not be read into a claim when the claim language is
`broader than the embodiment”
`
`Claim should be construed to include both embodiments

`Reddy Discloses Prioritization for Each Viewpoint
`
`When the viewpoint changes,
`Reddy repeats the
`prioritization for the tiles
`associated with the new
`viewpoint
`
`For the second user-
`controlled viewpoint, Reddy
`prioritizes:
`1)
`lower resolution tiles
`(i.e., red tiles) first
`2) medium resolution
`tiles (i.e., green tiles)
`second
`3) high resolution tiles
`(i.e., blue tiles) third

`
`
`Reddy Discloses Prioritization Between Viewpoints
`
`• Reddy’s “prefetching” and “flyover” features prioritize
`requests between two viewpoints:
`
`• Reddy prioritizes image requests along the user-controlled
`flight path
`
`• Reddy prioritizes image requests from earlier viewpoints
`before the image requests from later viewpoints to create
`“flyover” effect

`

`
`
`
`Reddy’s Viewpoints Are “User-Controlled”
`
`• Reddy’s “prefetching” and “flyover” features involve two
`“user-controlled image viewpoints” (i.e., two viewpoints
`controlled by the user, e.g., by user navigational controls)
`
`• Bradium’s definition, accepted by Unified, does not require
`direct selection of the viewpoint by the user (e.g., input of
`specific coordinates)
`
`• Rather, Bradium’s definition of “user-controlled” allows the
`user to use navigational controls to control the viewpoint
`• For example, setting a flight path using a mouse to control
`direction and speed

`Rosasco Discloses Prioritization
`
`Rosasco discloses:
`
`1) a user inputs a texture modulation request
`
`2)
`
`3)
`
`the system determines which image sets are needed to
`fulfill request
`
`image sets are prioritized based on the viewpoints of the
`user
`Ø “[s]ets more closely parallel with the line sight are
`given priority in the sorting” to provide “helpful and
`informative display[s]” to the user
`
`Ex. 1018, 3:27-30; 9:24-27

`

`
`A POSA Would Have Applied Rosasco’s Teachings to Reddy
`
`• A POSA would have applied Rosasco’s teachings to Reddy by
`having Reddy’s system obtain the tiles in the order that
`would be most “helpful and informative" to the user.
`
`• Reddy discloses obtaining tiles from multiple viewpoints.
`
`• Reddy provides examples of which tiles could be prioritized:
`those that are nearer and those that are of lower resolution.
`
`• Applying Rosasco’s teachings to Reddy would result in Reddy
`prioritizing tile requests (e.g., based on nearness or
`resolution) and issuing the requests according to the
`assigned priorities.
