`Discussion Summary
`
`The proper construction of “TTL” is to the image plane
`
`The level of ordinary skill includes lens manufacturability
`
`Ogino’s lens assembly meets the TTL/EFL < 1.0 limitation
`
`A POSITA would have been motivated to set the
`diameter of Ogino’s first lens element to maintain a
`center-to-edge thickness ratio of less than 3.0

`electronic sensors because they had an image plane where film would be placed:

`
`• Summing the distances to L5 and adding Bf
`(back focal length) is distance to the image
`plane when the cover glass is removed, and
`this is “TL” in Ogino:

`

`A POSITA knows that the sensor in Ogino shifts to the new
`location of the image plane when the cover glass is removed
`• Dr. Sasián states that a POSITA would know to move the sensor to the
`shifted image plane when the cover glass is removed:

`

`Dr. Moore agrees that the sensor will shift to the location of
`the new image plane when the cover glass is removed
`
`• Dr. Moore agrees that the TTL is shorter
`when the cover glass is removed because
`the image plane shifts to the left:
`
`• Dr. Moore maintained the same position
`when asked by counsel:

`

`Cover glass is not included in calculation of TTL
`if excluded from the lens assembly
`
`• Dr. Moore agrees that cover glass is only
`counted in TTL if included in the system:
`
`• Dr. Moore also agrees with Dr. Sasián’s
`calculation of TTL from the Petition:

`

`Cover glass is not a required element in a lens assembly
`
`• Patent Owner argues that the cover glass is necessary when using an electronic sensor:
`
`• But the cover glass (i.e., “glass window”) is optional for all three embodiments of the ’568
`Patent, including embodiment 1, which includes an image sensor:

`

`Cover glass and a sensor in the ’568 Patent are optional
`elements of a lens system, not a lens assembly
`
`A lens assembly is just
`five lens elements:
`
`Cover glass and sensor
`are optional components
`of a lens system:

`

`A POSITA would have been motivated to manufacture Ogino’s
`first lens element to maximize the center-to-edge thickness
`
`• Ogino’s first lens element would be manufactured to maximize the
`edge thickness:

`
`

`

`Lens elements with lower center-to-edge thickness
`ratios are easier to manufacture
`
`• The Handbook of Optics teaches the benefits of designing a lens to support a
`center-to-edge thickness of less than 3.0 for easier manufacturing:

`Ex. 1019, p.81 cited in Petition at 41; Reply at 22
`
`DEMONSTRATIVE EXHIBIT — NOT EVIDENCE
`
`32
`
`32
`
`

`

`The Handbook of Optics does not teach away from Ogino’s
`first lens having a diameter 4.8% larger than the aperture
`
`• The Handbook of Optics teaches a desire for the diameter to be “considerably
`beyond” the aperture but Patent Owner does not show what “considerably
`beyond” means:
`
`Response at 51
`
`DEMONSTRATIVE EXHIBIT — NOT EVIDENCE
`
`33
`

`
`

`

`Ogino’s first lens element supports the claimed center-to-edge
`thickness ratios at a diameter considerably beyond the aperture
`
`• Ogino’s first lens element supports the lowest claimed center-to-edge thickness
`ratio at a diameter of up to 4.8% larger than the entrance aperture, well beyond
`the diameters supported by the embodiments of the ’568 patent:
`
`Ex. 1003, pp. 49, 71 cited in Petition at 43-44, 66
`
`DEMONSTRATIVE EXHIBIT — NOT EVIDENCE
`
`34
`

`
`

`

`Lens manufacturing best practices support limiting the center-to-
`edge thickness ratio to be less than 3 to 1
`
`• Beich teaches that a best practice when working with polymer optics is to
`maintain a center-to-edge thickness of less than 3 to 1:

`

`Beich does not teach away from applying its
`“rules of thumb” to Ogino’s lens assembly
`Patent Owner’s application of
`• A POSITA would not apply Beich’s rules to Ogino’s fifth
`Beich to Ogino’s fifth lens:

`

`A POSITA would have been motivated to manufacture Ogino’s
`first lens element to maximize the center-to-edge thickness
`
`• Thicker edges are also more desirable because they allow for more stable lens mounting:
