`
`interaction mean? Strike that. What does the term
`
`"human-computer interaction" mean?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form. You can
`
`answer.
`
` THE WITNESS: The term "human-computer
`
`interaction" refers to a broad field generally
`
`encompassing everything relating to the user experience
`
`of technical systems. I often think of it as including
`
`the design stages, which involving working with users to
`
`understand their needs, and the design of technical
`
`solutions, the construction of technical systems, and
`
`the analysis of those systems, including how people use
`
`those systems.
`
` The range of the technical domains of the
`
`systems that are included are really arbitrary. It
`
`includes everything -- all technical systems from
`
`medical systems to consumer mobile systems, business
`
`systems, educational systems, and all associated user
`
`groups that would be using those systems. The field
`
`includes academic scholars, industrial researchers, and
`
`practitioners. So it is a kind of a sometimes referred
`
`to as a big tent field encompassing many areas.

`document which has been labeled Exhibit 1013.
`
` (Whereupon Exhibit 1013 was marked for
`
` identification.)
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Do you recognize this
`
`document?
`
`A. Yes, I do.
`
`Q. What is this document?
`
`A. This is the document that I referred to as
`
`Goertz in my declaration.
`
`Q. In the field of human-computer interaction,
`
`what is a dialog?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` THE WITNESS: The term "dialog" is a very
`
`broad term that could include many different kinds of
`
`parts of the design process and user interface
`
`subsystems. It might include sample conversations that
`
`some users might have about a system. It might include
`
`recordings of conversations that users have had between
`
`each other. Might represent interactions that a user
`
`has had interacting with a system. It might include the
`
`user interface, components of a user interface that
`
`respond to a user and display information to a user. So
`
`it's a very broad term by itself.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. When the term "dialog" is used
`
`with respect to a user interface, is a dialog always

`
`responsive to the interaction of a user?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` THE WITNESS: So as I said, the term "dialog"
`
`in the field of human-computer interaction is a very
`
`broad term, and there's many interfaces in the world.
`
`And so dialogs and user interfaces can be used in many
`
`ways. I would say that sometimes a dialog can be
`
`displayed in response to some user action, and sometimes
`
`a dialog can be displayed by a computer system that is
`
`not in response to a user action.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Is a lock screen an exhibit of
`
`a dialog?
`
`A. There are many kinds of lock screens. I have
`
`not analyzed all lock screens on all devices. I
`
`certainly could imagine that some lock screens might be
`
`implemented with dialogs, but it is certainly the case
`
`that many dialogs -- sorry -- many lock screens are not.
`
`Q. What would differentiate a lock screen that is
`
`a dialog versus one that is a dialog?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` THE WITNESS: Again, I have not analyzed all
`
`lock screens and how -- the different possible ways that
`
`they are implemented. But I think what's relevant in my
`
`declaration regarding Goertz is that the lock screen
`
`shown in Figure 13 is a blank screen, which is clearly

`
`not a dialog, and in fact, the screen is off, since it
`
`is the same screen -- sorry -- since it is the same
`
`figure that is used in Figure 9 where the power is
`
`clearly off. So a person of skill reading Goertz would
`
`see that its screen in the locked state is off.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Is it your opinion that the
`
`screen shown in Figure 13 of Goertz is a locked screen?
`
`A. In my declaration on page 77, I describe how
`
`Goertz teaches the limitation 1f, and I explain here in
`
`a few places that Figure 13 shows that there's an
`
`illustration showing the device when the phone is
`
`locked.
`
` I do notice a few typos. Looks like I have
`
`accidentally spelled Goertz without the R. That may be
`
`on a few pages. So I have spelled it G-O-E-T-Z. Please
`
`accept my apologies and know that I meant the same
`
`Goertz we are talking about.
`
`Q. Can you tell me which report -- or which
`
`declaration you're looking at?
`
`A. Good point. The '373, 613.
`
`Q. And you said paragraph 70 --
`
`A. Page 77.
`
`Q. Thank you. I thought it was Goetz for a
`
`while, too, actually. Thank you for that clarification.

`
` THE WITNESS: Just to complete my answer about
`
`Goertz's Figure 13, paragraph 24, Goertz describes
`
`Figure 13 by saying that it illustrates pressing the
`

` MR. CECIL: Q. Do you agree that Goertz does
`
`not explicitly disclose the details involved in actually
`
`performing fingerprint recognition?
`
`A. In paragraph 61 of Goertz, it says that,
`
`"Further, in accordance with an embodiment of the
`
`present invention, a touchscreen for a phone captioned
`
`'Key lock high security' is shown in Figure 15. When
`
`the home key is activated, such as by touching the home
`
`key, a keypad is displayed and a user is prompted to
`
`enter a security code. Subsequently, the phone cannot
`
`be unlocked unless the security code is entered.
`
`Optionally, additional security is implemented by use of
`
`a fingerprint identification, wherein the phone cannot

`
`be unlocked unless a fingerprint is authenticated."
`
`Additionally, as I explained in the technology
`
`background of my report in paragraphs 36 through 38,
`
`identifying users with fingerprint readers was well
`
`known to a person of skill in the art, and in fact,
`
`commercially available fingerprint readers were readily
`
`available. So it would be straightforward for a person
`
`of skill in the art to use a fingerprint reader in
`
`unlocking a device such as that shown in Goertz.
`
`Additionally, my opinion about this ground is
`
`that Goertz in combination with Davis and iOS together
`
`disclose all of the limitations of the '373 patent.
`
`Q.
`
`In Goertz, is the fingerprint authentication
`
`displayed after a user inputs a security code?
`
`MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
`THE WITNESS: Sorry. Could you repeat the
`
`question, please?
`
`MR. CECIL: Q. I'll withdraw the question and
`
`say it a different way. Is the fingerprint
`
`identification implemented after a user inputs a
`
`security code when the phone is in "Key lock high
`
`security" mode?
`
`MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
`THE WITNESS: So as I said in my previous
`
`answer, my opinion is that Goertz, Davis, and iOS

`
`together teach all of the claims of the '373 patent, and
`
`that Goertz itself explains quite clearly that there are
`
`a range of solutions a person of skill in the art could
`
`use to unlock a phone such as using a code, as well as a
`
`fingerprint, and that I focused my analysis on Davis to
`
`show the specific steps that a person would use to
`
`combine with Goertz for performing Goertz's first
`
`function as described on page 79 of my declaration.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. So you said Goertz clearly
`
`explains that there are a range of solutions that could
`
`be used. To me it's not very clear. I'm wondering if
`
`you can help me out. Does the fingerprint
`
`identification function happen after the security code
`
`is entered in Goertz?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` THE WITNESS: As I said, Goertz clearly
`
`discloses that there are a range of solutions available
`
`to the person of skill in the art reading Goertz to
`
`unlock a phone, including entering a code and using
`
`their fingerprint. And my opinion is that it is the
`
`combination of Goertz, Davis, and iOS that together
`
`teach these limitations.
`
` And on page 79 of my declaration, I explained
`
`how Davis teaches the specific steps for performing
`
`Goertz's first function, which is fingerprint

`
`Goertz's pressing of the home key.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. So fingerprint authentication
`
`happens before any keypad is displayed and a user is
`
`prompted to enter a security code in Goertz?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` THE WITNESS: So as I said, a person reading
`
`Goertz would find a clear disclosure of multiple ways of
`
`unlocking the phone, including entering a code and using
`
`a fingerprint.
`
` (Interruption in the proceedings.)
`

`Davis's teachings to perform Goertz's first function of

`

`
` MR. CECIL: Q. You're going to be handed an
`
`exhibit which is marked as 1015.
`
` (Whereupon Exhibit 1015 was marked for
`
` identification.)
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Do you recognize this
`
`document?
`
`A. Yes, I do.
`
`Q. What is this document?
`
`A. This document is the document that I describe
`
`as Davis in my declaration.
`
`Q. Would you turn to paragraph 50, please, in
`
`Davis. I think it's line 7 of the paragraph, Davis
`
`says, "If a match is found between the two passwords,
`
`the microprocessor presents (step 416) a dialog on the
`
`display to prompt the user to provide a fingerprint
`
`candidate." What does dialog mean in that context?
`
`A. I think in this context, the dialog of box 416
`
`would be user interface elements on the display that
`
`would give a user information regarding fingerprints.
`
`Q. What supports your opinion that that's what
`
`the dialog does? Strike that question.

`

`
` What in Davis supports your opinion that
`
`that's what the dialog does?
`
`A. Well, the sentence that you read explains that
`
`the microprocessor 228 presents a dialog on display 226.
`
`Those boxes refer to Figure 2, where I see the
`
`microprocessor 228 and display 226 as being conventional
`
`components of the computing system, and the use of the
`
`terminology in box 416 "present fingerprint dialog" in
`
`that context would tell a person of skill in the art
`
`reading this that presenting on a display is the kind of
`
`displaying on a user interface in the way that I just
`
`described.
`
`Q. Referring back to that sentence that we talked
`
`about a few minutes ago, what does it mean to prompt the
`
`user?
`
`A. I think in general, the term "prompt" -- was
`
`it "prompt" or "prompt the user"?
`
`Q. "Prompt the user."
`
`A. I think in general the term "prompt the user"
`
`is some output of a computer system to notify the user
`
`that they should do something, or maybe that's even too
`
`specific. They could even just be prompting the user
`
`really to notify the user about anything. Maybe --
`
`that's right. I think it would just let the user know
`
`of something.

`
`Q. What does it mean to prompt the user to
`
`provide a fingerprint candidate?
`
`A. So I think what I just said is right. And in
`
`this case, the thing that the user would be being
`
`notified of would be to provide their fingerprint
`
`information.
`
`Q. So a notification would pop up on the screen
`
`that would say, "Put your finger down," or, "Put your
`
`thumb down"?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` THE WITNESS: I don't know exactly -- well, a
`
`person of skill would understand that there's many
`
`different ways that a prompt could be provided. Even a
`
`simple beep. I don't know that Davis specifies exactly
`
`the form of such a prompt.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Is a beep a dialog?
`
`A. I think a dialog would normally need to
`
`require some kind of display. So it probably would not
`
`be a dialog.
`
`Q. So to present a dialog on a display to prompt
`
`the user to provide a fingerprint candidate, then what
`
`would be required in Davis?
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` THE WITNESS: I'm sorry, I don't think I
`
`understand the question.

`
`MR. CECIL: Q. What would the form of the
`
`dialog be in Davis, as discussed in paragraph 50, that
`
`would prompt the user to provide a fingerprint
`
`candidate?
`
`A.
`
`I think this is a general disclosure, and a
`
`person of skill reading this would understand that they
`
`could use any specific design for dialog that they
`
`wanted.
`
`Q.
`
`Would you agree that Davis teaches using a
`
`combination of procedures to unlock a device?
`
`MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
`THE WITNESS: I think Davis teaches that there
`
`are many possible solutions available for identifying a
`
`user. And in paragraph 71, Davis makes it quite clear
`
`that the different authentication and unlocking inputs
`
`are customizable when it says, quote, "As should be
`
`clear to a person of ordinary skill in the art, the
`
`order in which various authentication factors are
`
`provided by the user should not be considered to be
`
`limited to the order in which the authentication factors
`
`are provided in the example embodiments presented
`
`herein. Indeed, many embodiments will only require a
`
`subset of the authentication factors discussed in the
`
`app" -- "in this application."

`So a person of skill reading this would

`
`clearly understand that the point of Davis was to
`
`present a range of solutions that the person of skill
`
`could then choose from in their ordinary practice of
`
`designing a particular system. And I explained in my
`
`declaration an example of that customization that
`
`combines Davis with Goertz in a way that directly meets
`
`the claim limitations.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Could you turn to page 27 of
`
`Exhibit 1003?
`
`A. Did you say page 27?
`
`Q. Yes. You see the Figure 4 that's been
`
`modified there?
`
`A. Yes, I do.
`
`Q. Did you modify that figure?
`
`A. Yes, I did.
`
`Q. Can you explain how a user would begin --
`
`sorry. Strike that.
`
` Could you explain the process by which a user
`
`unlocks a device following Figure 4?
`
`A. I explain this process in paragraph 61, where
`
`I lay out the steps that shows in this case what Griffin
`
`would look like modified by Davis, although I'll note
`
`that so far we have not yet talked about Griffin today.
`

`

`
` MS. HIGGINS: Objection; form.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Sorry. Modified Figure 4.
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Same objection.
`
` THE WITNESS: Well, my point of modifying
`
`Figure 4 was precisely to show how, in this case, Davis
`
`would work with Griffin. And the point of that -- the
`
`point of my analysis is to, in fact, look at the
`
`combination of Griffin and Davis and also iOS to show
`
`how they read on the '373 claim limitations, because in
`
`this case, as I describe in paragraph 61, the user
`
`starts by pressing the home convenience button, which is
`
`a first input mechanism of Griffin, which then in 1a
`
`initiates an unlock command and then in 1b wakes the
`
`screen to display the fingerprint dialog as taught by
`
`Davis.
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. Are you willing to explain
`
`modified Figure 4 absent of a reference to Griffin?
`
`A. Well, as I said, the point of modified Figure
`
`4 is to show how Griffin, modified by the teachings of
`
`Davis, would work, but the modified Figure 4 of Davis
`
`starts at 1b in paragraph 61 of my declaration where,
`
`upon receiving the unlock command, it presents a
`
`fingerprint dialog and then goes on to receive the live
`
`scan, checks to see if the fingerprint is valid, and

`
`Q. Where in the modified Figure 4 of Davis does
`
`the system receive a biometric candidate?
`
`A. My analysis is about the '373 claims. Are you
`
`referring to a specific claim limitation of the '373
`
`patent?
`
`Q. I'm asking about where in Figure 4 Davis,
`
`which describes receiving biometric candidates, where
`
`Davis involves involving -- involves receiving a
`
`biometric candidate in the modified Figure 4.
`
`A. If we're going to be talking about Griffin,
`
`would you be willing to share the Griffin disclosure
`
`with me?

`
`Griffin, will you give it to him?

`

`
`Davis, and this paragraph is a very specific combination

`
`answer -- my analysis is about the two of them together.
`
`Q. I'm going to hand you what's been marked as
`
`Exhibit 1027.
`
` (Whereupon Exhibit 1027 was marked for
`
` identification.)
`
` MS. HIGGINS: Additionally, since we're
`
`talking about claim analysis, I don't actually have the
`
`'373 patent in front of me. Could you share that with
`
`me, as well?
`
` MR. CECIL: Q. You're going to be handed a
`
`document which has been labeled as Exhibit 1001. It
`
`should be the '373 patent. Let me know if you disagree.
`
` (Whereupon Exhibit 1001 was marked for
`

`
` MR. CECIL: Q. So in -- I don't think there's
`
`a question that's on the table, other than do you agree
`
`that you were handed the '373 patent? Do you agree that
`
`you've been handed the '373 patent?
`
`A. Yes, I have.
`
`Q. Great. Let's talk about Davis real quick.

`I'm sorry. Griffin. Would you turn to Figure 10 of
`
`Griffin, please. Does Figure 10 represent a finite

`disclose what I think a person of ordinary skill would
`
`be to understand finite state machines, including Figure
`
`10, and also Figures 2 and 3.
`
`Q. What does a circle represent in a finite state
