`

`Patent Owner’s Reading Of “In Response To the One-Time Pressing Of The Activation
`Button, The First Function Is Performed” Is Based On An Incorrect Claim Interpretation
`
`Petitioner:
`Plain language of the claim.
`
`“in response to the one-time pressing of the
`activation button, the first function
`[fingerprint authentication] is performed”
`
`Patent Owner:
`
`“in response to the one-time pressing of the
`activation button, the first function
`[fingerprint authentication] is performed”
`excludes “another user input to complete the
`fingerprint authentication function”

`
`SR1, 10, 17-18; POR1, 13, 16-22.
`SR2. 10, 17; POR2, 13, 16-23.
`
`Patent Owner argues that the claims exclude “another user input to complete the fingerprint
`authentication function”
`SR1, 10, 17-18; SR2, 10, 17.
`
`But the claims necessarily require two inputs:
`
`•
`
`a one-time “press” of an activation button. This is a first input.
`
`• when the first function is fingerprint authentication, the fingerprint sensor scans a
`fingerprint. The fingerprint scan is a second input.

`The Combination of Griffin and Davis Discloses Turning On The
`Display And Performing A Fingerprint Authentication Function In
`Response To A One-Time Pressing Of The Activation Button
`Davis teaches performing a function (fingerprint authentication) in response to an
`unlock command (e.g., Griffin’s pressing of the home/convenience button):
`
`• Receive an unlock command
`• Display a fingerprint dialog (i.e., a lock screen)
`• Scan a fingerprint and unlock the device if the fingerprint is valid

`
`

`

`The Combination of Griffin and Davis Discloses the Claim
`Even Under Patent Owner’s Incorrect Interpretation
`Even if the claims required a single user action to both press the activation
`button and scan a fingerprint (they do not), Griffin discloses turning on the
`display and unlocking in response to a single, continuous user action:
`Griffin:
`“Accordingly, the embodiments described herein provide a method, comprising:
`detecting a single, continuous unlock action applied to at least two input
`mechanisms on a locked electronic device; and unlocking the electronic device in
`response to said detecting.”
`
`-00613/-00614 Ex. 1027 (Griffin) ¶30; see also id., Abstract, ¶¶35-36, 88, Figs. 5A-C.
`“[A]n example of the single-gesture or continuous-action input is illustrated as it
`may be implemented on a handheld mobile device 100, such as a smartphone
`equipped with a touchscreen display 510.”
`
`-00613/-00614 Ex. 1027 (Griffin) ¶86.
`
`In the combination of Griffin and Davis, the single, continuous user action
`includes two inputs, just like the Claims: (1) a button press (e.g., Griffin’s
`Fig. 11 step 1100), and (2) a second input (e.g., Davis’s fingerprint scan).

`

`The Combination of Griffin and Davis Discloses Turning On The Display
`And Performing A Fingerprint Authentication Function In Response To A
`One-Time Pressing Of The Activation Button
`Patent Owner Argues:
`Petitioner’s modification of Figure 4 is inappropriate because “Davis never discloses that its complex
`authentication procedure can be reduced down to a simple fingerprint authentication.”
`POR1, 21-22; POR2, 22.
`But Petitioner’s modified Figure 4 is straightforward and expressly taught by Davis
`Figure 4:
`
`-00613/-00614 Ex. 1015 (Davis),
`Fig. 4 (modified).
`
`Davis:
`“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 this application.”

`
`-00613/-00614 Ex. 1013 (Goertz) ¶¶60-61.
`
`Thus, in response to a one-time
`press of Goertz’s home key, (1)
`the display is turned on and (2) a
`high security function such as
`fingerprint authentication is
`initiated to unlock the phone.

`

`

`A POSITA Would Have Been Motivated to Combine Griffin,
`Davis, and iOS
`Dr. Bederson (fingerprint function):
`“It would have been obvious to a POSITA to use a fingerprint function, as taught by Davis,
`for the second unlock input mechanism of Griffin. A POSITA would have been motivated to
`do so because biometric inputs provided higher levels of security against unauthorized
`users and increased user convenience. See, e.g., Ex. 1014, 1:24-37.”

`-00614 Ex. 1003 (Bederson) ¶¶61-63; Pet.2, 17-19.
`
`Dr. Bederson (camera and power button):
`“A POSITA would have been motivated, and it would have been obvious, to include a camera
`and power button, as taught by Davis and/or iOS, in Griffin’s analogous mobile device, to
`provide photo-taking and power-switching capabilities to the device. Such combination
`would have been, for example, the use of known techniques (camera and power button
`components) to improve similar devices (the mobile devices of Griffin, Davis, and iOS) in
`the same way (to provide camera functionality and an actuatable button for toggling
`power).”

`-00614 Ex. 1003 (Bederson) ¶¶68-72; Pet.2, 21-25.
`“[I]f a technique has been used to improve one device, and a [POSITA] would recognize that
`it would improve similar devices in the same way, using the technique is obvious unless its
`actual application is beyond his or her skill.” KSR Int’l Co. v. Teleflex Inc., 550 U.S. 398, 417,

`

`A POSITA Would Have Been Motivated to Combine Griffin,
`Davis, and iOS
`Patent Owner Argues:
`“[A] POSITA would not combine Griffin with Davis … because they each teach away from the
`simplicity achieved by the challenged claims.” Griffin requires two separate user inputs.
`POR1, 25; POR2, 27.
`But the claims are not limited to a single input to both press the activation button and
`scan a fingerprint (see slides 5-10)
`And Griffin teaches multiple inputs should be simple so that they can be “interpreted as
`a continuous single action.”

`Patent Owner Argues:

`Davis teaches using two- or three-factor authentication.
`POR1, 25; POR2, 27.
`But Davis also expressly discloses using a subset of the authentication factors.
`Davis:
`“[M]any embodiments will only require a subset of the authentication factors discussed in this
`application.”
`-00613/-00614 Ex. 1015 (Davis), ¶¶71, 14.
`And, Davis explains that using multiple authentication factors may be time consuming.
`Davis:
`“While three-factor authentication is secure, three-factor authentication may be considered
`time consuming to employ every time access to the computer of interest is desired. It is clear that
`any gains in efficiency in accomplishing the task for which access to the computer is desired
`would be welcome.”

`

`A POSITA Would Have Been Motivated to Combine Griffin,
`Davis, and iOS
`Patent Owner Argues:
`“Petitioner’s proposed combination is riddled with hindsight bias because it uses
`the [’373/’419] patent as a roadmap.”
`But, as Dr. Bederson explained:
`“It would have been obvious to a POSITA to use a fingerprint function, as taught by Davis, for
`the second unlock input mechanism of Griffin. A POSITA would have been motivated to do so
`because biometric inputs provided higher levels of security against unauthorized users
`and increased user convenience.”

`-00614 Ex. 1003 (Bederson) ¶63; Pet.2, 17-19.
`• A POSITA would have been motivated to add iOS’s and Davis’s mobile device
`functions (e.g., camera, power button, long-press) and settings menu to Griffin’s
`mobile device, and would have recognized these would have been useful
`resources to include in any smartphone device and would have been an
`application of known techniques to improve similar devices in the same
`way.

`device is highly customizable.

`IPR2019-00613 (‘373): Patent Owner’s suggestion that Petitioner failed to identify
`motivation to combine for Elements [1e], [1f], and [1j] (POR1, 26-30) is incorrect.
`Element Patent Owner’s
`Characterization Petitioner’s Response
`[1e]
`“No motivation listed in
`iOS teaches a separate power button, and Petitioner explained
`claim chart. No clear
`in detail the motivation to combine for that element, e.g., to
`explanation as to why one
`provide power-switching capabilities using a well-known

`“cites to [1f] and [1h],
`otherwise no motivation
`provided”
`
`POR1, 29.
`
`Petitioner relied on Griffin for this element, not Griffin and iOS,
`and thus no motivation to combine is needed. Griffin alone
`discloses [1f], and iOS was cited as confirmation that Griffin’s
`disclosure “conforms to conventional device operations.”
`
`Pet.1, 33-34.
`
`Petitioner referred back to [1f] through [1h] (which in turn
`reference the applicable “further discussions and motivation to
`combine”), and not “[1f] and [1h]” as Patent Owner asserts.
`Aside from [1f] which is discussed above, Patent Owner does
`not argue that there is any specific deficiency in the
`motivations referenced for Element [1j].
