`

`Obviousness under KSR
`
`• Helpful insights, however, need not become rigid and mandatory formula. If it is
`so applied, the TSM test is incompatible with this Court's precedents.
`• The diversity of inventive pursuits and of modern technology counsels against
`confining the obviousness analysis by a formalistic conception of the words
`teaching, suggestion, and motivation, or by overemphasizing the importance of
`published articles and the explicit content of issued patents.
`• In many fields there may be little discussion of obvious techniques or
`combinations, and market demand, rather than scientific literature, may often
`drive design trends.
`• Granting patent protection to advances that would occur in the ordinary course
`without real innovation retards progress and may, for patents combining
`previously known elements, deprive prior inventions of their value or utility. . . .
`But a court errs where, as here, it transforms general principle into a rigid rule
`limiting the obviousness inquiry.

`Multiple rationales support obviousness determination
`
`Petitioner’s Expert
`• Simple substitution of one known element for another to obtain
`predictable results (Ex. 1020, ¶¶ 210, 217, 224, 231)
`• Combining prior art element according to known methods to yield
`predictable results (Ex. 1020, ¶¶ 209, 216, 223, 230)
`• Improved similar systems in same way (Ex. 1020, ¶¶ 211-12, 218-19,
`225-26, 232-33)
`• Design choice for a POSITA (Ex. 1020, ¶¶213, 220, 227, 234)
`• Obvious to try (Ex. 1020, ¶¶ 213, 220, 227, 234)

`• “One shows that one is ‘in possession’ of the invention by describing the
`invention, with all its claimed limitations, not that which makes it obvious.
`. . . [T]he specification must contain an equivalent description of the claimed
`subject matter. A description which renders obvious the invention for which an
`earlier filing date is sought is not sufficient.”

`• Claim required “memory is capable of associatively storing” (FWD 89)

`• Original disclosure describes:
`• posted video, determining action spots based on posted video recordings that have occurred at action spots, but not
`display of those posted video recordings in a pop-up display at a determined action spot (Ex. 2007 ¶ 0048)

`“[C]laims directed to a single display of information collected from various sources are abstract.”
`“[T]he collection, organization, and display of two sets of information on a generic display device is abstract absent a specific
`improvement to the way computers [or other technologies] operate.” (citations omitted)
`“[T]he act of providing someone an additional set of information without disrupting the ongoing provision of an initial set of
`information is an abstract idea.”
`“[C]laims directed to displaying two different information sets sequentially are abstract.”
