`
`
`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.

`• Simple substitution of one known element for another to obtain

`• 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,

`“[T]he act of providing someone an additional set of information without disrupting the ongoing provision of an initial set of
