`
`(EX2003
`(Sprenger
`Decl.) at ¶ 68)
`
`1. A method comprising:
`
`(a) receiving a keystroke indicator signal from a remote control device, wherein the keystroke
`indicator signal indicates a key on said remote control device that a user has selected;
`
`(b) generating a key code within a key code generator device using the keystroke indictor signal;
`
`(c) modulating said key code onto a carrier signal, thereby generating a key code signal; and
`
`(d) transmitting said key code signal from said key code generator device to said remote control
`device.

`
`Petitioner’s expert’s approach is legally impermissible (Pet. at 23-25):
`“’‘When prior art references require selective combination by the court to render obvious a subsequent
`invention, there must be some reason for the combination other than the hindsight gleaned from the invention
`itself." Interconnect Planning Corp. v. Feil, 774 F. 2d 1132, 1143 (Fed. Cir. 1985). Otherwise, we "cannot use
`hindsight reconstruction to pick and choose among isolated disclosures in the prior art to deprecate the
`claimed invention.’ In re Fine, 837 F.2d 1071, 1075 (Fed. Cir. 1988). Here, the Examiner's selection of just the
`removable plate feature of Finch to the exclusion of the accompanying and interrelated driving mechanism and
`follower smacks of hindsight reasoning.” Ex Parte Creed Taylor, No. 2017-009744, 2018 Pat. App. LEXIS 6083, at
`*7-9 (P.T.A.B. Aug. 1, 2018) (emphasis added).
`
`“We hold that the district court's finding that there would not have been a motivation to combine is not clearly
`erroneous. The district court correctly acknowledged that it is not enough for Toro to merely demonstrate that
`elements of the claimed invention were independently known in the prior art. Often, every element of a
`claimed invention can be found in the prior art. In re Kotzab, 217 F.3d 1365, 1370 (Fed. Cir. 2000). Moreover, Toro
`merely identifies a problem that Henriksson sought to solve. However, "knowledge of a problem and motivation
`to solve it are entirely different from motivation to combine particular references." Innogenetics, N.V. v. Abbott
`Labs., 512 F.3d 1363, 1373 (Fed. Cir. 2008).” Metalcraft of Mayville, Inc. v Toro, 848 F.3d 1358, 1367 (Fed. Cir.

`
`Petitioner’s expert’s approach is legally impermissible (Pet. at 23-25):
`
`“As the ALJ recognized, prior art references before the tribunal must be read as a whole and
`consideration must be given where the references diverge and teach away from the claimed
`invention. W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc. v. Garlock, 721 F.2d 1540, 1550, 220 U.S.P.Q. (BNA) 303, 311
`(Fed. Cir. 1983), cert. denied, 469 U.S. 851, 83 L. Ed. 2d 107, 105 S. Ct. 172 (1984). Moreover,
`appellants cannot pick and choose among individual parts of assorted prior art references "as a
`mosaic to recreate a facsimile of the claimed invention." 721 F.2d at 1552, 220 U.S.P.Q. (BNA) at
`312. In this case, the ALJ found that Akzo's expert witnesses could not show how the prior art
`patents could be brought together to render the Blades '756 invention obvious without
`reconstructing the teachings of those patents assisted by hindsight.” Akzo N.V. v. United States ITC,
`808 F.2d 1471, 1481, (Fed. Cir. 1986).
