TCL’S INVALIDITY CONTENTIONS FOR U.S. 8,078,767
`Exhibit C7: U.S. Patent No. 7,877,696 (“Telek”)
`
`
`As demonstrated in the claim charts below, the asserted claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,078,767 (“the ’767 patent”) are invalid (a) under
`one or more sections of 35 U.S.C. § 102 as anticipated by Telek and (b) under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as obvious over Telek standing
`alone and as set forth herein, and/or combined with the knowledge of a person of ordinary skill in the art, Applicant’s Admitted Prior
`Art (“AAPA”), and/or the additional prior art references discussed in Exhibits C1-C14, and O3, the contents of which are hereby
`incorporated by reference into this chart. One of ordinary skill in the art, as of the alleged priority date of the ’767 patent, would have
`known to combine the prior art elements disclosed by the foregoing references using known methods, and to use these elements
`according to their established functions in order to achieve a known and predictable result.
`
`Except where specifically noted otherwise, this chart may apply the apparent interpretations of claim language as used by Plaintiff in
`its infringement contentions. Such use, however, does not imply that Defendants adopt or agree with Plaintiff’s interpretations in any
`way. Additionally, by providing contentions for claim preamble elements, Defendants do not take a position on whether the preamble
`is a claim limitation.

`a connection unit configured
`to connect an external device

`with the external device; and
`
`To the extent 35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶6 applies, Telek also discloses the corresponding structure(s) and
`function(s) claimed or their equivalents, as shown above, or renders them obvious in view of the
`knowledge of one skilled in the art.
`Telek discloses a connection unit configured to connect an external device to be able to communicate
`with the external device.
`For example, Telek discloses:
`4:31-5:6: (“A digital media frame (DMF) has a display unit and control system that allows a user to
`display at least one digital image with minimal user intervention. The DMF is capable of receiving
`digital images from various external input devices, such as, digital cameras, video cameras,
`computers, telephone lines, television cables, and Internet servers or other types of networks and
`in certain embodiments the DMF optionally can be made to capture digital images….
`FIG. 1 illustrates an embodiment of a connection between external devices 100 and a DMF 102. In
`FIG. 1, DMF 102 is illustrated as being connected to a camera 110, a personal computer (“PC”) 112, a
`cable connector 114, and an Internet connector 116.”
`DMF 102 further contains an interface unit 104 and a user input component 105. The user input
`component 105 also contains user-input buttons 106, which are the input devices. The interface unit
`104 includes at least one I/O (“input and output”) port capable of connecting to the camera 110,
`PC 112, the cable connectors 114, and the Internet connector 116 using connecting cables 120,
`122, 124, and 126, respectively. The interface unit 104 is further capable of receiving and processing
`both digital and analog image data. It will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that one or
`more of these external devices 100 can be connected to a particular DMF 102. It will also be apparent
`that the equivalent conventional input devices 100 can be similarly connected.
`A camera 110 can be connected to interface unit 104. Camera 110 can be a digital still camera or a
`digital video camera that provides captured images in digital form. Camera 110 can also be an analog
`video camera that provides analog image signals that can be converted by interface unit 104 or other
`portions of DMF 102 into a digital image. In one embodiment, the camera 110 can directly transfer
`the captured image to the DMF using conventional transmission media, such as, for example,
`wireless, cable, or removable media.)

`Telek discloses a control unit that acquires class information indicating a class of the external device
`from the external device via said connection unit, controls said display unit to continue the display
`based on the data received from the external device at the time of disconnection of the communication
`connection with the external device if the class of the external device indicated by the class
`information is a predetermined class, and controls said display unit to end the display based on the
`data received from the external device at the time of disconnection of the communication connection
`with the external device if the class of the external device indicated by the class information is not the
`predetermined class.
`See, e.g. element 1.c.
`In addition, Telek discloses:
`6:47-64 (“Among other things, processing circuit 206 is adapted to analyze data received from
`interface circuit 204 to determine whether the data comprises instructions, a digital image or
`other data and to determine appropriate steps for processing such data. Processing circuit 206

`A digital image can be associated with metadata. Such metadata generally comprises any form
`of data that is associated with the digital image but that is not necessarily presented as a part of
`the visually perceptible output. For example, such metadata can include but is not necessarily
`limited to data reflecting a time and/or date upon which the visual content used to form the digital
`image was captured or generated, a location of such capture or generation, conditions of capture or
`generation, the identification of a capture or generation device, an identification of a photographer,

`for presenting the visual content depicted in the visual content data record, audio data or text data for
`presentation with the visual content data record, and/or keywords and or other indexing information.”)
`14:54-15:14 (“After attaching the auxiliary information, the process proceeds from block 618 to block
`616, where the image data together with the attached auxiliary information are stored in a
`memory buffer. The memory buffer is a small and fast memory device that provides fast
`memory access for displaying images. In one embodiment, the memory buffer is non-volatile
`memory device to prevent memory loss upon power disconnection. In another embodiment, the
`memory buffer is regular random access memory having a backup portable power supply to prevent
`memory loss. After block 616, the process moves to block 620, where the output from the memory
`buffer can be selected for displaying.
`At block 620, the process further receives signals from block 624 and block 622. The block 624
`contains input control signals from the user, while the block 622 contains the image data for the
`last displayed images. The process at block 624 receives a user input, which may indicate to pause
`the current image. In another embodiment, the user input is used as one of many combinational logic
`inputs for selecting the next image.
`Upon selecting the image data, the process proceeds from block 620 to block 630, where the
`image is displayed. When the current image is displayed, the process proceeds from block 630 to
`block 622, where the current image is stored. In one embodiment, block 622 stores the image
`data only for one image, which is the last displayed image. In another embodiment, block 622
`stores the image data for a set of recently displayed images.”)

`used to transmit the code from the camera and translating the code to native language if it is needed.
`At block 1008, the process examines whether the data comes from a PC. If block 1008 is false, the

`
`Telek discloses a display apparatus characterized in that said control unit controls to end the display
`after a predetermined first period elapses.
`For example, Telek discloses:
`11:5-16 (“Processing circuit 206 is configured to determine a manner for presenting images, a
`sequence of sequence of images, video streams and other visual content on display unit 350. This can
`involve, for example, determining time intervals for presenting the visual content, time
`transition types between images. The interval transition time indicates the time interval between
`the current image and the next image to be displayed. The image transition is a mechanism of
`retiring the presentation of a current image while phasing in the next image. In one embodiment,
`the image transition moves current and next images in one direction as the current image move out
`while the next image moves.”)
