`Case No. 2:20-cv-00241-JRG-RSP
`
`ORDER
`
`Before the Court is LPR 4-3 Joint Claim Construction Chart and Prehearing Statement
`
`(“Joint Claim Construction”), filed by Plaintiff Neodron Ltd. and Defendants Panasonic
`
`Corporation and Panasonic Corporation of North America (collectively the “Parties”). Dkt. No.
`
`47. The Parties have agreed to constructions below:
`
`
` Patent Claim Term/Phrase/Clause
`1. “the substrate, with drive or sense electrodes of
`a touch sensor disposed on a first surface and a
`second surface of the substrate, the first surface
`being opposite the second surface, the drive or
`sense electrodes being made of a conductive
`mesh conductive material comprising metal”
`(’574 Patent, Claims 1, 8)
`
`2. “conductive mesh [of] conductive material”
`(’574 Patent, Claims 1, 8, 15)
`
`Agreed Construction
`Plain and ordinary meaning, which is “the
`substrate, having a first surface and a second
`surface opposite the first surface, with drive
`electrodes of a touch sensor disposed on one of
`the first or second surfaces and sense electrodes
`of the touch sensor disposed on the other surface
`opposite the drive electrodes, the drive or sense
`electrodes being made of a conductive mesh
`conductive material comprising metal.”
`“conductive mesh of conductive material
`excluding transparent conductive materials such
`as indium tin oxide (ITO)”

`

`Case 2:20-cv-00241-JRG-RSP Document 48 Filed 03/10/21 Page 2 of 2 PageID #: 331
`
`3. “one or more of the following being true”
`(’960 Patent, Claims 1, 9, 17)
`
`4. “conductive mesh of conductive material”
`(’960 Patent, Claims 1, 9, 17)
`
`5. “interconnecting mesh segments”
`(’960 Patent, Claims 1, 9, 17)
`
`6. “pitch”
`(’784 Patent, Claims 1-3)
`
`7. “wherein the plurality of drive electrodes are
`substantially area filling within the sensing region
`relative to the plurality of sense electrodes”
`(’784 Patent, Claims 1-3)
`8. “together, the plurality of sense electrodes and
`the plurality of isolated conductive elements are
`substantially area filling within the sensing region
`relative to the plurality of sense electrodes”
`(’784 Patent, Claims 1-3)
`
`
`For claim 1: either the claim elements at lines 37-
`45 or the claim elements at lines 46-60 must be
`true.
`For claim 9: either the claim elements at lines 26-
`35 or the claim elements at lines 36-50 must be
`true.
`For claim 17: either the claim elements at lines
`30-37 or the claim elements at lines 38-52 must
`be true.
`“conductive mesh of conductive material
`excluding transparent conductive materials such
`as indium tin oxide (ITO)”
`“interconnecting lines of conductive electrode
`material forming a mesh pattern, instead of a
`continuous layer of conductive electrode
`material”
`Plain and ordinary meaning, which is “distance
`from the center of one electrode to the center of
`an adjacent electrode”
`Plain and ordinary meaning, which is “where the
`drive electrodes are substantially area filling and
`where the drive electrodes are more area filling
`than the sense electrodes.”
`Plain and ordinary meaning, which is “where the
`sense electrodes and isolated conductive elements
`are substantially area filling and where the sense
`electrodes and isolated conductive elements are
`more area filling than the sense electrodes.”
`
`Based on the Parties’ agreement, the Court hereby ADOPTS the agreed constructions.
`
`The Parties have represented there are no claim construction disputes and request the claim
`
`construction hearing be cancelled. It is therefore ORDERED, that the claim construction hearing
`
`is CANCELLED.
