`square, with
`“no change in shape between the LEDs and the diffuser.”

`
`But before the ITC, Apple argued:
`• Relevant comparison is between light when it reaches material and emerges
`from material

`• Light from LED “changes from a square to a circular shape without passing

`Dr. Mannheimer determined that Apple could not measure oxygen saturation
`by adding LEDs to a “Series 0” pulse sensor with a Fresnel lens

`Apple replaced Fresnel lens with microlens array in Series 6

`Fitbit (Sarantos Assignee) Did Not Release A
`Wrist SpO2 Device Until 2020
`Petition: “[W]rist-worn pulse oximetry sensors, such as that described in
`Sarantos, were well-known in the art.” 1291 Pet., 20.
`
`Duckworth:
`“[B]ased on my research, it
`apparently took Fitbit more than five
`years before it announced (in late
`2020) that some of its devices might
`be able to measure SpO2.”
