          Appeal No. 96-0649                                                          
          Application 08/191,234                                                      



               We agree with the basic position set forth by the                      
          examiner in which the examiner clearly shows that Gove is not               
          concerned with the details of camera motion sensing but does                
          indicate clearly that camera motion is a factor to be                       
          determined in scene change determinations as set forth in                   
          Gove’s own title.  The details of camera induced motion                     
          sensing are provided by Miyatake.  The focus of Gove’s                      
          teachings is upon scene change detection systems in which the               
          scene changes within the video images per se.  Appellant’s                  
          additional assertion at the top of page 7 of the brief that                 
          Gove does not show or suggest the use of cumulative values of               
          camera motion for any purpose whatsoever is consistent with                 
          the examiner’s position of the statement in the rejection and               
          analysis in the answer, since the examiner relies upon                      
          Miyatake and not Gove for the teaching value of cumulative                  
          determinations for any factors affecting camera motion.                     
               Finally, appellant asserts at page 7 of the brief:                     
               In regard to the ’034 reference, this reference                        
               simply discloses one example of a method for                           
               determining motion parameters that may be used by                      
               the present invention.  In fact, Appellant discloses                   
               on page 17, line 21 - page 18, line 17 a number of                     
               other similar methods that may be used.  Appellant                     
                                          6
