(CCPA 1966).
We note that Appellant's independent claim 19 also
recites a vibration vector detecting means for detecting a
vibration vector and an image movement vector detecting means
for detecting an image movement vector representing movement
of an object within an image represented by the image signal
based upon both the image signal and the vibration vector. We
further note that Appellant's only remaining independent
claim, claim 23, recites a video camera for tracking a moving
object image comprising a vibration vector detecting means for
detecting a vibration vector and an image movement vector
detecting means for detecting an image movement vector
representing the movement of a moving object within an image
represented by the image signal based on both the image signal
and the vibration vector. We note that the Examiner relies on
Kondo for the teaching of an image movement vector detecting
means for detecting an image movement vector based on both the
