Appeal No. 1997-1197
Application 08/130,255
This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from
the final rejection of claims 1-4 and 7-19, and 22-26. Claims
5, 6, 27, and 28 stand objected to (Final Rejection, page 5).
The amendment after final rejection (Paper No. 7) presumably
overcomes the rejection of claims 20 and 21 under 35 U.S.C.
§ 112, second paragraph, so claims 20 and 21 presumably also
stand objected to (Final Rejection, page 5).
We affirm-in-part.
BACKGROUND
The disclosed invention is directed to a method and
apparatus for displaying and selectively rotating an image on
an image display unit. An image is stored in memory in a
certain sequence of bits, e.g., from a least significant bit
(LSB) to a most significant bit (MSB) and from a low address
to a high address as shown in figure 1. The image may be read
out from memory in the same sequence to form a normal image on
the display as shown in figure 1, or may be read out in an
inverse sequence to form an inverted display as shown in
figure 5.
Claim 1 is reproduced below.
1. Apparatus for displaying a video image on at
least one video display, said video image stored as pixel
