          Appeal No. 2002-1732                                                        
          Application No. 09/338,238                                                  

          at least one measurement but there may also be automatic                    
          determination of other measurements.  While it may very well have           
          been obvious to employ direct human intervention, the examiner              
          has offered no convincing evidence of such obviousness.                     
               Accordingly, we will not sustain the rejection of claims 7             
          and 47 under 35 U.S.C. § 103.                                               
                                     CONCLUSION                                       
               We have sustained the rejections of claims 1-4, 8-16, 22,              
          23, 41-44, 48-55, 58, 59 and 69-73.  We have not sustained the              
          rejection of claims 5-7, 17-21, 24-34, 45-47, 56, 57 and 60-68.
