          Appeal No. 96-3087                                                          
          Application 08/059,060                                                      


          signal, item 40, of Carlucci is used for device calibration.                
          It is completely unrelated to an appearance-based colorimetric              
          value having a specified reference viewing environment [brief,              
          page 9].  The appellants further argue that Carlucci does not               
          teach the modification of the colorimetric values of these                  
          test colors in accordance with the input image environment,                 
          the encoding, and the output viewing environment [brief, page               
          10].                                                                        
               Similarly, the appellants argue that Carlucci does not                 
          show a correction to the image based on the characteristics of              
          flare, surround type and adaptive white point chromaticities                
          in accordance with the difference between the input viewing                 
          environment and the reference viewing environment [brief,                   
          pages 10 through 12].                                                       





               The examiner responds that the scanner and the film in                 
          Carlucci form parts of the input viewing environment since                  
          they are input components used for viewing the input and form               
          part of the input ... system [answer, page 9]; that Carlucci's              
                                          6
