          Appeal No. 1999-2698                                                        
          Application 08/560,108                                                      


          prestored in a computer spatial model of the object space . .               
          . ."  We agree with Appellant that this is not taught or                    
          suggested by Bajura, and, as specifically discussed above,                  
          find that it is not disclosed even by those sections of Bajura              
          cited by the Examiner.                                                      
               We find that Bajura and Deering are directed to disparate              
          teachings which address different problems and find no reason               
          or suggestion in either prior art reference to enable their                 
          combination in this obviousness analysis.  Furthermore, there               
          is no objective teaching in either Bajura or Deering that                   
          would lead one of ordinary skill in this art to combine the                 
          references as proposed by the Examiner.                                     
               Therefore, we will not sustain the rejection of claims 1               
          and 4-7, 9, 13, and 19-20 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                    
          unpatentable over Bajura and Deering.                                       




               In addition, we will not sustain the following                         
          rejections:                                                                 
                    Claims 2-3, 8 and 21 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as                     
               being unpatentable over Bajura in view of Deering                      
                                          22
