Appeal No. 2002-1427
Application No. 08/667,459
The Examiner supports a conclusion of obviousness by further
stating that the already stored coefficients are matched with the
coefficients of the camera for processing color images without
constantly obtaining red, green and blue values (answer, page 5).
Appellant argues that Parulski computes a modified value for
each red, green and blue signals based on the values measured by
the same camera and not on primary values from any other device
(brief, page 6). Additionally, Appellant asserts that although a
plurality of cameras is adjusted in Griesshaber, operating mode
values are generated based on a comparison of each camera’s
generated image and that of an electronic test pattern generator,
not based on comparing with the signal levels of a reference
camera (brief, pages 7 and 8). Appellant further points out that
“in other words, none of Griesshaber’s cameras serves as a
reference, but rather, the electronically generated test pattern
serves as the reference” (brief, page 8).
In response, the Examiner argues that the single camera in
Parulski is the reference camera for obtaining color matching
values which are obtained prior to operation of the camera
(answer, page 7). Furthermore, the Examiner makes the assumption
that the single camera referred to in Parulski for detecting the
