          Appeal No. 2003-1227                                                        
          Application No. 09/049,161                                                  

          and Anderson appears to disclose a display of the present                   
          position, e.g., column 14, lines 55-58, indicates a user viewing            
          a VR-based model, we find no indication of displaying a desired             
          position, orientation and attitude, as claimed.  The examiner               
          points to column 19, lines 1-21, of Anderson for such a teaching            
          (Paper No. 16, page 3) but we find no such disclosure or                    
          suggestion of a display thereat.                                            
               Accordingly, since an important claim limitation is missing            
          from Anderson, Anderson cannot anticipate the instant claims and            
          we will not sustain the rejection of claims 11-20 under 35 U.S.C.           
          § 102(e).                                                                   














                                         -7–
