Appeal No. 2004-1134
Application No. 09/928,204
indicates that Suzuki’s gain adjustment provides brightness
compensation.
The appellant argues that Suzuki’s signal processor receives
each signal independently, whereas the appellant’s color signals
are combined and then sent to an amplifier (brief, pages 5-6).
The appellant’s claim 1, however, does not require combining the
signals before they are sent to the amplifier to which Suzuki’s
signal processor corresponds.
For the above reasons we find that the camera claimed in the
appellant’s claim 1 is anticipated by Suzuki. Accordingly, we
affirm the rejection of that claim and claim 2 that stands or
falls therewith (brief, page 4).
Claim 3
Claim 3 requires “an amplifier (35) for the white
compensation and the brightness compensation of the red value
signal (R) and the blue value signal (B), and an amplifier (36)
for the brightness compensation of the green value signal (G).”
