number of pixels in the solid-state detector. As we have noted in our discussion of claim
1, the “desired image size” simply refers to the pixel density and pixel size that is
required by the output device. As we have also discussed with regard to claim 1, the
pixel size and pixel density of the display in Sayed are not disclosed as undergoing
change. We further find that, regardless of the number of pixels in the CCD device, the
number of pixels in the display device does not change, and are thus “substantially
constant.” The number of pixels in the display are, in fact, constant, unless and until the
resolution of the display is changed (e.g., from 800x600 pixels to 1024x768 pixels).
We sustain the rejection of claims 19 through 22.
CONCLUSION
The rejection of claims 1, 8, and 15-18 under 35 U.S.C. § 102 is affirmed. The
rejection of claims 2, 3, 5-7, 9, 10, 12-14, and 19-22 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is affirmed.
