As noted by e.Digital, the ’522 patent describes an embodiment wherein the only information provided concerns “the desired contact state.” See ECF No. 50-2(’522 patent) at 4:13-14. A communication that informs that the contacted individual is “busy” fits comfortably within the understanding of the word “information.” Such a communication does not, however, report anything about a “single event.” Although it does appear that the “information” described in the patents results from a comparison of the sensor data with the social templates, the Court agrees with e.Digital that “the social template comparison is already a component of the claims and therefore need not be incorporated into the Court’s construction.” ECF No. 53 at 15. Because the patent does not evince the patentee’s intent to deviate from the term’s commonly-understood meaning, the Court will adopt e.Digital’s proposal that “information” be given its plain and ordinary meaning.
