U.S. PatentNo. 8,311,522(“the ’522 Patent”) ’522 Patent Claim The system comprising: a communication device comprising a sensor set which detects sensor data comprising

a first detected sensor value comprising an amount of light of the environment of the communication device from an optical sensor and

a second detected sensor value comprising a sound level of the environment of the communication

(Plaintiff construction) “provide/provides/ providing differing levels of information”: plain and ordinary meaning ( data to be sent, or not to be sent.)

“first detected sensor value”: plain and ordinary meaning

“second detected sensor value”: plain and ordinary meaning

(Defendant construction for) “provide/provides/ providing differing levels of information” : (to mean) “send/ sends/sending information in varying levels of granularity” (construe to be limited to sending only)

“first detected sensor value”: “one of multiple possible light measurements between a high and low value used to develop a social signature.”

“second detected sensor value”: “one of multiple possible acoustic measurements between a high and low value.

(Court ruled “plain and ordinary meaning”)

Devicefrom an acoustic sensor, and transmits the sensor data (;)

(TO) considered condition not necessarily on a server;

a memory which stores social templates, each social template corresponding to a unique social signature comprising a first sensor value range and a second sensor value range other than the first sensor value range and each social template being selectable to provide, for each level of the predetermined social hierarchy, a corresponding differing amount of information to each member of the predetermined social hierarchy(;)

(In above case, data has been acted upon form a device to a memory)

(TO) considered condition;

and a server comprising a processor which

(For the following I’ve ordered the constructions, as they were a mixed bag, and added the courts construction)

“K. Agreed Upon Constructions Finally, the construction of the following terms has been agreed upon by the parties. The Court will therefore adopt the parties’ constructions. Claim Term Agreed Upon Construction “being selectable to provide” “Capable of being selected to provide” “environment of the communication device” “surroundings of the communication device within the detectable area of the communication device” “social template” “data structure associated with a social hierarchy and one or more social signatures” “unique social signature” “social signature associated with a specific social template at the time of processing” “optical sensor” Plain and ordinary meaning “accurate” “capable of desired processing”

P “social template”: “parameters and/or information for analysis of social signatures”

D “social template”: “data structure storing a social signature and a social hierarchy”

C note above

P “unique social signature”: “social signature associated with a specific social template at the time of processing”

D “unique social signature”: “combination of sensor data indicative of a type of activity and that is unique”

C note above

P “sensor value range”: plain and ordinary meaning

D “sensor value range”: “range of measurements between two values”

C “sensor value range”: “range of measurements between two values”

P “social hierarchy”: “an arrangement of persons, things, information and/or low value used to develop a social signature.”

D “social hierarchy”: “ordered ranking of social groups defined within each social template”

C “an arrangement of persons and/or operations in a series of ordered levels.”

Receives the sensor data from the communication device,

creates a detected social signature from the received sensor data,

determines which of the social signatures of the stored social templates has a greatest correspondence with the created social signature through comparison of the first and second detected sensor values and the first and second sensor value ranges of each stored social template,

retrieves from the memory the determined one social template having the greatest correspondence and having the detected amount of light within the first sensor value operations in a series of levels”

(Again, I’ve re-ordered the claim terms and added the courts consideration)

P “information”: plain and ordinary meaning

D“information”: “a report about a single event that results from comparison of sensor data with social templates”

C Court will adopt e.Digital’s proposal that “information” be given its plain and ordinary meaning.

P“social signature”: “raw or processed data and/or other information based on sensors”

D“social signature”: “combination of sensor data indicative of a type of activity”

C “a combination of processed sensor data and/or other information based on sensors.”

range and the detected sound level within the second sensor value range,

and provides to at least one member of the predetermined social hierarchy only as much information as allowed based on the retrieved social template.

(In above issues, data has been acted upon form a device to a server environment)

Claim 3 The system of claim 1, wherein: the levels of the social hierarchy of the retrieved social template include:

a first social hierarchy level which provides one level of information as selected in the retrieved social-,

a second social hierarchy level which provides another level of information as selected in the retrieved social template,

and a third social hierarchy level which provides a further level of information as selected in the retrieved social template(;)

(TO) considered condition;

and the processor detects to which of the first social hierarchy level, the second social hierarchy level, and the third social hierarchy level each member belongs, and provides only as much information as allowed by the detected.

’522 Patent Claim Agreed Proposed Construction e.Digital’s Proposed Construction Defendants’ Proposed Construction Court’s Construction social hierarchy level.

Claim 6 The system of claim 1, wherein the server further comprises a transceiver which receives the sensor data sent from the communication device.

Claim 17 A method of automatically providing differing levels of information according to a predetermined social hierarchy, the method comprising: constructing a social signature using sensor data sensed by a sensor set in a communication device, the sensor data comprising

a first-detected sensor value comprising optical information from an optical sensor of the communication device which detects an amount of light of an environment of the communication device and

a second detected sensor value comprising acoustic information from an acoustic sensor of the communication device which detects a sound level of the environment of the communication device(;)

(TO) considered condition;

determining which one of a plurality of social templates has a social signature with a greatest correspondence with the constructed social signature through comparison of the first and second detected sensor values and first and second sensor value ranges of each social template,

each social template corresponding to a unique social signature comprising corresponding first and second sensor value ranges and each social template being selectable to provide,

for each level of the predetermined social hierarchy,

a corresponding differing amount of information to each member of the predetermined social hierarchy(;)

(TO) considered condition;

retrieving from a memory the determined one social template having the greatest correspondence and having the detected amount of light within the first sensor value range, and the detected sound level within the second sensor value range(;)

(TO) considered condition;

and providing to at least one member of the predetermined social hierarchy only as much information as allowed based on the retrieved social template.

Not sure if others will see what I’m driving at either…lol But, I have to have the side by side of what happened at the conclusion of claims construction…everything in red I’ve introduced.

FWIW
