Claim(s) 1-5, 9-10, 17, 20 is/are further rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as obvious over Ghosh et al, view of Guy et al. Claim(s) 8 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as obvious over Ghosh et al (US 2023/007746, Al), and further in view of Kelly.
Applicant respectfully disagrees with the rejections and reasoning in the Office Action. Applicant submits that Yao, Iwasaki, Kelly, Ghosh, Guy fail to disclose features of amended claim 1 reciting, in part: "obtaining, based on the intent, at least one source from among a plurality of personal and public resources of images and score information corresponding to images from the at least one source;" "determining at least one image from the at least one source based on the score
information;" Independent claims 17 and 20 recite subject matter analogous to that of claim 1 in a different format. Accordingly, for at least the reasons set forth above with respect to claim 1, the cited references likewise fail to teach or suggest the limitations of claims 17 and 20. Reconsideration is respectfully requested. Applicant submits that dependent claims are patentable at least for the same reasons discussed above with respect to independent amended claims 1, 17, and 20. Accordingly, Applicant respectfully requests reconsideration and withdrawal of the rejections of dependent claims. Reconsideration is respectfully requested”; have been considered, however, these newly added claimed amendments and remarks are moot in light of the new ground of rejections.

It would have been obvious for one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to combine the teachings of Ghosh in view of Heling, and further in view of Fashimpaur to include wherein further comprising publicly displaying an image from the scrollable list, in response to an input being received form a user of the computing device, as discussed above, as Ghosh in view of Heling, and further in view of Fashimpaur are in the same of endeavor of displaying via at least a head mounted display translated realtime text to caption and sign language data between at least two communicating users, Fashimpaur further complements the smart glasses realtime translating text to caption/sign language data of Ghosh in view of Heling with a supplemented scrollable list display proximate to a side of the display of the head mounted display which when added or supplemented to the smart glasses of Ghosh in view of Heling further allow the system to scroll display contents with further convenience either vertically or horizontally through at least gesture means as said scrollable list display configuration screen may be in a case allow the screen to as understood in the art be visually publicly displayable or the like according to known means and/or design choices to yield predictable results since known work in one field of endeavor may prompt variations of it for use in either the same field or a different one based on design incentives or other market forces if the variations are predictable to one of ordinary skill in the art as said combination is thus the adaptation of an old idea or invention using newer technology that is either commonly available and understood in the art thereby a variation on already known art (See MPEP 2143, KSR Exemplary Rationale F).
Regarding claim 16 (according to claim 11), Ghosh in view of Heling are silent regarding wherein: the scrollable list is displayed on the computing device and not visible to another computing device in communication with the computing device; and the scrollable list is displayed on the another computing device, in response to an input being received from a user of the computing device.
Fashimpaur further teaches at least in the disclosure and Fig. 5 where the smart glasses and/or the head mount device further comprising the displayed screen displaying the scrollable list screen which may according to a predetermined understood design not visible to another computing device in communication with the computing device and said scrollable list may be obviously displayed on the another computing device, in response to an input being received from a user of the computing device. It would have been obvious for one of ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to combine the teachings of Ghosh in view of Heling, and further in view of Fashimpaur to include wherein scrollable list is displayed on the computing device and not visible to another computing device in communication with the computing device; and the scrollable list is displayed on the another computing device, in response to an input being received from a user of the computing device, as discussed above, as Ghosh in view of Heling, and further in view of Fashimpaur are in the same of endeavor of displaying via at least a head mounted display translated realtime text to caption and sign language data between at least two communicating users, Fashimpaur further complements the smart glasses realtime translating text to caption/sign language data of Ghosh in view of Heling with a supplemented scrollable list display proximate to a side of the display of the head mounted display which when added or supplemented to the smart glasses of Ghosh in view of Heling further allow the system to scroll display contents with further convenience either vertically or horizontally through at least gesture means as said scrollable list display configuration screen may be in a case allow the screen to as understood in the art be visually publicly displayable or the like according to known means and/or design choices to yield predictable results since known work in one field of endeavor may prompt variations of it for use in either the same field or a different one based on design incentives or other market forces if the variations are predictable to one of ordinary skill in the art as said combination is thus the adaptation of an old idea or invention using newer technology that is either commonly available and understood in the art thereby a variation on already known art (See MPEP 2143, KSR Exemplary Rationale F).
