Claim(s) 16, 27 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Blair (US 20100128964 A1) (herein after Blair) [cited in the IDS filed by the applicant] in view of FRANK et al. (DE 102011005518 A1) (herein after FRANK).
As to claim(s) 1, Blair discloses a sensor for checking documents of value comprising:
at least one radiation source [303…¶0032], which is adapted to apply electromagnetic radiation to a document of value [302] [fig.3, ¶0034], and
a detector [301] having a multiplicity of detector elements arranged at different locations [¶0032], which is adapted to record electromagnetic radiation emerging from the document of value in at least two different spectral ranges with position resolution, while generating for each of the spectral ranges a detector signal corresponding to the intensity of the recorded electromagnetic radiation in the respective spectral range [This sequenced illumination produces an interleaved image in which each line scanned by the camera 301 is recorded under the illumination of a different wavelength of light in a pre-determined sequence (e.g., red, green, blue, UV, red, green, blue, UV, etc) until the entire note 302 is scanned. FIG. 3 shows the interleaved pattern 312 superimposed on the note 302 to help illustrate this concept. In the present example, the interleaved image can be separated into red 310, green 320, blue 330, and ultraviolet (UV) 340 reflective images…¶0033][¶0034],
an evaluation instrument [illumination to be changed on a note-by-note basis as notes are fed through the processing machine…¶0060],
wherein the evaluation instrument is adapted to check a first feature [710] provided on or in the document of value with the aid of the detector signals generated for at least one first spectral range [fig.7: In the first region 710 of the note 700, there is a serial number 701 which is most effectively captured under IR reflectance. For this region of the note, the illumination mode might simply use reflective IR from a single light stick for all of the scan lines that cover the position of the serial number…¶0056],
to check a second feature [720] provided on or in the document of value, while taking into account the detector signals generated for at least one second spectral range [In the middle region 720 of the note is an OVI symbol 702. For this region of the note the illumination mode would comprise multi-azimuth reflectance, interleaving lines illuminated from different angles of incidence…¶0057].
[Note: while each unit configured to perform as claimed may be recited either structurally or functionally, claims directed to an apparatus must be distinguished from the prior art in terms of structure rather than function, because apparatus claims cover what a device is, not what a device does].
Blair discloses all the features of the claimed invention except the limitation such as: “a color channel-specific attenuation in the first spectral range relative to the second spectral range, a color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation shined onto the document of value, or a color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation to be recorded by the detector, or a color channel-specific attenuation of the detector signals of the detector, is set up in the sensor”.
However, FRANK from the same field of endeavor discloses a color channel-specific attenuation in a first spectral range [3-1] relative to a second spectral range [3-2] [a security document 1 represented, which is a security element 2 which shows a 3D color effect. The security element includes graphical information 3 , which is a first piece of information 3-1 , a second piece of information 3-2 as well as another piece of information 3-5 includes. The different information shares 3-1 . 3-2 . 3-5 the graphic information 3 are applied with different colorants…page 9], a color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation [23] shined onto the document of value [The different information shares 3-1 . 3-2 . 3-5 are prepared with colorants which have different reflectance or transmission spectra at a
broadband excitation of the electromagnetic radiation, for example with white light, which has a continuous spectrum in the range of about 400 nm about 800 nm. The individual pieces of information each have a homogeneous uniform color. The colorants are chosen so that the reflectance or transmission spectra of the individual information components 3-1 . 3-2 . 3-5 are each dominated by a distribution spectrum of a spectral color…page 9][ the verification device comprises an imaging detection device 24 which captures a
spatial and spectral resolution of an image of the security element on the security document, while this example, with electromagnetic radiation of the excitation source 23 is illuminated…page 10].
Therefore, it would have been obvious to a person having ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the invention was made to modify the device/method/system of Blair such that the color channel-specific attenuation in the first spectral range relative to the second spectral range, the color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation shined onto the document of value; as taught by FRANK, for the advantages such as: ensures simple and easy verification of the documents that is detected by different detectors.
As to claim(s) 27, Blair discloses a method for checking documents of value wherein:
at least one radiation source [303…¶0032], which is adapted to apply electromagnetic radiation to a document of value [302] [fig.3, ¶0034], and
a detector [301] having a multiplicity of detector elements arranged at different locations [¶0032], which is adapted to record electromagnetic radiation emerging from the document of value in at least two different spectral ranges [red, green, blue, etc] with position resolution, while generating for each of the spectral ranges a detector signal corresponding to the intensity of the recorded electromagnetic radiation in the respective spectral range [This sequenced illumination produces an interleaved image in which each line scanned by the camera 301 is recorded under the illumination of a different wavelength of light in a pre-determined sequence (e.g., red, green, blue, UV, red, green, blue, UV, etc) until the entire note 302 is scanned. FIG. 3 shows the interleaved pattern 312 superimposed on the note 302 to help illustrate this concept. In the present example, the interleaved image can be separated into red 310, green 320, blue 330, and ultraviolet (UV) 340 reflective images…¶0033][¶0034],
wherein a first feature [710] provided on or in the document of value with the aid of the detector signals generated for at least one first spectral range [fig.7: In the first region 710 of the note 700, there is a serial number 701 which is most effectively captured under IR reflectance. For this region of the note, the illumination mode might simply use reflective IR from a single light stick for all of the scan lines that cover the position of the serial number…¶0056],
to check a second feature [720] provided on or in the document of value, while taking into account the detector signals generated for at least one second spectral range [In the middle region 720 of the note is an OVI symbol 702. For this region of the note the illumination mode would comprise multi-azimuth reflectance, interleaving lines illuminated from different angles of incidence…¶0057].
[Note: while each unit configured to perform as claimed may be recited either structurally or functionally, claims directed to an apparatus must be distinguished from the prior art in terms of structure rather than function, because apparatus claims cover what a device is, not what a device does].
Blair discloses all the features of the claimed invention except the limitation such as: “a color channel-specific attenuation in the first spectral range relative to the second spectral range, a color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation shined onto the document of value, or a color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation to be recorded by the detector, or a color channel-specific attenuation of the detector signals of the detector, is set up in the sensor”.
However, FRANK from the same field of endeavor discloses a color channel-specific attenuation in a first spectral range [3-1] relative to a second spectral range [3-2] [a security document 1 represented, which is a security element 2 which shows a 3D color effect. The security element includes graphical information 3 , which is a first piece of information 3-1 , a second piece of information 3-2 as well as another piece of information 3-5 includes. The different information shares 3-1 . 3-2 . 3-5 the graphic information 3 are applied with different colorants…page 9], a color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation [23] shined onto the document of value [The different information shares 3-1 . 3-2 . 3-5 are prepared with colorants which have different reflectance or transmission spectra at a
broadband excitation of the electromagnetic radiation, for example with white light, which has a continuous spectrum in the range of about 400 nm about 800 nm. The individual pieces of information each have a homogeneous uniform color. The colorants are chosen so that the reflectance or transmission spectra of the individual information components 3-1 . 3-2 . 3-5 are each dominated by a distribution spectrum of a spectral color…page 9][ the verification device comprises an imaging detection device 24 which captures a
spatial and spectral resolution of an image of the security element on the security document, while this example, with electromagnetic radiation of the excitation source 23 is illuminated…page 10].
Therefore, it would have been obvious to a person having ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the invention was made to modify the device/method/system of Blair such that the color channel-specific attenuation in the first spectral range relative to the second spectral range, the color channel-specific attenuation of the electromagnetic radiation shined onto the document of value; as taught by FRANK, for the advantages such as: ensures simple and easy verification of the documents that is detected by different detectors.

Therefore, it would have been obvious to a person having ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the invention was made to modify the device/method/system of Blair such that the sensor has at least one color channel-specific filter for the color channel-specific attenuation, which is arranged between the detector and the document of value and/or between the radiation source and the document of value, and which is adapted to attenuate the electromagnetic radiation that emerges from the document of value or is applied to the document of value; wherein the filter is adapted to attenuate the electromagnetic radiation in the at least one first spectral range relative to the at least one second spectral range by the same amount for substantially all detector elements; wherein the at least one filter is adapted to attenuate the electromagnetic radiation that emerges from the document of value or is applied to the document of value so that the intensity of the electromagnetic radiation recorded by the detector in the at least one first or second spectral range is respectively greater than the lower intensity threshold of the detector and less than an upper intensity threshold of the detector; wherein the at least one radiation source is adapted to apply the electromagnetic radiation to the document of value in such the way that the intensity of the electromagnetic radiation recorded by the detector in the at least one first or second spectral range is respectively greater than the lower intensity threshold of the detector and less than an upper intensity threshold of the detector; as taught by FRANK, for the advantages such as: ensures simple and easy verification of the documents that is detected by different detectors.
Still the limitation such as: “which is adapted to attenuate the electromagnetic radiation that emerges from the document of value or is applied to the document of value in the at least one first spectral range relative to the at least one second spectral range by at least a factor of 5.”.
However, FRIESER from the same field of endeavor discloses a sensor which is adapted to attenuate the electromagnetic radiation that emerges from the document of value or is applied to the document of value [The sensor equipment 21 preferably comprises at least one sensor 25 which is set up to detect radiation from different spectral ranges or wavelength ranges… The sensor equipment 21 is observed with the light reflected from the front side and the back side, and when observed with the transmitted light, it is preferable to be able to detect the transmission and / or reflection spectra, as shown for example in FIG. 1C…page 21] in the at least one first spectral range relative to the at least one second spectral range by at least a factor of 5 [Through the detection of transmission and / or reflection characteristics in three or more different spectral ranges, the check for authenticity can be improved by ensuring that one or more characteristics unique to the security element are reliably detected…page 7][ The first, second, third and / or fourth spectral ranges are: in particular from the IR range (IR, infrared, infrared light) of electromagnetic radiation, from the wavelength range from 850 nm to 950 nm…page 8].
Therefore, it would have been obvious to a person having ordinary skill in the art before the effective filing date of the invention was made to modify the device/method/system of Blair when modified by FRANK such that the sensor which is adapted to attenuate the electromagnetic radiation that emerges from the document of value or is applied to the document of value in the at least one first spectral range relative to the at least one second spectral range by at least the factor of 5; as taught by FRIESER, for the advantages such as: separate recognition of security features by the

Claim(s) 18-20, 24-26 and 29-30 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over Blair in view of FRANK et al. and further in view of KUMMAILIL et al. (US 20140253705 A1) (herein after KUMMAILIL).
