CTFR 18/897,134 CTFR 87383 Notice of Pre-AIA or AIA Status 07-03-aia AIA 15-10-aia The present application, filed on or after March 16, 2013, is being examined under the first inventor to file provisions of the AIA. DETAILED ACTION Priority 02-25 Acknowledgment is made of Applicant's claim for foreign priority based on a Patent Applications filed on 3/30/22. It is noted that Applicant has filed a certified copy of the application as required by 35 U.S.C. 119(b). RESPONSE TO ARGUMENTS Applicant’s amendments and remarks filed on 4/9/26 have been fully considered and the rejections withdrawn in light of Applicant’s amendments. However, based upon further consideration a new ground of rejection is entered for Claims 1-3, 6, 8, 10-11, 13, 17-20 in view of SHIMIZU (Pub. No: US 2021-0390712) and in light of Applicant’s newly amendment language. Examiner acknowledges Claim 5 has been canceled. Regarding Applicant’s remarks on Pages 8-10, Applicant’s amendments and remarks filed on 4/9/26 have been fully considered and the rejections withdrawn in light of Applicant’s amendments. However, based upon further consideration a new ground of rejection is entered for Claims 1-3, 6, 8, 10-11, 13, 17-20 in view of SHIMIZU (Pub. No: US 2021-0390712) and in light of Applicant’s newly amendment language (See rejection contained herein). With regards to Claim 1 and Claim 5, Claim 5 subject matter was rolled into Claim 1 without including intervening Claim 4 for the condition for allowance as stated in the previous office action. Accordingly, Claim 1 stands rejected. In addition, the rejection stands under 35 U.SC. section 101 for Claim 20 as the amendment to Claim 20 did not overcome or cure said rejection. Recitation of a processor is not per se inclusion of hardware and it is noted that the published disclosure of the specification contains the language ‘the present disclosed technology is realized by the software configuration… a combination of a hardware configuration and a software configuration may be used” (US Pub. No.: 2025-0024124 [0212-0214]). As evidenced by the specification it appears that said claimed apparatus is capable of reading on software and as such does not fall into any statutory class of invention. Accordingly, rejections remain for independent Claims 1 and 20 as well as any dependent claims. FINAL REJECTION Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 101 07-04-01 AIA 07-04 35 U.S.C. 101 reads as follows: Whoever invents or discovers any new and useful process, machine, manufacture, or composition of matter, or any new and useful improvement thereof, may obtain a patent therefor, subject to the conditions and requirements of this title. Claim 20 is rejected under 35 U.S.C. 101 as not falling within one of the four statutory categories of invention. Regarding the claimed ‘apparatus’ of Claim 20, it is noted that the published disclosure of the specification contains the language ‘the present disclosed technology is realized by the software configuration… a combination of a hardware configuration and a software configuration may be used” (US Pub. No.: 2025-0024124 [0212-0214]). As evidenced by the specification it appears that said claimed apparatus is capable of reading on software and as such does not fall into any statutory class of invention. Computer programs claimed as computer listings per se, i.e., the descriptions or expressions of the programs, are not physical “things.” They are neither computer components nor statutory processes, as they are not “acts” to be performed. Such claimed computer programs do not define any structural and functional interrelationships between the computer program and other claimed elements of a computer which permit the computer program’s functionality to be realized. See Lowry, 32 F.3d at 1583-84, 32 USPQ2d at 1035. Claim Rejections - 35 USC § 103 07-20-aia AIA The following is a quotation of 35 U.S.C. 103 which forms the basis for all obviousness rejections set forth in this Office action: A patent for a claimed invention may not be obtained, notwithstanding that the claimed invention is not identically disclosed as set forth in section 102, if the differences between the claimed invention and the prior art are such that the claimed invention as a whole would have been obvious before the effective filing date of the claimed invention to a person having ordinary skill in the art to which the claimed invention pertains. Patentability shall not be negated by the manner in which the invention was made. 07-23-aia AIA The factual inquiries for establishing a background for determining obviousness under 35 U.S.C. 103 are summarized as follows: 1. Determining the scope and contents of the prior art. 2. Ascertaining the differences between the prior art and the claims at issue. 3. Resolving the level of ordinary skill in the pertinent art. 4. Considering objective evidence present in the application indicating obviousness or non-obviousness. 07-21-aia AIA Claim s 1-3, 6, 8, 13, 20 is/are rejected under 35 U.S.C. 103 as being unpatentable over KIM et al.

The dependent claims further limit the independent claims and are considered allowable on the same basis as the independent claims as well as for the further limitations set forth. As per Claim 14, the following is an Examiner’s statement of reasons for allowance: the closest prior art obtained from an Examiner’s search (KIM, Pub. No: US 2010-0235336; SHIMIZU, Pub. No: US 2021-0390712; SICCONI, Pub.

Such submissions should be clearly labeled “Comments on Statement of Reasons for Allowance.” 12-151-07 AIA 07-97 12-51-07 Claim s 7, 9, 12, 14-16 are allowed . 07-43 Claim 4 is/are objected to as being dependent upon the rejected base claim, but would be allowable if rewritten in independent form including all of the limitations of the base claim and any intervening claims. Claim 4 is/are allowed. The following is an examiner’s statement of reasons for allowance: As per Claim 4 the prior art of record either alone or in reasonable combination fails to teach or suggest “ The information processing method according to claim 1, wherein the first image data is moving image data configured of a plurality of first frames, and first accessory information recorded in the first image file includes first time information related to a corresponding first frame " These limitations in combination with the other limitations of the independent claim are thus deemed allowable. The closest prior art of record KIM (Pub. No: US 2010-0235336) for Claim 4 does not teach all the elements in combination with the other limitations of the independent claim. KIM only discloses linking first imaging processing of generating a first image file including first image data obtained by imaging a first subject with second imaging processing of generating a second image file including second image data obtained by imaging a second subject, acquiring first subject information related to the first subject, and including the first subject information in second accessory information recorded in the second image file to assign the first subject information to the second image file. 13-03 Any comments considered necessary by applicant must be submitted no later than the payment of the issue fee and, to avoid processing delays, should preferably accompany the issue fee. Such submissions should be clearly labeled “Comments on Statement of Reasons for Allowance.” Conclusion 07-40 AIA Applicant’s amendment necessitated a new ground of rejection. Accordingly, THIS ACTION IS MADE FINAL . See MPEP § 706.07(a). Applicant is reminded of the extension of time policy as set forth in 37 CFR 1.136(a).
