Prior art — US Patent 8861349

To identify the most relevant prior art for US patent 8861349, I will use the USPTO Patent Public Search tool. I will search for the specific patent number 8861349 and then examine the "Cited by" section to find the prior art references that the examiner considered.

Please note that as a large language model, I do not have direct access to the USPTO database for live searching, nor can I interpret which claims are anticipated without a detailed claim-by-claim analysis, which is beyond the scope of this interaction. However, I can provide the format and approach you would use if you were to perform this task manually using the USPTO search tools.

Steps to find the most relevant prior art and perform analysis:

Access USPTO Patent Public Search: Go to the USPTO Patent Public Search website.
Search by Patent Number: Use the "Basic Search" or "Advanced Search" option and enter "8861349" in the patent number field.
Locate "Cited References" or "References Cited": Once the patent document for US8861349B2 is retrieved, navigate to the section listing cited references. These are the prior art documents considered by the patent examiner.
Extract Information for Each Reference: For each patent or publication listed as prior art, extract the following:
- Full Citation: Including patent number, inventor(s), issue date, and title.
- Publication/Filing Date: The relevant date for 35 U.S.C. § 102 analysis.
- Brief Description: A concise summary of the prior art's subject matter, typically found in its abstract or first claim.
- Potential Anticipation (35 U.S.C. § 102): This requires a detailed, claim-by-claim comparison of US8861349B2's claims against the disclosures of each prior art reference. For each reference, one would need to determine if every element of a given claim in US8861349B2 is present in that single prior art reference.

Without direct access to the USPTO database and the ability to perform a detailed claim analysis, I cannot provide the specific prior art details and anticipation analysis for US patent 8861349 at this moment. The provided patent text does not list its own "References Cited" section directly, so an external search of the USPTO database would be necessary.
