Prior art — US Patent 9281314

To identify the most relevant prior art for US patent 9281314 and analyze potential anticipation under 35 U.S.C. § 102, I will use the USPTO's Patent Public Search tool. The USPTO provides resources for conducting prior art searches, including databases for U.S. patents and published applications.

As a technical patent analyst, I will now proceed to search the USPTO database for US patent 9281314 to extract its cited references. Then, for each cited patent, I will gather the full citation, publication/filing date, and a brief description. Finally, I will analyze which claim(s) of US 9281314 each reference might potentially anticipate under 35 U.S.C. § 102.

Since I do not have direct access to the USPTO database for live searching, I will outline the process for a human analyst to perform this task:

Search Strategy for Prior Art Analysis:

Access USPTO Patent Public Search: Navigate to the USPTO Patent Public Search website.
Search for US9281314: Use the "Patent or Publication number" field in the basic search or advanced search to precisely locate US patent 9281314.
Identify Cited References: Once the patent document for US9281314 is open, locate the "References Cited" section. This section lists all prior art patents and publications considered by the examiner during prosecution.
For Each Cited Patent Reference:
- Full Citation: Record the patent number, issue date, inventor(s), and assignee.
- Publication/Filing Date: Note both the filing date and the publication/issue date. The earlier of these dates is generally relevant for prior art determination.
- Brief Description: Read the abstract and a quick scan of the claims and specification of the cited patent to understand its core invention.
- Potential Anticipation Analysis (35 U.S.C. § 102):
  - Carefully review the claims of US9281314.
  - Compare each claim of US9281314 against the disclosure of the cited prior art patent.
  - Determine if every element of any given claim in US9281314 is present, either explicitly or inherently, in the single prior art reference. If so, identify the specific claim(s) in US9281314 that could be anticipated. Anticipation under 35 U.S.C. § 102 means that the claimed invention is not new because it was previously disclosed in a single prior art reference.

This process would be repeated for all patent citations listed in US9281314 to thoroughly identify the most relevant prior art and assess potential anticipation.
