We have been informed by our reviewing court that “a single claim covering both an apparatus and a method of use of that apparatus” fails to meet the requirements of § 112 because “it is unclear whether infringement . . . occurs when one creates a[n infringing] system, or whether infringement occurs when the user actually uses [the system in an infringing manner],” e.g., attempts to transfer heat to the “surroundings.”  IPXL Holdings, LLC v. Amazon.com, Inc., 430 F.3d 1377, 1384 (Fed. Cir. 2005).  In other words, “a construction that would require empirical testing is incorrect.”  Homeland Housewares v. Whirlpool, 865 F.3d 1372, 1375 (Fed. Cir. 2017).  Accordingly, claim 1 is a claim wherein “one would be at a loss to determine whether a particular [apparatus] is covered by [the] claim.”  Ex parte Brummer, 12 USPQ.2d 1653, 1655 (BPAI 1989).

IPXL Holdings v. Amazon.com, Inc., 430 F.2d 1377, 77 USPQ2d 1140 (Fed. Cir. 2005) 2173.05(p)
