The use of terms such as "about," "substantially," and "approximately" does not automatically render a claim indefinite. See, e.g., Deere & Co. v. Bush Hog, LLC, 703 F.3d 1349, 1359 (Fed. Cir. 2012) ("This court has repeatedly confirmed that relative terms such as "substantially" do not render patent claims so unclear as to prevent a person of skill in the art from ascertaining the scope of the claim."); Ecolab, Inc. v. Envirochem, Inc., 264 F.3d 1358, 1367 (Fed.Cir.2001); Andrew Corp. v. Gabriel Elecs. Inc., 847 F.2d 819, 821 (Fed.Cir.1988)
