Finally, we are not persuaded of error by Owner’s argument based upon American Calcar, Inc. v. American Honda Motor Co., Inc., 651 F.3d 1318, 1340 (Fed. Cir. 2011), to show that “in response to” requires an automatic action without user interaction. Appeal Brief 25. The Federal Circuit’s decision in American
Calcar, Inc. v. American Honda Motor Co., Inc. involves a district court’s claim construction which is not based upon the broadest reasonable interpretation standard, and is based upon the disclosure in particular to that case. As such, the holding does not have direct bearing on the case currently before us. Thus, we concur with the Examiner’s interpretation of the limitation “generating . . . in response to the display of [the] first segment” to be such that there is a causal relationship between the first and second segments, but not limited to the generation being automatic and without user interaction.

In assessing the probative value of an expert opinion, we must consider three factors: 1) the interest of
the expert in the outcome of the case, 2) the presence or absence of factual support for the expert’s opinion, and 3) the strength of any opposing evidence. Ashland Oil, Inc. v. Delta Resins & Refractories, Inc., 776 F.2d 281 (Fed. Cir. 1985).
