 “To qualify as prior art for an obviousness analysis, a reference must qualify as ‘analogous art,’ i.e., it must satisfy one of the following conditions: (1) the reference must be from the same field of endeavor; or (2) the reference must be reasonably pertinent to the particular problem with which the inventor is involved.”  K-TEC, Inc. v. Vita-Mix Corp., 696 F.3d 1364, 1375 (Fed. Cir. 2012)

We are further guided by In re Bigio, 381 F.3d 1320 (Fed. Cir. 2004) in which our reviewing court stated that the analogous art “test does not make the assessment of the field of endeavor a wholly subjective call for the examiner.”  Bigio, 381 F.3d at 1326
