  • holding that the Board erred when it found objective evidence lacked a nexus where at least some of the evidence related to the “patented design as a whole”
  • “[O]bjective evidence of nonobviousness lacks a nexus if it exclusively relates to a feature that was known in the prior art.”
  • “Objective evidence of nonobviousness need only be ‘reasonably commensurate with the scope of the claims,’ and we do not require a patentee to produce objective evidence of nonobviousness for every potential embodiment of the claim.”
