Additionally, “[o]bviousness requires more than a mere showing that the prior art includes separate references covering each separate limitation in a claim under examination.” Unigene Labs., Inc. v. Apotex, Inc., 655 F.3d 1352, 1360 (Fed. Cir. 2011). Moreover, while it is well-established that any obviousness analysis must, on some level, rely on hindsight, it is impermissible to engage in a hindsight reconstruction of the claimed invention, using the applicant’s invention as a template and selecting elements from references to fill the gaps. Interconnect Planning Corp. v. Feil, 774 F.2d 1132, 1143 (Fed. Cir. 1985).
