OPINION AND ORDER
KENNETH M. KARAS, District Judge.
Plaintiffs Chris Cacace (“Cacace”) and Culinary Edge Creations, LLC (“CEC”) (collectively, “Plaintiffs”) bring this patent infringement action against Defendants Meyer Corporation, U.S. (“Meyer U.S.”) and its affiliate, Meyer Marketing (Macau Commercial Offshore) Co., Ltd. (“Meyer Macau”) (collectively, “Meyer” or “Defendants”), alleging that Defendants have infringed a patent over which Cacace claims ownership and over which CEC claims exploitation rights. The Parties have sought an opinion from the Court to construct the meaning of several claim terms in the patent. What follows is the Court’s construction of those claims. Defendants have also moved for summary judgment, asserting that Plaintiffs’ patent is invalid based on prior art that anticipates the patent’s claims. For the reasons stated herein, Defendants’ motion is denied.
I. Background
A. Facts1
United States Patent No. 6,497,174 (“the '174 Patent”), entitled “Cooking Pan for Sautéing and Deglazing,” was issued to Cacace on December 24, 2002. (Pis.’ Opening Claim Construction Br. (“Pis.’ Opening Br.”) 1.) The '174 Patent is “generally directed to cookware designed to facilitate the mixing of food while cooking without utensils and with minimal spillage.” (Id.) It discloses a pan design that [551]*551allows users to mix the pan’s contents by manipulating the pan’s handle — specifically, the pan design causes the contents of the pan to be propelled upwards, above the cooking surface, then to be directed back into the pan onto the cooking surface. (Id.) Cacace licensed exploitation rights in the '174 Patent to CEC, a company of which he is the principal, including the right to enter into contracts for the manufacture, marketing and distribution of products based upon the '174 Patent. See Cacace v. Meyer Mktg. (Macau Commercial Offshore) Co., 589 F.Supp.2d 314, 316 (S.D.N.Y.2008) (hereinafter “Cacace I”). CEC and Meyer executed a license agreement (the “License Agreement”) on October 28, 2004, which allowed Meyer to manufacture and sell pans based on the '174 Patent (with a royalty of one dollar per pan sold based on the '174 Patent to be paid to CEC) and included a carve-out provision which allowed Meyer to manufacture and market its own pans (based on its own designs) separate and apart from the pans under the License Agreement, without infringing the '174 Patent. See id. at 316-17. Meyer thereafter manufactured and sold pans, under other brand names, and the Parties disputed whether these pans were covered under the License Agreement and, thus, whether royalties were to be paid to CEC on them. See id. at 317-18. Plaintiffs filed suit against Defendants in this Court, alleging two counts of patent infringement in violation of 35 U.S.C. § 271. See id. at 318. Defendants filed counterclaims, alleging non-infringement and invalidity of the '174 Patent, in addition to various tort claims. See id. Both Parties moved for summary judgment, and both motions were denied by this Court in Cacace I. (Dkt. No. 65.)
Meyer continues to assert that its pans do not infringe the '174 Patent, disputing Plaintiffs’ constructions of several of the claim terms. (See Defs.’ Opening Claim Construction Br. (“Defs.’ Opening Br.”); Defs.’ Rebuttal Claim Construction Br. (“Defs.’ Rebuttal”).) The Parties’ proposed claim constructions are discussed below. Additionally, Meyer has introduced prior art, a Japanese patent application, JP 9-234157'(“the '157 reference”) to the Court, which it contends renders the '174 Patent invalid. (Pis.’ Resp. to Defs.’ Local Civil Rule 56.1 Statement of Material Facts and Pis.’ Local Civil Rule 56.1 Statement of Additional Material Facts (“Pis.’ 56.1”) ¶ 3; Defs.’ Local Civil Rule 56.1 Statement of Material Facts (“Defs.’ 56.1”) ¶ 3.) The '157 reference was published on September 9, 1997, and discloses a cooking pan consisting of a base that forms a cooking surface that is bounded by a side wall. (Pis.’ 56.1 ¶¶ 4-6; Defs.’ 56.1 ¶¶4-6.) The side wall has an inside surface which is a line having a curve, including at the top edge of the side wall opposite the handle. (Pis.’ 56.1 ¶ 13; Defs.’ 56.1 ¶ 13; Decl. of Peter I. Sanborn in Supp. of Defs.’ Mot. for Summ. J. of Invalidity of U.S. Patent No. 6,497,174 (“Sanborn Deck”) Ex. 3, at MM0000134.) The '157 reference further “depicts and describes a cooking pan where the lower portion of the side wall opposite the handle has a curvilinear profile,2 so that food pieces that are propelled upward near that side wall when the handle is pulled backward, are directed toward the inside surface of the lower portion of the opposite side walk”3 (Defs.’ [552]*55256.1 ¶ 16.) These features are similar to those disclosed in the '174 Patent. (See Parties’ J.A. of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Evidence for Claim Construction (“J.A.”) 1-9.) Defendants included several visual comparisons between the pans disclosed by the '174 Patent and the '157 reference, including numerous angle measurements which were calculated using a computer program. (Defs.’ 56.1 ¶¶ 28-39.) However, Plaintiffs assert that these depictions, and the angle measurements included within them, should not be relied upon, arguing that Defendants did not provide any factual support for their accuracy, and that there are ambiguities in some of the measurements relied upon by Defendants.4 (Pis.’ 56.1 ¶¶ 28-39.) Further, Plaintiffs argue that there is at least one claim limitation in the '174 Patent that is not disclosed by the '157 reference and, therefore, that the '157 reference does not anticipate the '174 Patent or render it invalid. (Pis.’ Opp’n to Defs.’ Mot. for Summ. J. (“Pis.’ Mem.”) 2.)
B. Procedural History
Plaintiffs filed the Complaint on April 14, 2006. (Dkt. No. 1.) The Parties initially filed cross-motions for summary judgment (Dkt. Nos. 27, 38), which were both denied by the Court in Cacace I, (Dkt. No. 65). On March 12, 2010, the Parties filed claim construction statements for the disputed claim (“Claim 1”) of the '174 Patent (Dkt. Nos. 72, 73), and on April 2, 2010, the Parties filed responses to each other’s construction statements, (Dkt. Nos. 78, 80). A Markman hearing was held on February 16, 2011. On December 16, 2010, Defendants moved for summary judgment based on invalidity of the '174 Patent. (Dkt. No. 103.) Oral argument on this motion also was heard by the Court on February 16, 2011.
II. Discussion
A. Claim Construction
1. Standard of Review
“Victory in an infringement suit requires a finding that the patent claim covers the alleged infringer’s product or process, which in turn necessitates a determination of what the words in the claim mean.” Markman v. Westview Instruments, Inc., 517 U.S. 370, 374, 116 S.Ct. 1384, 134 L.Ed.2d 577 (1996) (internal quotation omitted). In Markman, the Supreme Court held that “the construction of a patent, including terms of art within its claim, is exclusively within the province of the court.” Id. at 372, 116 S.Ct. 1384. The purpose of claim construction “is neither to limit nor to broaden the claims, but to define, as a matter of law, the invention that has been patented.” Netword, LLC v. Centraal Corp., 242 F.3d 1347, 1352 (Fed.Cir.2001).
The importance of intrinsic evidence in patent construction claims has been well established:
It is well-settled that, in interpreting an asserted claim, the court should look first to the intrinsic evidence of record, i.e., the patent itself, including the [553]*553claims, the specification and, if in evidence, the prosecution history. Such intrinsic evidence is the most significant source of the legally operative meaning of disputed claim language.
Vitronics Corp. v. Conceptronic, Inc., 90 F.3d 1576, 1582 (Fed.Cir.1996) (internal citation omitted); accord Phillips v. AWH Corp., 415 F.3d 1303, 1314 (Fed.Cir.2005) (en banc). “In most situations, an analysis of the intrinsic evidence alone will resolve any ambiguity in a disputed claim term.” Vitronics Corp., 90 F.3d at 1583. In fact, where the intrinsic evidence is sufficient to resolve ambiguities, “it is improper to rely on extrinsic evidence” to construe a claim. Id.
“All intrinsic evidence [of a claim] is not equal.” Interactive Gift Express, Inc. v. Compuserve Inc., 256 F.3d 1323, 1331 (Fed.Cir.2001). The first source of a claim is the claim language itself, because “the claims of a patent define the invention to which the patentee is entitled the right to exclude.” Phillips, 415 F.3d at 1312 (internal quotations omitted); accord Vitronics Corp., 90 F.3d at 1582 (“First, we look to the words of the claims themselves, both asserted and nonasserted, to define the scope of the patented invention.”). During claim construction, a disputed term is typically given its “ordinary and customary meaning,” which is “the meaning that the term would have to a person of ordinary skill in the art in question at the time of the invention.” Phillips, 415 F.3d at 1312-13 (internal quotation omitted). However, “a patentee may choose to be his [or her] own lexicographer and use terms in a manner other than their ordinary meaning, as long as the special definition of the term is clearly stated in the patent specification or file history.” Vitronics Corp., 90 F.3d at 1582. After the claim’s language, the court should then consider the rest of the intrinsic evidence, beginning with the specification and finishing with the prosecution history. See id. “This history contains the complete record of all the proceedings before the Patent and Trademark Office, including any express representations made by the applicant regarding the scope of the claims.” Id. In this regard, claims must be construed in the context of the entire patent, including the specification, which “is the single best guide to the meaning of a disputed term.” Phillips, 415 F.3d at 1315 (internal quotation marks omitted). “The specification acts as a dictionary when it expressly defines terms used in the claims or when it defines terms by implication.” Vitronics Corp., 90 F.3d at 1582. Limitations from the specification, however, should not be read into the claims. See Phillips, 415 F.3d at 1323-24; Interactive Gift Express, 256 F.3d at 1331 (“[I]n looking to the specification to construe claim terms, care must be taken to avoid reading limitations appearing in the specification into the claims.” (alterations and internal quotation marks omitted)).
If a patent’s intrinsic evidence does not clarify the meaning of a disputed claim term, only then may a court can consider extrinsic evidence, which includes, but is not limited to, expert and inventor testimony, dictionary definitions, and learned treatises. See Vitronics Corp., 90 F.3d at 1584; Pall Corp. v. Micron Separations, Inc., 66 F.3d 1211, 1216 (Fed.Cir.1995) (noting that courts can consider extrinsic evidence “if needed”). The court is not “barred from considering any particular sources or required to analyze sources in any specific sequence, as long as those sources are not used to contradict claim meaning that is unambiguous in light of the intrinsic evidence.” Phillips, 415 F.3d at 1324.
[B]ecause extrinsic evidence can help educate the court regarding the field of the invention and can help the court determine what a person of ordinary skill in [554]*554the art would understand claim terms to mean, it is permissible for the district court in its sound discretion to admit and use such evidence.
Id. at 1319. However, a court should be mindful that extrinsic evidence is “in general ... less reliable than the patent and its prosecution history in determining how to read claim terms.” Id. at 1318 (describing the court’s “considerable task of filtering the useful extrinsic evidence from the fluff’). Finally, claims should be interpreted so that they are consistent with the “fundamental purpose and significance of the invention, and in a manner consistent with and furthering the purpose of the invention.” Purdue Pharma L.P. v. Boehringer Ingelheim GmbH, 98 F.Supp.2d 362, 375 (S.D.N.Y.2000) (alteration, citation, and internal quotation marks omitted), aff'd, 237 F.3d 1359, 1364 (Fed.Cir.2001).
2. Analysis
The Parties dispute the proper construction of five terms in Claim 1 of the '174 patent. The Court will discuss each in turn.
a. “Curvilinear Profile”
The '174 Patent consists of 10 claims, including independent Claim 1. Claim 1 sets forth, in part, a “side wall [which] has an inside surface having a curvilinear profile in a plane that is normal to the cooking surface.” '174 Patent col. 10, 11. 63-65.5 The Parties dispute the meaning of the term “curvilinear profile.” Plaintiffs contend that “curvilinear profile” means “[a] line having a curve,” while Defendants counter that the term, as used in the patent, means “Represented by a smooth, curved line.” (Pis.’ Opening Br. 7.) Essentially, the dispute is over whether a curvilinear profile may include flat, uncurved regions, or whether it must- be curved along the entirety of its length. (Id.)6
The Court accepts Defendants’ construction of this claim term and finds that the plain language of the claim implies that the inside surface of the side wall is curved along its entire length.7 Despite Plaintiffs’ contentions, the plain language does not appear to contemplate a line that is curved in some areas and is otherwise straight. Rather, curvilinear profile means simply that: a profile that is curved, not straight or flat. This interpretation of the plain language of the claim is supported by the specification, sections upon which both Parties rely. Plaintiffs state that Figure 2 of the specification “demonstrates that the ‘curvilinear’ side wall of the pan in fact [555]*555includes portions that are plainly not curved.” (Pis.’ Opening Br. 8.) The Court, however, is unconvinced by this assertion. It is not at all clear that there are plainly uncurved portions of the pan’s side wall. Notably, and as Defendants point out, overly-magnified images of any curve can make it appear as though sections of that curve are flat. (Defs.’ Rebuttal Br. 2.) Additionally, slowly-curving surfaces may in fact appear flat in some regions, rendering any naked eye observations potentially unreliable. Indeed, although Plaintiffs attempt to demonstrate through these visual images that the portion of the side wall near the top edge of the pan is straight (Pis.’ Rebuttal Claim Construction Br. (“Pis.’ Rebuttal Br.”) 4), this point is belied by the specification’s explanation that “the upper portion 24 of the side wall has a curvilinear inside surface 26 that extends upward and radially inward of the pan,” clearly describing the top part of the pan as curving inward toward the handle.8 '174 Patent col. 3, 11. 33-35. Therefore, Plaintiffs’ reliance on Figure 2 of the specification for this point is unavailing.
Defendants, on the other hand, point to language in the specification describing “a lower portion 18 of the side wall next to the cooking surface [that] rises smoothly upward and away from the cooking surface boundary.” (Defs.’ Opening Br. 10 (quoting '174 Patent col. 2, 1. 66-col. 3, 1. 1).) Defendants further point out that the patent figures are described as being “configured according to the invention,” and that the description of this “smooth” portion of the side wall is part of a “detailed description of the invention,” thus limiting the claims to that particular embodiment. (Id.) See Am. Med. Sys., Inc. v. Biolitec, Inc., 618 F.3d 1354, 1366 (Fed.Cir.2010) (“ ‘[W]hen the preferred embodiment is described in the specification as the invention itself, the claims are not necessarily entitled to a scope broader than that embodiment.’” (quoting Chimie v. PPG Indus., Inc., 402 F.3d 1371, 1379 (Fed.Cir.2005))). Plaintiffs, however, counter that the claims may not be limited only to disclosed embodiments absent a clear limiting disclaimer in the intrinsic record. (Pis.’ Rebuttal Br. 4 n. 3 (citing Nautilus Grp., Inc. v. Icon Health & Fitness, Inc., 82 Fed.Appx. 691, 694 (Fed.Cir.2003) (“[A] construing court may not limit the claims to the disclosed embodiments without a clear disclaimer in the intrinsic record that limits the invention to these embodiments and nothing more.”)).) See also Liebel-Flarsheim Co. v. Medrad, Inc., 358 F.3d 898, 906 (Fed.Cir.2004) (“Even when the specification describes only a single embodiment, the claims of the patent will not be read restrictively unless the patentee has demonstrated a clear intention to limit the claim scope using words or expressions of manifest exclusion or restriction.” (internal quotation marks omitted)).
Even if the Court were to accept Plaintiffs’ position that the disclosed embodiments are not the only intended embodiment of the invention, it still finds that Defendants’ construction of this claim limitation should prevail. The term “curvilinear profile” means a profile marked by its curvature. Plaintiffs’ only argument against this interpretation is that the side wall in Figure 2 appears to have portions that are not curved. As noted above, this argument is at best misguided, if not factually incorrect. There is nothing in the intrinsic record that would suggest other[556]*556wise, i.e., that Plaintiffs contemplated. an embodiment including a side wall featuring a “curvilinear profile,” with that side wall having a point at which the “curvilinear profile” stops curving and becomes flat. This finding is bolstered by the fact that, according to the specification, the lower portion of the side wall is curved (which Plaintiffs do not dispute), as well as the fact that the top portion of the side wall is curved (discussed above, and also below in the “Tangent” section), despite Plaintiffs’ protestations to the contrary. If the inside surface of a side wall with a “curvilinear profile” features curves at both of its ends, the Court finds that the inside surface constantly curves in-between. Therefore, the Court construes the term “curvilinear profile” as referring to a side wall that is curved along the entirety of its length.9
b. “Tangent”
Claim 1 of the '174 Patent discloses a pan comprising “a line drawn tangent to said curvilinear profile substantially at [the] fourth point.” '174 Patent col. 11,11.15-16. Plaintiffs’ proposed construction of the term “tangent” is “[m]aking contact at a single point or along a line,” while Defendants propose that “tangent” means “[m]eeting a curve at only one point.” (Pis.’ Opening Br. 16; Defs.’ Opening Br. 13.) Plaintiffs again rely on Figure 2 of the specification to support their argument, asserting that the side wall near the top edge appears to be straight, not curved, and that the tangent line therefore appears to be in contact with the side wall at more than one point, making Defendants’ proposed construction too restrictive. (Pis.’ Opening Br. 17.) However, as noted in the Court’s discussion of the term “curvilinear profile,” Plaintiffs’ reliance on these visual images is improper in this instance and cannot be accepted as conclusive evidence either that the pan is straight at this location of the side wall (indeed, the Court finds that it is not) or that a tangent line in fact intersects the curvilinear profile of the side wall at more than one point.10 Assuming that the inside surface of the side wall is curved at this location, a line tangent to the inside surface’s curvilinear profile “substantially at [the] fourth point” would intersect the sur[557]*557face in only one location. Indeed, the fact that the claim language refers to a specific point at or near which the tangent line must be drawn further supports Defendants’ proposed construction of the term “tangent” as meeting a curve at only one point. Taken together, then, the intrinsic record supports the adoption of Defendants’ proposed construction, notwithstanding the existence of a dictionary definition of “tangent” as “[mjaking contact at a single point or along a line ...which contemplates Plaintiffs’ proposed construction. (J.A. 87 (citing The American Heritage College Dictionary 1385 (3d ed.1993)).) See Phillips, 415 F.3d at 1322-23 (holding that extrinsic evidence, such as dictionary definitions, may be considered when construing claim terms, unless those definitions “contradict any definition found in or ascertained by a reading of the patent documents”). The weight of the intrinsic evidence is consistent with the conclusion that Plaintiffs intended to apply the plain, more commonly understood definition of “tangent,” which is “[a] straight line that touches a curve at only one point.” (J.A. 84 (citing The MacMillan Encyclopedia (2003)).) Therefore, the Court adopts Defendants’ construction of this term.
c. “Second and Third Points”
Claim 1 of the '174 Patent discloses “an upper portion of [a] side wall [which] has a top edge that rises upward from the cooking surface from second and third points on the top edge, to a fourth point on the top edge.” '174 Patent col. 11,11.10-12. Plaintiffs’ proposed construction of this claim is as follows: “The top edge of the side wall rises from two locations along the top edge of the side wall, one on each side of the first point and between the first and fourth points, to a location on the top edge of the side wall, opposite the handle.” (Pis.’ Opening Br. 12.) Defendants do not offer their own proposed construction for this element of claim 1, but rather argue that Plaintiffs’ proposed construction is over-inclusive, as it allows for an infinite number of pairs of locations (i.e., second and third points) along the top edge that rise upward to a fourth point on the top edge, which is impermissible given the specificity of the claim language. (Defs.’ Opening Br. 15-17.)
Plaintiffs argue that the claim language and the specification support their proposed claim construction. Their construction does, in fact, track the claim language closely. Further, Figure 1 of the specification clearly portrays the “two locations along the top edge of the side wall,” points P2 and P3, from which the top edge rises to the fourth point, P4, near the top of the side wall. (Pis.’ Opening Br. 13.) Plaintiffs further demonstrate that there are other pairs of points — for example, points P2a and P3a — from which the top edge also rises to the fourth point. (Id. at 14.) Defendants, however, assert that this construction essentially reads out the claim language, which specifically refers to “first,” “second,” “third,” and “fourth” points.11 (Defs.’ Opening Br. 15.) Additionally, Defendants point out that Figure 1 of the specification includes two points (and only two points), P2 and P3, from which the top edge rises to the fourth point. Thus, they argue that any construction of this claim limitation must explicitly restrict the pan to featuring only [558]*558these two points. (Id. at 16.) The Court finds that Defendants’ assertions have some merit, and that Plaintiffs’ proposed construction should refer more specifically to the points as they are described in the claim limitation. A wholesale adoption of Defendants’ view, however, would lead to an absurd result for the following reasons.
The second and third points described in Claim 1 are the first points at which the top edge begins to rise. However, if one were to start from these points and trace a path along the side wall up to the fourth point, one would inevitably pass other pairs of points (e.g., points P2a and P3a, P2b and P3b, and so on) from which the top edge also rises to a fourth point, because once the side wall begins to rise at points P2 and P3, it does not stop rising. In other words, between points P2 and P3 and the fourth point, P4, there are an infinite number of points from which the side wall rises, because of the very nature of the claimed invention. The claim language refers merely to the first two points from which the top edge begins to rise. Therefore, the Court finds that a proper construction of this claim is: the top edge of the side wall begins to rise from two locations along the top edge of the side wall, one on each side of the first point and between the first and fourth points, to a location on the top edge of the side wall, opposite the handle.12 Such a construction refers only to the two points — P2 and P3— from which the top edge of the side wall begins to rise, and does not include the infinite number of points along the top edge of the side wall, between P2/P3 and P4, that also rise toward P4, thus addressing the heart of Defendants’ concerns about the construction of this claim limitation. Accordingly, this is the construction that will be adopted by the Court.
d. “Substantially at Said Fourth Point”
The '174 Patent discloses “a line drawn tangent to said curvilinear profile substantially at said fourth point.” '174 Patent col. 11, 11. 15-16. Plaintiffs’ proposed construction for the term “sub[559]*559stantially at said fourth point” is “[i]n the vicinity of the fourth point.” (Pis.’ Opening Br. 15.) Defendants, however, argue that the term “substantially at said fourth point” is indefinite under 35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶ 2 (id.), which requires that “[t]he specification ... conclude with one or more claims particularly pointing out and distinctly claiming the subject matter which the applicant regards as his [or her] invention.” 13 “[T]he standard for assessing whether a patent claim is sufficiently definite to satisfy th[is] statutory requirement [is] as follows: If one skilled in the art would understand the bounds of the claim when read in light of the specification, then the claim satisfies section 112 paragraph 2.” Exxon Research & Eng’g Co. v. United States, 265 F.3d 1371, 1375 (Fed.Cir.2001).
The Federal Circuit has held that a claim should be held indefinite where it is “insolubly ambiguous”; however, “claims are not indefinite merely because they present a difficult task of claim construction. Instead, if the meaning of the claim is discernible, even though the task may be formidable and the conclusion may be one over which reasonable persons will disagree, [the Federal Circuit has] held the claim sufficiently clear to avoid invalidity on indefiniteness grounds.” Halliburton Energy Servs., Inc. v. M-I LLC, 514 F.3d 1244, 1249 (Fed.Cir.2008) (alteration and internal quotation marks omitted). The standard of proving indefiniteness “is met where an accused infringer shows by clear and convincing evidence that a skilled artisan could not discern the boundaries of the claim based on the claim language, the specification, and the prosecution history, as well as [his or] her knowledge of the relevant art area.” Id. at 1249-50.
Defendants claim that the term in question “leavefs] open the question of exactly how close the tangent line should be drawn to the fourth point.” (Defs.’ Opening Br. 19.) They assert that this ambiguity in terminology, combined with a complete lack of guidance in the claim language, specification, and prosecution history, provides insufficient guidance to those skilled in the art to determine whether a product falls within the scope of the claims. (Id. at 20-22.) Defendants therefore believe that the term “substantially at said fourth point” is indefinite under 35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶ 2. The Court does not agree. As an initial matter, Figure 2 of the specification does in fact provide a standard which enables those skilled in the art to determine whether a tangent line has been drawn “substantially at said fourth point.” The locations of the fourth point, and the line tangent to the curvilinear profile of the inside surface of the side wall “substantially at said fourth point,” are clear in the patent drawings, and thus provide a sufficient guide to anyone skilled in the art to determine the proper location of the tangent line. In similar circumstances courts have upheld similar language in patent claims as not indefinite. See, e.g., Power-One, Inc. v. Artesyn Techs., Inc., 599 F.3d 1343, 1348-49 (Fed.Cir.2010) (affirming district court’s ruling that the term “near” was not vague or subjective, especially where the specification illustrated the location of the element in question, thus “providing a standard for measuring the term”); Young v. Lumenis, Inc., 492 F.3d 1336, 1345-47 (Fed.Cir.2007) (overturning district court’s determination that the term “near” was indefinite). Finally, Defendants offer nothing more than attorney [560]*560argument to prove that those skilled in the art would not be able to discern the meaning of “substantially at said fourth point,” as that term is used in the patent, and it is well-settled that “[m]ere attorney argument is no substitute for evidence of record.” McGinley v. Franklin Sports, Inc., 262 F.3d 1339, 1362 (Fed.Cir.2001); see also Hypoxico, Inc. v. Colo. Altitude Training, LLC, No. 02-CV-6191, 2008 WL 4129269, at *10 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 4, 2008) (finding claim terms not indefinite where defendant “offer[ed] only the conclusory statements of counsel in support of its argument that one skilled in the art would not understand” the scope of the claim terms); cf. Kinzenbaw v. Case, LLC, No. 01-CV-133, 2005 WL 4827380, at *4-6 (N.D.Iowa Feb. 4, 2005) (holding that party which offered expert testimony to demonstrate indefiniteness of claim term which disclosed, in part, a “vertical axis of rotation of [a] lift frame [that] is substantially on a center line,” failed to meet its burden of proving indefiniteness by clear and convincing evidence). Accordingly, the Court finds that Defendants have failed to prove by clear and convincing evidence that the term “substantially at said fourth point” is indefinite.
e. “Substantially Within the Forward Region”
The '174 Patent discloses a pan comprising an angle of between 2 and 10 degrees, formed by a line drawn tangent to the curvilinear profile (discussed above) substantially at the fourth point and a line that is normal to the cooking surface, “wherein the food pieces that are propelled upward near the side wall opposite the handle when the handle is pulled backward, are directed by the upper portion of the side wall to land substantially within the forward region of [the] cooking surface.” '174 Patent col. 11,11. 18-22. Plaintiffs do not offer any proposed construction for this limitation, arguing instead that one of ordinary skill in the art would understand both the action that is required to propel the food, and the desired result. (Pis.’ Opening Br. 20.) Defendants argue that this claim limitation is indefinite under 35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶ 2.
The Court outlined the framework for analyzing claim terms for indefiniteness under 35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶ 2 above, in Section II.A.2.d. Here, Defendants assert that the limitation is indefinite on the grounds that “the specification fails to provide a test method or objective basis for determining whether a product or process falls within the scope of the claim.” (Defs.’ Opening Br. 22.) See Honeywell Int’l, Inc. v. Int’l Trade Comm’n, 341 F.3d 1332, 1340—41 (Fed.Cir.2003) (finding claim indefinite where the patent failed to provide guidance on the proper test to apply to confirm the existence of the claim limitation, where several tests existed, each of which produced different results). Because, Defendants argue, it is unclear how to measure whether food has landed “substantially within the forward region” of the cooking area, the limitation is indefinite.
The Court rejects Defendants’ arguments for several reasons. First, as noted above, terms of degree, such as “substantially,” do not automatically render claim terms indefinite. See Andrew Corp. v. Gabriel Elecs., Inc., 847 F.2d 819, 821-22 (Fed.Cir.1988) (noting that terms of degree are acceptable in patent claims to the extent that they alert persons of ordinary skill in the art to what is being claimed). Second, despite Defendants’ assertions to the contrary, the specification does indeed provide sufficient guidance to a person of ordinary skill in the art to understand the scope of the claim limitation. Figure 2 of the specification clearly depicts the “forward region” of the cooking surface, denoted as “28” in the drawing. (J.A. 1.) Therefore, any argument that it is unclear where the food pieces are sup[561]*561posed to land (Defs.’ Opening Br. 22), is without merit. Further, as Plaintiffs note, the specification does indeed contain language explaining the meaning of this particular claim limitation. (Pis.’ Rebuttal Br. 20-21.) For example, the specification explains that “[t]he lower portion ... is formed so that when the pan handle ... is moved suddenly backward ... pieces of food when placed on the food surface ... are urged against the lower portion ... and propelled upward near the side wall,” and that food pieces so manipulated “are directed ... to land within a forward region of the cooking surface further from the handle of the pan, rather than outside the pan or near the handle.” (Id. (quoting '174 Patent col. 2,11. 30-34, col. 3,11. 1-6).) Therefore, the level of force necessary to be applied is that which would “urge” the food pieces against the lower portion, an aspect of the claim which reasonably would be understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. The specification also describes a series of tests performed on various types of foods in pans with side walls of varying angle measures, and the results of those tests. (Id. at 21; see also '174 Patent col. 3, 1. 55-col. 10, 1. 9.)14 Thus, contrary to Defendants’ assertions, Plaintiffs have addressed a number of the variables that Defendants contend are not accounted for in the patent specification (Defs.’ Opening Br. 24), including the type and amount of food used and the speed with which the pan must be pulled backward.15 Finally, Defendants rely exclusively upon attorney argument in support of their contention that this claim limitation is indefinite, and as discussed above in Section II.A.2.d, mere attorney argument is insufficient to establish invalidity based on indefiniteness. See McGinley, 262 F.3d at 1362; Hypoxico, 2008 WL 4129269, at *10. Defendants, therefore, have not established by clear and convincing evidence that this claim limitation is indefinite. Therefore, the Court finds that this claim limitation is not indefinite under 35 U.S.C. § 112, ¶ 2.
B. Summary Judgment
Summary judgment shall be granted where it is shown “that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact and the movant is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.” Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(a); see also Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322, 106 S.Ct. 2548, 91 L.Ed.2d 265 (1986) (same). “When ruling on a summary judgment motion, the district court must construe the facts in the light most favorable to the non-moving party and must resolve all ambiguities and draw all reasonable inferences against the movant.” Dall. Aerospace, Inc. v. CIS Air Corp., 352 F.3d 775, 780 (2d Cir.2003); see also Tufariello v. Long Island R.R. Co., 458 F.3d 80, 85 (2d Cir.2006) (noting that a court must draw all reasonable inferences in the nonmovant’s favor).
A party seeking summary judgment bears the burden of establishing that no [562]*562genuine issue of material fact exists. See Atl. Mut. Ins. Co. v. CSX Lines, L.L.C., 432 F.3d 428, 433 (2d Cir.2005). “When the burden of proof at trial would fall on the nonmoving party, it ordinarily is sufficient for the movant to point to a lack of evidence to go to the trier of fact on an essential element of the nonmovant’s claim. In that event, the nonmoving party must come forward with admissible evidence sufficient to raise a genuine issue of fact for trial in order to avoid summary judgment.” Jaramillo v. Weyerhaeuser Co., 536 F.3d 140, 145 (2d Cir.2008) (citations omitted). “When the moving party has carried its burden under Rule 56[ (a) ], its opponent must do more than simply show that there is some metaphysical doubt as to the material facts.” Matsushita Electric Indus. Co. v. Zenith Radio Corp., 475 U.S. 574, 586, 106 S.Ct. 1348, 89 L.Ed.2d 538 (1986) (footnote omitted); see also McPherson v. N.Y.C. Dep’t of Educ., 457 F.3d 211, 215 n. 4 (2d Cir.2006) (“[Speculation alone is insufficient to defeat a motion for summary judgment.”). “A fact is ‘material’ when it might affect the outcome of the suit under governing law.” McCarthy v. Dun & Bradstreet Corp., 482 F.3d 184, 202 (2d Cir.2007) (internal quotation marks omitted). At summary judgment, a court is not charged with weighing the evidence and determining its truth, but with determining whether there is a genuine issue for trial. See Westinghouse Electric Corp. v. N.Y.C. Transit Auth., 735 F.Supp. 1205, 1212 (S.D.N.Y.1990). A court’s goal should be “to isolate and dispose of factually unsupported claims.” Celotex, 477 U.S. at 323-24, 106 S.Ct. 2548.
Patents are presumed to be valid, and this presumption may be overcome only through facts supported by clear and convincing evidence. See SRAM Corp. v. AD-II Eng’g, 465 F.3d 1351, 1357 (Fed.Cir.2006) (citing 35 U.S.C. § 282 and U.S. Surgical Corp. v. Ethicon, Inc., 103 F.3d 1554, 1563 (Fed.Cir.1997)); see also Nextec Applications v. Brookwood Cos., 703 F.Supp.2d 390, 420 (S.D.N.Y.2010) (noting the same). Therefore, “a moving party seeking to invalidate a patent at summary judgment must submit such clear and convincing evidence of facts underlying invalidity that no reasonable jury could find otherwise.” SRAM Corp., 465 F.3d at 1357; see also Zenith Elecs. Corp. v. PDI Commc’n Sys., Inc., 522 F.3d 1348, 1357 (Fed.Cir.2008) (“Summary judgment [of invalidity] is proper if no reasonable jury could find that the patent is not anticipated.”); Gen. Electric Co. v. Nintendo Co., 179 F.3d 1350, 1353 (Fed.Cir.1999) (noting that the question of invalidity may be decided on summary judgment if the record reveals no genuine dispute of material fact).
A party may show that a patent is invalid by demonstrating that it was anticipated by prior art. See 35 U.S.C. 102(b) (“A person shall be entitled to a patent unless ... the invention was patented or described in a printed publication in this or a foreign country ... more than one year prior to the date of the application for patent in the United States.”). A demonstration of anticipation “requires a showing that each element of the claim at issue, properly construed, is found in a single prior art reference.” Zenith Elecs. Corp., 522 F.3d at 1363. Therefore, in order to anticipate, “[a] prior art reference must disclose every limitation of the claimed invention,” but such disclosure may be done “either explicitly or inherently.” Telemac Cellular Corp. v. Topp Telecom, Inc., 247 F.3d 1316, 1327 (Fed.Cir.2001). Prior art inherently discloses a claim limitation “ ‘if the prior art necessarily functions in accordance with, or includes, the claimed limitations,’ ” and inherency is a question of fact for the Court. [563]*563Id. (quoting MEHL/Biophile Int’l Corp. v. Milgraum, 192 F.3d 1362, 1365 (Fed.Cir.1999)) (analyzing district court’s inherency finding).
Here, Defendants assert that the '157 reference contains all of the claim limitations of the '174 Patent, both explicitly and inherently, and thus anticipates its teachings and renders the patent invalid.16 Defendants first note that the '157 reference “constitutes an enabling disclosure” (Mem. of Law in Supp. of Defs.’ Mot. for Summ. J. (“Defs.’ Mem.”) 6), meaning that it is detailed enough to allow a person of ordinary skill in the art to practice the invention without undue experimentation. See Sanofi-Synthelabo v. Apotex, Inc., 492 F.Supp.2d 353, 382 (S.D.N.Y.2007) (noting that a prior art reference “must be an enabling disclosure, rather than mere vague intimations of general ideas that may or may not be workable” (internal quotation marks omitted)), aff'd, 550 F.3d 1075 (Fed.Cir.2008), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 130 S.Ct. 493, 175 L.Ed.2d 346 (2009). Defendants then compare the features of the '157 reference to those in the '174 Patent. (Defs.’ Mem. 7-24.) As noted above, Plaintiffs contest these comparisons in part to the extent that they believe there are ambiguities regarding which element of the '157 reference constitutes the cooking surface — an assertion that the Court finds is unsupportable, see supra note 4, — and to the extent that they believe that the '157 reference does not feature a side wall with a curvilinear profile, which the Court also finds is incorrect, see supra note 3.
Therefore, the Parties’ primary remaining dispute — and the one the Court will focus on here — is whether Defendants’ measurements of the angles in the '157 reference are admissible. If they are, then this would allow the Court to find that the '157 reference inherently discloses other of the claim limitations of the '174 Patent, possibly rendering the patent invalid as anticipated. The '157 reference does not explicitly disclose any angle limitations. However, Defendants have conducted their own measurements of the figures in the '157 reference, and argue that these measurements demonstrate that the angle between a line tangent to a point at the top edge of the forward side wall and a line normal to the cooking surface is between 2 and 10 degrees, the same as Angle A, and that a pan featuring this angle will inherently perform the functions claimed in the '174 Patent. (Defs.’ Mem. 21-22.) As an initial matter, then, the Court must determine whether Defendants’ measurements of the figures in the '157 reference were appropriate. The Court finds that they were not.
The law is clear that precise measurements should not be made, and should not be considered by a court, where the drawings and figures from which those measurements are derived are silent as to scale and proportion. See Nystrom v. TREX Co., 424 F.3d 1136, 1149 (Fed.Cir.2005) (“ ‘Absent any written [564]*564description in the specification of quantitative values, arguments based on measurements of a drawing are of little value.’ ”) (quoting In re Wright, 569 F.2d 1124, 1127 (C.C.P.A.1977)); Hockerson-Halberstadt, Inc. v. Avia Grp. Int’l Inc., 222 F.3d 951, 956 (Fed.Cir.2000) (“[I]t is well established that patent drawings do not define the precise proportions of the elements and may not be relied on to show particular sizes if the specification is completely silent on the issue.”); Tenneco Auto. Operating Co. v. Visteon Corp., 375 F.Supp.2d 366, 374 n. 9 (D.Del.2005) (rejecting defendant’s argument that foreign patent drawing disclosed certain claim limitations, because to do so would “require making precise measurements without a special indication that such measurements were part of the invention”).
Nystrom is particularly instructive here. In that case, which involved curved flooring boards, the district court found certain patent claims invalid as anticipated by a prior art reference. See Nystrom, 424 F.3d at 1148. Specifically, the district court, instead of applying the Federal Circuit’s holdings in In re Wright and Hockerson-Halberstadt — which it found inapplicable — inquired as to whether a person of ordinary skill in the art would use measurements from the prior art reference to determine the proper degree of board curvature, and answered that question in the affirmative. See id. The Federal Circuit reversed, holding that the district court erred in ignoring “[the Federal Circuit’s] disfavor in reading precise proportions into patent drawings which do not expressly provide such proportions.” Id. at 1149. Here, as in Nystrom, Defendants ask the Court to ignore Federal Circuit precedent and allow precise measurements to be applied to the '157 reference. Defendants attempt to distinguish Nystrom, noting that there, the defendant’s measurements were not directly based on the prior art figures themselves, but rather were based on computer simulations of those figures. (Defs.’ Mem. 19-20.) However, as Plaintiffs note (Pis.’ Mem. 15 n. 7), the Federal Circuit was less concerned with the use of a computer model than it was that the model was “premised on unstated assumptions in prior art patent drawings.” Nystrom, 424 F.3d at 1149.17 Similarly, the [565]*565drawings in the '157 reference contain no indicia that they are drawn to scale, nor is there any language in the specification relating to size or angle measurements.18 (Sanborn Decl. Ex. 4.) Therefore, following the precedent of the Federal Circuit, the Court will not consider any measurements obtained based on these figures in determining whether the '174 Patent is invalid as anticipated by prior art. Accordingly, the Court finds that the '157 reference does not disclose Angle A of the '174 Patent. Because the '157 reference does not contain each element of Claim 1 of the '174 Patent, it does not anticipate the '174 Patent. Therefore, Defendants’ motion for summary judgment on the basis of the patent’s invalidity is denied.19
III. Conclusion
For the foregoing reasons, the Court construes the disputed claim terms as described in this Opinion. Defendants’ motion for summary judgment is denied. The Clerk of the Court is respectfully directed to terminate the pending motion, (Dkt. No. 103).
