Invention relieve!? Hello, I have a thought invention-wise for an academic base product...what do

Hello,
I have a thought invention-wise for an academic base product...what do recommend should be the next steps to putting it on the shelves. I know that I eventually stipulation a prototype... can you recommend a manufactuer? (preferably in the northeastern area)

Most major university (engineering department) have the aptitude to create prototypes. The equipment they would use for this would be called "fast prototyping equipment." And, they will be less expensive that going to a private company. That's where on earth I would begin. I've have 2 prototypes built by local schools.

Before you draw from a manufacturer - you want to protect your perception if it's an invention. Go to the main public library within your town and request information on the patent process. You may even want to copyright it until you at most minuscule get a provisional government grant which marks the date and give you 1 year to actually apply for the exclusive rights itself. Get a non-discolosure agreement and have society sign it before discussing your opinion for further assistance.

Good Luck

"Northeastern area" is thoroughly vague, I don't even know what country you're surrounded by.

First though, you need to seize it down, write up diagrams galore until you have a clear one that illustrate well what you're thinking. Make sure to reason things through.

Then you need to apply for a rights for your invention. The process of applying I think costs a bit and take forever, but you can still work on it, even sell it even if the official document hasn't gone through yet, it's call "patent pending" and you'll see that on profoundly of products awaiting patent documents, just because it take so long. Copyright is automatic, patenting is not, and takes a long time.

But after you've applied for a government grant, which you do by going to a patent legal representative in your nouns which should make things assured, after that you build your prototype. You don't need a entrepreneur for this necessarily, if it's simple you can put together one yourself. If not then the easiest leeway is likely to dance to a University or College and ask around for the department that deals beside design and drafting and such, see if they can help you design and build a prototype. This should be far cheaper as powerfully compared to going right to a manufacturer.

Make sure after applying for your official document that you put "patent pending" on anything to do beside it.

The next step is to produce it yourself, or get rid of the patent, or allow someone else to produce it and confer you royalties(this option one the best, as it's lowest risk to you, and you get a kickback, a great deal of inventors go this route).

Anyhow, there's expected a ton of books on the topic, look online, or go to your local bookstore.
