Week 2 Discussion: What Can Be Patented?

For this discussion, we will be focusing on the product depicted below. You will review the product in light of this week’s readings and determine if it is an item that is patentable or not. Place yourself in the shoes of a business that focuses on producing consumer products for the global marketplace. Specifically, consider the following:

1. Does this product provide a solution to a problem?

2. Would this item be unique to the marketplace?

3. Are there competing products in the market?

4. Can this product be easily and affordably manufactured or produced?

5. Are there other considerations that make this product viable or not viable for patent protection and marketability?

After answering these questions for this product declare whether or not you would pursue a patent for this product and why or why not? Describe your decision-making process and relevant factors that guided your decision taking into consideration the readings form this week and last week. In your two responses to your peers, respond to your peer’s analysis, and discuss what if anything they concluded that was different than what you concluded as well as what was similar. Follow up with your own post regarding the same.

Handbook What Can Be Patented

The first step in securing a patent to protect an invention or creative work is to determine if an item is patentable. This means not only determining if the item is worthy of the time and effort necessary to securing a patent for it but also that the item is sufficiently unique to be able to secure patent protection if requested.

On the discussion board this week you examined a potential product and made a patent determination about it regarding whether or not a patent should be sought for protection for that particular item. After reading though the learning materials presented in this course so far and going though the discussion exercise this week on how to make the decision to pursue a patent or not on a particular produce write a response that is 1,000 to 1,500 words in length that describes the considerations and process that should be used to make the decision about seeking a patent or not on an item. Your job in this assignment is to step into the shoes of a patent engineer manager and consider what advice you would give to a patent engineer that you supervised about how to evaluate products for patent consideration. Additionally, Describe the step by step procedure for obtaining a patent and how to identify patentable inventions. Describe the procedures and actions key parties in the patent claim writing and filing process should take to ensure that the patent will survive challenge and judicial scrutiny in the future.
