Requirements For Patent Protection
The conditions for patent protection are set by the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). In order to qualify for patent protection, an invention must be new, inventive, and valuable. It must also have been disclosed to the public by the creator. When the invention satisfies these criteria, the inventor can move forward and submit a patent application to have his or her idea protected. The right to produce or sell the invention for a specified period of time is granted to the inventor after obtaining the patent. In addition, the inventor has the option of accusing the infringers of infringement.
