patent
There are not that many books written that clearly lay out the world of patents for non legal people. Mostly these are written by patent attorneys or other patent professionals. The book "Patent it Yourself" is the worlds best selling book on patents. It is a well-written book however it has a certain slant. It focuses on how to write up your own patent. "Understanding Patents" is written from the perspective of a development consultant. I have been developing new products for over 20 years

patent, copyrights, trademarks definedHow Patents Differ from Copyrights and Trademarks While it is possible to invent definitions that draw clear lines between the three major types of intellectual property protection (patent, copyright and trademark), there are complications when it comes to certain innovative and artistic designs.

SCIENCE

NANOTECHwhere science will take us.

Time-Domain is the new direction for all communications. This company has developed technology, in the form of a chip and card which allow for the all digital transmission of both Video and Audio signals. This single invention will give the world unlimited radio and televison transmission bands. This signal is very low power with one-watt of power able to transmit coast to coast. The signal is also completely private, meaning no one can intercept or listen into it. The transmitter and recievers are matched digitaly for a one to one transmission and reception.

For video, this technology will allow a cameraman to carry a lightweight transmitter / reciever which will allow two-way reception of the video and audio when shooting multicamera events. Means no more cables between the control room and the camera-operator. For the average person it should create a digital communication, which is almost free, digital phones which can carry video and audio incredable distances, with low power, you will just have to know the exact encodeing of anothers reciever.

The tremendous expense for both the individual and the industry has slowed, delayed the rollout of this media format. You should keep abreast of the technology, because it will common one day soon.
