Patent Registration (IPR)
Copyright, a form of intellectual property law, protects original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, such as poetry, novels, photograph, Painting, a speech, movies, songs, source code of a software program, the binary executable file, Website, Mobile App, and architecture.
What is patentable?
To qualify for a patent, the invention must meet three basic tests.
- First, it must be novel, meaning that the invention did not previously exist.
- Second, the invention must be non-obvious, which means that the invention must be a significant improvement to existing technology. Simple changes to previously known devices do not comprise a patentable invention.
- Finally, the proposed invention must be useful. Legal experts commonly interpret this to mean that no patent will be granted for inventions that can only be used for an illegal or immoral purpose.
