There has to be some sortof identifiable embodiment of the idea.
US patentlawsDO NOT REQUIRE YOU TO HAVE A PROTOTYPEIN ORDER TO APPLY. ALL THAT IS
REQUIRED IS THAT YOU DESCRIBE THE IDEA SO THAT OTHERS CAN MAKE IT AND USE IT. Thisis

conception is the formation, in the mind of the inventor, of a definite and
