Many widespread modern conveniences, such as the telephone and light bulb, come from the labs of individual or start-up inventors. More recently, life-changing products like the AbioCor artificial heart and i-Limb bionic hand have similar origins. Although it’s much easier now to build and deliver these great ideas to the world since the days of Bell and Edison, those ideas must still be filed and protected if they’re to get off the ground.
