Welcome to my week 18

Invention, Intellectual Property, And Income.


"The Intellectual Property Rights or just IPRs is the legal form that give rights and protects them for the content creator as well as the end users. It defines what can be done and what cannot be. Some of these are internationally valid and each country has their on set of laws too. I will be considering here about the rights on the Software and designs I have written and created during the time of Fab academy." Well explained This week is more relevant for people who wants to either get into R & D or commercialise their idea or product. But awareness of such processes is also essential because everyone atleast once in lifetime makes something worth selling. It can be anything which has not been done commercially before. There are many stories making this topic relevant. I would be writing more about Open licenses because I am educator and know how important it is.

Open License

My project consists of lot of reading different resources, utilising projects codes from open source websites, therefore my Project will be an open source which can be utlised for further research. So I would like to keep my Final project open for other to learn and develop with the condition that i would like them to share as an open source too.
There are licenses which are standard, these licences are free to use , you can read THIS for more info.

Creative commons.



Creative Commons is commonly used for design projects. Different types of CC licenses are available, each granting certain rights. A CC license has four basic parts, which can be used individually or in combination. The parts are:

1.Attribution: The author must be attributed as the creator of the work. Beyond that, the work can be modified, distributed, copied and otherwise used. 2.Share Alike: The work can be modified, distributed and so forth, but only under the same CC license. 3.Non-Commercial: The work can be modified, distributed and so on, but not for commercial purposes. The language about what constitutes "commercial" is a bit vague (no express definition is provided), so you may want to clarify this in your own projects. For example, some might interpret "non-commercial" as simply meaning that you can't sell the work. Others might take it to mean that you can't even put the work on a website that has advertising. Still others might consider something is "commercial" only if it makes a profit. No Derivative Works: This means you can copy and distribute the licensed work, but you can't modify it in any way or create work based on the original.





MIT.

It's one of the shortest and most liberal. Its terms are very loose and more permissive than most other licenses.

It essentially says that anyone can use and modify the software however they like, as long as they put my name somewhere, and as long as they understand I make no promises regarding the software's quality.

You can use, copy and modify the software however you want. No one can prevent you from using it on any project, from copying it however many times you want and in whatever format you like, or from changing it however you want.

You can give the software away for free or sell it. You have no restrictions on how to distribute it.

The only restriction is that it be accompanied by the license agreement.

Dissemination Plan.

My SELF BALANCING ELECTRIC SKETEBOARD Project can use everyone, villages and cities, where people face the problems.

Therefore, This Prototype can be further developed to a full fledge system. This project will be helpful in dealing:

  • SELF BALANCING ELECTRIC SKETEBOARD sharing details of location available
  • Smart Tool holder sensing the Tools
  • User record system
  • Theft Alarm

  • Business Model:

    My Project is an open source for anyone to use , share , develop and again keep it open source. I will be using my project for myself, to implement more. Its a service as well as a product for people.

    Currently, I have no plans of commercialising my work. I hope putting this work in public domain would help it to evolve into a better one. I hope this project would help people to build their own low cost ELECTRIC SKETEBOARD system. However, after developing it further, i might commercialise this system.

    Customers would be anyone..
