Week 18 Assignment

Invention, Intellectual Property And Income




Tasks

  1. Develop a plan for dissemination of your final project











Invention

As a summary, my project consists of three parts:

1.Design
2.Hardware
3.Programming

The programming of the project was aided by open source code. The project and all its files will be available on several websites including my Fab Academy website, my personal website,my personal accounts in Dropbox and Github. The project files will be open source, available to the public to download, and further develop.

Intellectual Property


For this part of the assignment, to me, it seemed obvious to choose MIT license, so the project will gain an Open Source Hardware and Software Licensed under MIT License.

I chose this license because it permits the user to use, copy, modify, merge, publish distribute, sublicensee, and/or sell copies of the project easily and clearly. The user requirements can be found "here" .

Exploring a second licence


I have to explore another one so I looked at common creative license because at the lab, it used often and it always seemed very well designed and very well known too.

But I wont use it because I want my project to be an open sorce for the user to use, copy and modify the project.

Income

I believe that sharing the documents of my project will be a great chance for me to be more indulged with the makers scene, and hopefully will open more doors for me in the digital fabrication industry on a professional level. However, I would like to develop and optimize the project further, to make it even better in motion such like adding second motor, and assemble, and economize with the material even more. This way I would have a more robust and sellable product with an edge, which is affordable to all layers of the society, rich or poor.

As discussed before, my plan is to continue developing the kinetic sculpture after the course ends, because I want to open a company with the kinetic art as no one until now do this idea in my contry.
