Intro: Reduction to Practice – Do Patent Applications Require Prototypes?
Slide 1: You do not need a prototype to get a patent for your invention. However, you must be able to reduce it to practice.
Slide 2: Reduction to practice is reducing the invention into a tangible form or taking the invention from thoughts and making it so that it can be used.
Slide 3: There are two types of reduction to practice:
Slide 4: 1. Actual reduction refers to an inventors creation of an actual, practical, real-world rendition of the patentable invention into a working prototype, physical form, or process.
Slide 5: 2. Constructive reduction refers to the description of an invention or idea involved with the writing of a patent application.
