A prototype is a first full-scale and usually functional form of a new type or design of a construction. You do not a prototype to file a patent application, but you will need a prototype to determine if your invention works properly and most businesses or investors will want to see a working prototype before licensing or investing in your invention.

Depending upon the complexity of the prototype, it can take Electronic Prototyper Guy Marsden as little as 1-2 days or as long as 1-2 weeks to complete the prototype. The average prototype Guy creates averages $1,000 to $2,000, although some cost as little as $100-$200 and some cost as much as $10,000.

If you would like to know “At what point in the inventing process should an inventor make a prototype?” or “If I hire someone to make my prototype and the prototyper suggests improvements, are the improvements mine?” then listen as Intellectual Property Attorney Steven Leavitt, Host Jillian Freed and guest prototyper Guy Marsden answer these questions and more.

Steve’s first weird patent involves a method for attracting insects. The premise is to wear an insect attracting apparatus that draws the insect to the apparatus instead of the individual wearing the apparatus. Steve’s second weird patent is for a bag/backpack that can be attached to the body and towed.
