I am a patent attorney, inventor, and entrepeneur. This gives me a valuable perspective regarding how to start a business and intellectual property! I have been developing a robotic fish since 2009, what I call my "fishBOAT" project. Fish are more efficient than propellers, but parts are bad! Traditional robotic fish are NOT efficient, because they have too many parts. This video tells how I learned of this problem, why and how I used a human-powered research craft to come up with an answer, and shows some of my prototypes. In a future video, I'll discuss markets for robotic fish. My day job is as a patent attorney at AEON Law, so the fishBOAT is patented and patent pending around the world. I have an "up close" perspective on technology development, purchasing patent services around the world, and fundraising for startups. Please feel free to contact me with questions about the fishBOAT project, startups, or intellectual property.
