IP creation has been Industries latest goal setting for its employees. Somehow it enables employers to have their won subjective notions justified during performance appraisals. But leave those loopholes, IP creation has always helped in bringing out and enforcing best practices and technologies in Industry.

Last few months have seen me going through many patent search engine sites like US Patent Office (www.uspto.gov) and European Patent Office (http://ep.espacenet.com) and Google New Patent Search (www.google.com/patents) .All these sites are exhaustive databases and after few trails you can extract relevant information. But one thing that always stuck me while searching is what if we devise (or may be already functional) an Intelligent Search Result Filter System for snatching ;) new patents/ideas. For example if user( say John) has come with a new idea and is doing patent search, most probably if his idea is new and different , search engines will not yield relevant results. Moreover number of search results will be also less. Note that we can easily ignore outlier samples that may also yield  small number of relevant search results( due to invalid strings/ complex combination).If we can integrate all known Patent search results and keep our mechanism( may be a neural network with adaptive learning algorithm), we can trace back if someone has come with a new idea or not. If our system says that it is new Idea we can very well patent that idea before the originatorJ.Simple RightJ.

So what say , shall we patent this idea? ;)
