    Invention Prototype and Apps
    I have done drawings and figured the best solid design for an item and need a protoype made. The electronics, propulsion are nothing new and need to be incorporated into the schematic and physical prototype. Is there a place that can make it without stealing the idea? Or do I have different companies make parts of it and assemble it myself?
    There are a few apps I would like to make; one is complicated and needs a lot of support and what I call "real" verses some of these other useless apps for the serious people. Is there a system that allows non computer/code geeks to make? At least as a non working model with a picture of what the screen would look like? This would be for presentation only. The other apps would be functional and of great help. Oddly these apps are not out there or are extremely bad.

    Have you already got a patient for your idea. Have you searched to see if your idea and product may already have a patient ? Just because it is not commercial available does not mean there is not a product or patient for it already.

    Example, as seen on TV shows, a pair of glasses where you see the computer screen "in the air" and touch the virtual screen to interact with the computer. There were protypes of this 8 or more years ago at a major college I worked out, the patient was made some years before. But the product is not out there yet.

    What you need are investors for what your wanting to do. How large of a prototype are you wanting to make? Most start with scale models then move to the proving stages once they have demonstrated that their idea can come to fruition.
