Q :
How can an idea make an invention and I also want to know the progress of an invention from idea?
Jackson :
The above 2 questions is exactly similar, I can give you a progress as below.
At first, please evaluate your idea, Is it having market value. If have, this will give you encourage, organize your idea to find the possible. Search for material you may use, Is the material suitable for your invention structure. Begin to make the prototype, retest to find the best and improve the way to make it, to achieve easy, saving material, durable effect. Invention as our life, it should have target, if no target at all, it worth nothing.
Q :
How to make prototype? How to learn? Who can make the prototype and their cost?
Jackson :
In market, there are company help to produce prototype, but need to take care, this need to find reliable one, if not, one would stole your idea. The price of making prototype from 2000 to several thousand, it depend on the structure. About learning, you can study in different subject. All Best wishes for you.
Web master remark :
Tommy email me he feel the answer of Mr Jackson CHAN is not detail enough in telling him where he can learn to make prototype , want me to tell him more? And also to someone who email me they have idea , but they do not know the technology?
A prototype may need to use many different technology to make, so it depend on how many
different kind of technology Tommy's invention needed, so Tommy need to learn in different subject. In Hong Kong, we can learn many technology like electronic , computer, molding for example our friend organization VTC and some educational institute. There are many long and short course, we can choose. No suggestion for those course. But of course, there may be not be any tailor make course or single course can satisfy Tommy needed. To learn may take some time, or Tommy may need to learn different subject.
In fact, an invention from idea, research, improve , re-improve their invention as Jackson told us,
patent, commercelize may take a very long time.
Some one email me ask me they want to check Are their idea already have invention in market ?
