Hi Alex,
I have to check my mails twice...and I advice seriously Mr Sokolovski to
take this balk form his lenses immediatelly;-)
But Alex: Again smart of you. Congratulations.
I have been studying *fisheye patent package* and think that it is much more
fish than the eye business;-)
Almost all was right in this billion dollars 360VR project few years ago:
They made big PR, got the biggest computer companies as investors and
introduced an aggressive patent coverage policy. This policy consisted most
of internet penetration of all ideas and unpatented inventions in the field,
in order to submit own patents to USTPO. Initially they where in supervision
cameras business and had some patents using fisheye in this cameras.
The two mistakes they did were:
1. Over validation of building own patent portfolio comparing to very
limited own technical development investment.
2. Forgetting for the while the guy who explained to them the 360VR as such.
They only informed him that they shift to this business but they thank him
very much for any co-operation. Me, and thanks for God US as well, can not
stand such a kind of intellectual propriety fraud.
The result was that first class computer companies withdrew their support
for the company and the company took adopted much moderate profile with more
equipment and less own software as such.
My advice to you is to hear the story of and co-operate with Ford Oxaal and
www.pictosphere.com if you want really earn the money in this business.
I hope it helps
Jacek
