Filing for a patent includes a stringent process in which the inventor would have to provide a detailed description of their idea. This description must explain why the idea is original and innovative – chronicling all the necessary facets of the invention that make it so. This process is called patent drafting.
– a description and a claim or claims; – drawings, when necessary; – an oath or declaration; and – prescribed filing, search, and examination fees. The title should be as specific as possible in describing the invention.
