Dissemination Plan

WHO IS YOUR PROJECT FOR?

  • The project is not considered commercializable. My aim is to use it for educational purposes for myself to build upon in our fablab as a project that reflects that you can “build almost anything in our fablab” and for myself to learn new technical skills

HOW IS IT FUNDED?

  • The total cost of materials and supplies needed to make the Automated Bag value mask was financed by my institution (NIHERST) under grant funding under the Ninth European Development Fund. The “Bill of materials”

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTIES PROTECTION OF PROJECT?

  • First off, I probably don’t have anything here worth applying a trademark or patent. The concept is in the public domain and that is where I got my idea to build. In relation to copyright for 3D parts, circuits and programming I have no issue against anyone using them. It was an amazing project to attempt. I am also an employee and the costs for participation in the program were covered by my statutory body (NIHERST) budget, it may be possible the intellectual property rights will belong to them if any but as I said before I don’t see anything worth .

IS THERE A BUSINESS PLAN?

  • Business plan - no, but evaluation and access to grants for continue works at the Fablab
