Invention, Intellectual Property, and Income
For this week they ask us to meet certain evaluation criteria such as:
- Develop a plan for dissemination of your final project.
- Prepare drafts of your summary slide (presentation.png, 1920x1080) and video clip (presentation.mp4, 1080p HTML5, < ~minute, < ~10 MB) and put them in your website's root directory.
- Formulate future opportunities.
- Future possibilities were outlined and how to convert them into probabilities was described.
- I prepared a draft summary slide and video.
Invention
HydroPillco Dissemination Plan and Future Opportunities The HydroPillco project combines a wide variety of processes that not only strengthen its functionality and uniqueness, but have also allowed me to develop and consolidate my capabilities and knowledge. Additionally, it demonstrates how the integration of multiple processes can add significant value to any project.
To increase the visibility of HydroPillco, attract collaborators, investors and users, and share the knowledge acquired, several dissemination channels will be used. These include academic publications in relevant journals and conferences, as well as the use of digital media such as social networks (LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram), a personal blog or website to detail the development of the project, and participation in forums and communities. . online like Reddit and LinkedIn groups. In addition, the project will be presented at technological conferences and seminars and workshops will be organized to demonstrate how the project works and share knowledge. Dissemination materials such as explanatory videos on YouTube and visually attractive infographics and presentations will also be created.
The communication strategy will focus on transmitting HydroPillco's value and innovation through clear and concise messages. A constant presence will be maintained on the selected channels through a publication calendar and interaction with the audience will be encouraged by responding to questions and comments.
Regarding future opportunities and development of HydroPillco, it is planned to improve 2D and 3D design and electronic production efficiency, as well as integrate new emerging technologies to improve system functionality. We will also seek to expand the functionalities by adding more sensors or control devices and AI algorithms will be integrated to optimize the control and response of the system. To scale the project, a strategy for mass production will be developed and the project will be adapted for commercialization in international markets.
Strategic alliances will be formed with technology companies, universities and research centers, and funding and subsidy opportunities will be sought to support the continued development of the project. In addition, sustainable practices will be implemented in the production and operation of the project and how the project can benefit communities and contribute to solving social problems will be evaluated.
This outreach and development plan is designed to effectively share work and explore future opportunities for HydroPillco, ensuring it becomes a single, integrated system that provides safe, filtered water for domestic consumption.
Business model
My final project is still in the first phase, and I know that this version can be significantly improved. For this reason, it is not yet ready to be launched with a complete business model. However, in the next version, and with all the feedback received, you will be ready for more formal business considerations.
This project is designed to be accessible to everyone, regardless of their socioeconomic level (A, B, C) or technical knowledge. It is easy to use and does not require extensive technical experience to operate. Version 2 will be more comprehensive, with better sensors and advanced functionalities. This update will be available soon as I am currently working on improving the human-machine interface for an optimal user experience.
Intellectual Property and Patent for HydroPillco
In terms of intellectual property, obtaining a patent for HydroPillco would be essential to protect the innovation and unique technology I have developed. A patent would give me exclusive rights to the invention, allowing me to control who can use, manufacture, sell or import the product without my permission.
With a patent, I can protect my investment in research and development by preventing others from copying or reproducing my technology without permission. Additionally, it would increase HydroPillco's business value by demonstrating that it has patented technology, which may be attractive to potential investors and partners. It would also give me a competitive advantage by being the only supplier of a specific technology, opening up opportunities in new markets.
In addition to protecting my intellectual property, a patent would facilitate negotiations and licensing agreements with other companies interested in using my technology under agreed terms. It would also provide a solid basis for defending my intellectual property in the event of infringement, allowing me to take legal action against those who use my technology without authorization.

Presentation of the final project
In summary
In short, obtaining a patent for HydroPillco would not only protect my investment and intellectual property, but could also be key to maximizing its commercial value and securing its market position.
