While determining who is the inventor(s) of your patent may be simple, in some cases it may not be. Think of an engineering group developing a new invention consisting of a manager, a mechanical R&D engineer, an electrical R&D engineer, a quality engineer, as well as machinist and technicians who help build and develop prototypes. How would you go about determining who the inventor or inventors are? In one to two paragraphs (200-400 words), describe how you determine which person or people would be considered the inventor(s). How would you determine if a manager who oversaw the project but had limited involvement in the actual design would be considered an inventor or not? Who would most likely own the patent?
