We are back today with a new patent essay, on a technology everyone is familiar with. You can read all about the Separable Fastening Device!

This invention, Wireless Network Assisted GPS System, is part of our series of inventions native to Newark, New Jersey. We are also counting it toward our new emphasis on women inventors with Sirin Tekinay on the team.

There’s a new patent essay now available, on a System and Method for Previewing Calls in Communications Systems.

This is another invention to come out of Newark, NJ and is also part of a new theme we want to call attention to: women inventors. One of the patent inventors was Dr. Sukeshini A. Grandhi, from when she was a PhD student at NJIT. We’ll be working to highlight other patents from women inventors in the future.
