Is It Necessary to Have a Prototype or Are the Designs Enough? and How Specific Do the Designs Need to Be?
While a prototype can be helpful in supporting your patent application, a working prototype is not required to apply for patent protection. However, you are required to describe your invention with a level of detail such that a skilled individual could recreate your invention from the specifications. Essentially, you will need to provide as much detail as possible.
