Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for providing an intellectual property collaboration network for the development and improvement of inventions and technology with inventors being granted equity or an ownership interest in patent arrays or companies which patent, market, license and generate revenue from the developed technology. The present invention provides a unique way of distributing equity to contributing inventors of ideas and owners of patents within the network for those technologies which are grouped and related. The system of the present invention enables inventors to submit ideas, collaborate on projects, advance technology and protect inventions through an intellectual property network which provides inventors equity in companies or patent arrays in exchange for the developments which are then patented, marketed, and licensed with revenue flowing through the companies and patent arrays back to the inventors and other contributors of the system.

Abstract: An improved home automation system that permits the user of the system to remotely control the operation of various devices including garage doors and powered entry gates. The system is packaged in a manner that “walks” the user through the initialization process to thereby reduce or eliminate errors associated with the initialization and set-up of the system. Furthermore, the configuration permits the user to initialize the system without the use of tools, such as screwdrivers. The system is configured with improved functionality that permits the user to readily control individual devices and/or selected groups of devices with a powerful hand-held universal remote transmitter.
