I assume they will file a patent on the image space materials in the near future.The patents and some more development of C-Space will make it more valuable in the case of an acquisition.Victor interestingly mentioned that a potential partner could acquire the technology or the company itself, NOT a partner, which says while in talks with someone about a partnership, a company may let us know they would rather just own the C-Space outright.Proto #3 should be completed soon and then we start on Product Platform #1 from which a family of products will be created for specific areas.Since we are soon to be at the product developement stage( Product Platform #1) in which C-Space is created for others to use for whatever field they are in i believe we will be pursued immediately by others for an acqusition or merger... There is too much money that can be made with C-Space for anyone to let it slip out of thier hands and have some other company grab up C-Space before they do...Remember C-Space is the only solution to problem out there and there are no other choices for anyone to choose from for this type of 3D imaging.Patents are a BIG KEY in creating value and value is something we want if we are to be acquired by someone...Pototype #3 completed and Patented i believe me has GREAT VALUE at that point.Victor will know when we have the greatest value though and he knows were in the drivers seat as well and i have complete confidence in his ability to make the best decision that can be made.
