Summary of the Inventive Concept

A novel, adaptable biologic shielding technology for protecting various entities from diverse threats, leveraging the core technology of the original patent in new applications and use cases.

Background and Problem Solved

The original patent addressed the need for protecting the recurrent laryngeal nerve during neck surgeries. However, this inventive concept recognizes the broader potential of biologic shielding technology in safeguarding entities across multiple industries, including marine wildlife, forestry, agriculture, construction, and water treatment. The new claims overcome the limitations of the original patent by expanding the scope of protection to these new areas.

Detailed Description of the Inventive Concept

The biologic shielding technology involves the use of biologic tissue, which may be flexible, dissolvable, or absorbable, to create a protective barrier around the entity to be shielded. The shield is shaped to correspond to the shape and structure of the entity, ensuring a snug fit and effective protection. In the context of marine wildlife, the shield protects species from underwater threats. In forestry, the shield safeguards trees from forest fires. In agriculture, the shield shields crops from pests and diseases. In construction, the shield protects buildings from environmental damage. In water treatment, the shield shields components from contamination. The biologic tissue may be derived from natural or man-made sources, offering versatility and adaptability.

Novelty and Inventive Step

The novelty of this inventive concept lies in its application of biologic shielding technology to diverse industries, overcoming the limitations of the original patent. The inventive step is the recognition of the broader potential of biologic shielding and its adaptation to new use cases, which was not obvious from the original patent.

Alternative Embodiments and Variations

Alternative embodiments of the biologic shielding technology could include the use of different types of biologic tissue, varying the thickness and flexibility of the shield, or incorporating additional features such as sensors or monitoring systems. Variations could also include the development of customized shields for specific industries or applications.

Potential Commercial Applications and Market

The biologic shielding technology has significant commercial potential across multiple industries, including marine conservation, forestry, agriculture, construction, and water treatment. The market for this technology is vast, with potential applications in protecting endangered species, preventing forest fires, reducing crop losses, shielding buildings from natural disasters, and ensuring water quality.
