Invention, intellectual property and business models
Develop a plan for dissemination of your final project
The lisence i want on my project is the Fab License.
I was choosing betwen the Creative Commons NonComercial and the Fab, but since my project its not a final version i belive that the fab is more apropried.
The creative commons NonCommercial says : "You let others copy, distribute, display, perform, and (unless you have chosen NoDerivatives) modify and use your work for any purpose other than commercially unless they get your permission first", The Fab licence says :"This work may be reproduced, modified, distributed, performed, and displayed for any purpose, but must acknowledge "project name". Copyright is retained and must be preserved. The work is provided as is; no warranty is provided, and users accept all liability."

The project will be covered with a Fab Lab licence under the name A.P.F.. The income for this project will come from selling A.P.F. kits as well as the workshops to create A.P.F. at the Fab Lab. A.P.F. is a Open Source electronic and mechanical project design designed and developed by Paulo Sergio Ayub Filho during Fab Academy 2017 Classes, at FabLab Facens, Sorocaba-SP, Brasil. It is conceived as a electronic and mechanical product that will allow the user to fed any pet while the user it's not at home. The project can be scalable to make bigger or smaler versions. Since the A.P.F. is completly available on the Fab Academy website the need for intellectual property or copyright is not at the moment existent.
The motivational for this project is to give confort and safety to both pet and pet owners.
Lifecycle will be thru kickstarter campaing and thru workshops in FabLab Facens.
