Summary

Looking for a USPTO-Registered Patent Agent to perform a focused gap analysis and audit of a self-filed Provisional Patent Application (PPA) for a desk-based consumer hardware device. The specification and technical drawings are already complete. We need a targeted review to evaluate: 35 U.S.C. §112 Enablement & Written Description: Ensuring the specification sufficiently enables a person skilled in the art to construct the physical hardware and execute the embedded logic. Logic & Sensor Coverage: Confirming state-machine transitions, sensor feedback loops, and hardware-software interaction are fully protected without missing critical edge cases. Non-Provisional Readiness: Identifying potential broad claims and coverage gaps prior to prototype manufacturing and public disclosure. Deliverable: A markup/redline of the draft or a brief written feedback summary highlighting critical gaps, enablement risks, or recommended phrasing enhancements. Requirements: Must be a registered practitioner with an active USPTO Registration Number (please include this in your proposal). Demonstrated experience with hardware electronics, embedded systems, microcontrollers, or physical computing patents. Based in the United States.
