Prior Art

Prior art refers to any evidence that an invention has been publicly available before a patent application is filed. This can include existing patents, published research papers, articles, products, or any public disclosure that demonstrates the invention is not entirely new. Prior art is crucial in determining whether an invention meets the requirements for patentability, such as novelty and non-obviousness. Without a thorough assessment of prior art, pursuing a patent could result in wasted time, effort, and resources if the invention is later found to lack originality.
