The gas monitoring system comprises a metal strip, a bimetal strip, and a buzzer unit. The metal strip generates heat upon detecting the gas knob is in an ON state, and consequently, the flame is generated from a burner of the gas stove. The bimetal strip connected with the metal strip expands upon detection of the heat generated from the metal strip. The buzzer unit initiates a notification signal on detection of the ON state of the gas knob and non-expansion of the bimetal strip.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invention 2 \u2013 SEMI-AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER<\/strong><br \/>\nPatent Application No.: 201721013714<br \/>\nApplicant: Sahil Salma<br \/>\nAbstract: Semi-Automatic Dishwasher and Method A compact and handy Semi-Automatic Dishwasher washes dishes with mechanical power with a little human effort. The machine is also capable of cleaning any other object such as walls, doors, windows or any other utensil as well regardless of its material. Liquid soap can be used with the machine for better results. The Semi-Automatic Dishwasher is light in weight and can be charged if the power goes down. The simple method of using the device is to select the appropriate brush according to the object that needs to be cleaned and fix the brush on the top lock of the machine. Now the object needs to be in contact with the brush, add some liquid soap and turn the switch on for the brush to start cleaning. See the cleaning and switch it off once the object is cleaned. Rinse the object with water.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Indian Patent Updates<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Zee Entertainment\u2019s new patent is said to tantalize all 5 senses!<\/strong><br \/>\nZee Entertainment Enterprises Ltd. became a proud owner of a patent numbered 10,101,804, titled \u201cContent interaction system and method\u201d, in the USA. The patent protects an idea related to a special visual experience. The new technology is a combination of already existing technological advancements such as Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), 3D Audio, Holograms and touch. Even though Zee seems to be a little skeptical about the acceptance of such a product in the Indian Market, it hopes to at least create an environment for the same. Mr. Chamli Tennakoon, Chief Digital Officer, ZEEL,\u00a0is of the opinion that, &#8220;This technology platform catering to all the 5 senses will create a revolution in next generation content and the way consumers consume content in future. This is our first break through and there are more innovative, futuristic products yet to be revealed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>IP India introduces a new Video Conferencing System.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe CGPDTM has introduced a new system of video conferencing whereby, Patent Agents can attend hearings, discussions and communicate swiftly with the IPO, all through a virtual platform. Users can take advantage of this facility and simply arrange for a video conference instead of having to physically be present. This advanced move by the IPO is expected to result in faster decisions being made by bringing into line, its users and the quasi judicial body. The objective of this system is threefold; firstly, it hastens the judicial process. Secondly, it cuts the time required for passing judgments thereby ensuring undisrupted communication between the two parties. Thirdly, it improves the efficiency and transparency of the Intellectual Property Office. Anyone who wants to use this facility can simply follow the procedure mentioned in the link which will be provided by the IPO to initiate the video conferencing. The virtual meeting will be held at a pre-determined time, users can make use of their laptops or desktops with webcams to attend the conference.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Patent \/Design Infringements, Disputes, Licensing and Settlements<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Nokia and Samsung join hands yet another time by extending their patent licensing agreement <\/strong><br \/>\nOn 25<sup>th<\/sup> October, 2018 Nokia Technologies announced their third quarterly report in which the Finnish company is believed to have made $6.27 billion in net sales.

This Appellate Court will hear appeals related to intellectual property from other special IP courts and intermediary courts. If all goes well, this body will be situated in the heart of Beijing within the SPC. This system will create uniformity in decisions and create a reliable precedent. The change in the Appeal process will also boost protection of IP laws.
