    Introduction

    Idong focuses on preparing and prosecuting patent applications in the areas of electrical and mechanical engineering.

    Practice Areas

    Intellectual Property

    My focus

    I have experience drafting and prosecuting patent applications across a wide variety of technologies. Leveraging my engineering background, I am well versed in the areas of computer architecture and networks, digital and analog circuit design, software, microfabrication equipment, micromechanical systems (MEMS) sensors, signal processing, machine learning and telecommunications.

    Looking ahead

    We are quickly approaching a limit in society where a trained artificial intelligence will be the default solution to complex problems across various disciplines. Therefore, patent practitioners will have to be familiar with different machine learning approaches to better distinguish and protect their clients’ intellectual property.
