Call for Patents
As INCITS subscribes to the ANSI Patent Policy, a call for patents and pertinent
issues is issued throughout the development of a project to determine
if a proposed standard may require the use of a patented invention.
INCITS also encourages disclosure, where possible, of the existence of pending
U.S. patent applications relating to the standard under development, and
of any relevant unexpired foreign patents.
If such notice is received, INCITS seeks a statement that the patent
holder will comply with the ANSI Patent Policy.
Please send the completed patent delcaration form to:
INCITS Secretariat
