The Process: Scan QR code → input three words → receive technical drawing, 3D model, and printed patent.

# The Patent Machine

**Enter three words. Get an instant patent.** The Patent Machine is an interactive installation that humorously explores AI-generated intellectual property — turning random word combinations into “official” inventions.

## How It Works

1.  **Scan QR code** on your phone
2.  **Enter three words** (any words!)
3.  **AI generates** technical drawings and 3D models
4.  **Take home** a printed patent of your “invention”
5.  **View in AR/VR** for immersive exploration

## The Experience

The installation questions our relationship with AI creativity and intellectual property. What happens when machines can “invent” faster than humans? The Patent Machine makes this abstract concept tangible and playful.

**Technical Stack:** AI text-to-image generation, 3D modeling pipeline, Unity AR/VR integration, real-time printing system.

### Mixed Reality Patent Interaction

Interact with AI-generated patents in 3D using Unity and MetaQuest 3 — step inside your inventions.

### Augmented Reality Patent Viewing

View your AI-generated patents in AR directly on your phone — bringing digital inventions into physical space.

The result is both entertaining and thought-provoking: visitors leave with a “patent” for something that never existed, created by an AI that doesn’t understand invention, yet feels surprisingly legitimate.
