Let's say i have an idea to speed up dramatically 3d rendering.
Even if I a noob at coding I managed to make a crappy opengl prototype that goes 30% faster with my implementation (but doesn't always work)
I need more experience in c++ and opengl to do a proper benchmark, i am pretty sure it can be improved further, expecially with 4k resolution it could go 150% faster, should I take a computer science degree and retry 3 years later?
I want to make clear that this method makes the rendering less accurate, but the human eye can't see the difference.
I don't think is possible to patent an idea, what can i do? Can I sell an idea? I will not open source or tell my idea it unless i can profit from it. Sorry.

No one wants something that only sometimes works.

>>53683039
You've got jack shit.
>>
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. Good one, OP. Go kill yourself.
>>
>>53683039
You have nothing. The only way you'll ever turn your half baked idea into a reality at this point is to open source it and get people who know what they're doing to give it some momentum.
>>
>>53683039
it's possible to patent an idea, retard, algorithms are patented all the tiem

Worthless faggot NEET's on suicide watch!!!!

I'm going to be fucking rich, while you're all still on /g/ posting anime desktops and jacking off to cartoons

LMAO!

Get the FUCK out of my thread if you have nothing useful to contribute. :)

as i said, my prototype is shit because i can't really code
can i patent a method of rendering without actual code?

for example: first render to a framebuffer 1, then apply a filter to framebuffer, then render to framebuffer 2, then do this

?????
how would that work, everyone could steal my method and implement it in his code, how would a patent for that work, i can't profit from this
>>
>>53683268
A patent is only as useful if it has a team of lawyers backing it up
>>
>>53683262
>>53683268
You realize you're telling people you're shit at coding, which I don't doubt for a second you are, and then saying that something you thought of that will make renders look like shit but reduce the time it takes to render it (What the FUCK, this already happens, why do you think this is a new thing?) will make you rich?

Go back to making calculators in JavaScript, faggot.
>>
>>53683377
you replied to fake op fagus
can you even read my post?
>I want to make clear that this method makes the rendering less accurate, but the human eye can't see the difference
>the human eye can't see the difference
we are talking about a speed up that would require making the rendering shit, but with my method the difference is imperceptible
>>
>>53683268
>first render to a framebuffer 1
Congratulations, your performance is currently as shit as every normal method of rendering.
>then apply a filter to framebuffer
Congratulations, your shit method is now slower than normal methods.
>>
>>53683443
Maybe YOUR human eye can't see the difference, but I guarantee you I definitely can. Unless you're rendering a cube or something.
>>
>>53683456
except you are wrong...
i have tested my method and it's simply faster than the default rendering options
my method is superior and this goes without contest... but how can i patent this idea without releasing it for others to copy?
if you don't understand what i'm trying to do... then fuck off....

Use your fucking brain for 1 fucking second please. Read over it and use your fucking brain when you do.
>>
>>53683456
Congratulations, you don't understand what an example is
Do you think I was gonna reveal my holy method?
>>53683475
Can you see the difference betwen an .avi and a mp4 max quality?

>>53683482
>>53683510
Can you fuck off please? I AM THE REAL OP POSTER NOT THIS GUY
>>
>>53683510
you don't understand, my method reaches framebuffer 1 much faster than any other method
the filter is just a second step... the whole process is entirely faster
now that you have outed yourself as a shitposter, please fuck off you idiot
>>
I've put a trip code on because of the shitposters.

Don't know why you all want to argue what I've done, i've tested it and it works
Instead of arguing something irrelevant, can you just answer the main question?
How can I patent my creation without revealing it?
>>
>>53683524
Are you seriously asking me this? Yes. Absolutely. I've worked with encoding software for years. Are you sure you're not just fucking blind or something? Anyone should be able to see the difference.
>>
>>53683079
You fucking neets are just jealous I found a way that will technically revolutionize the industry while I am still in high school. I just need help filling a patent or copyright on my supersekret methods
>>
>>53683581
Yes i am serious.
I'm 100% certain that my rendering technique is superior, you can compare it to the argument of
>can you hear the difference between mp3 320kbps and flac?

My method in this analogy is the 320 and everything else flac, it's very fast
You're the fucking blind idiot if you can't understand something so simple
>>
>>53683578
THIS IS NOT OP I HAVE NO TRIP
fuck this board I hate /g you guys are idiots. Screenshot this because you will remember me in the future

Go away. Just go away. You know nothing about anything.

God fucking DAMN you're stupid.

OP here
When I'm not busy applying filters to framebuffers, I suck some mean dick!
>>
>>53683752
Ha!
>>
>>53683581
So you claim that youbcan see the difference between an AVI and a MP4 file?
Lol... They are container formats, not codecs.
>>
>>53683711
Jesus I try to have a decent thread about a new idea, and it turns to cancer before my eyes. Im out of here, have fun discussing your waifus and Vr porn
>>
OP, you sound a little unstable and this is really something you should ask your parents about. Also if you're serious about the idea and are 100% certain of its success, then you won't have a problem spending a couple of grands for a patent lawyer. He'll be in a much better position to answer your questions.
>>
CS degree will teach you some theory and basic C++, I've only ever had two openGL related classes though and both were technically electives.
>>
>>53683971

I think i'll just do this, /g is useless when it comes to anything outside of ricer and consumer shit
Thanks for nothing you fucking neckbeards
>>
>>53684083
Listen here you little shit...
You did not present any evidence about your works. You have no idea how to code properly. All you've done is come here seeking legal and financial advice.

I've seen dipshits like you dig out grants and from unsuspecting companies and local governments, all based on "hurr durr I've got this revolutionary tech right here durr".
>>
>>53683578
Whole point of patents is to get people to disclose their methods for a reward of protection for a given period of time.

You can't get a patent without disclosing specifically what you are doing and how.
>>
>>53684208
my method works na na ni na narrrr im rich ur poor
im rich ur poor
im rich
ur poor

im a millionare probably a billionaire and ur gonna be using my rendering technique whethere you like it or not since its the fucking best

*shows butt*
*spreads cheeks*
*poops on your lap*
*sits on your lap*
*rub ass into you and spread shit everywhere*
*piss starts shooting out of my cock*
*turn around*
*piss on ya face*

stay jelly u fatso XD

>>53684319
Wow that was fast. Good job.
>>
>>53683039
serious questions OP
does your software implementation perform better than an hardware accelerated one? (triangle fillrates)
does your software implementation cull back-faces and/or takes into account z-ordering when rendering?
if both of these simple questions can be answered with no then don't spend much "time" on it.
you can always try to implement it better so it at least works properly and maybe you might learn something

>tfw back in the day decided to program from scratch a 3d physic engine that was "accelerated" via the FPU (inline assembler) right from the get-go and it performed worse than if i just let the compiler do its float2int magic tricks. this was some time after the sse2 being implemented or something. fucking fpus are slow as shit and now i know it (simd is better)
>thx for reading my blog
>>
>>53683039
you could maybe sell an implementation and make dosh from licensing it out, but that's not gonna go anywhere if your implementation is shit

That's it, really. No one will bother with the method if you can't provide a demonstration of it being better to others.
>>

>>53684387
Oh my god. Just STOP. This kid has no fucking clue and you're asking him serious questions. What is wrong with you?
>>
>>53683039
>I don't think is possible to patent an idea
That's literally the only thing you can patent
>>
>>53684450
so what? that took a minute to write... if he cant answer those _very simple_ questions then maybe he should research the topic better (state-of-the-art) before claiming "i found a better way".

he is right on one thing though, /g/ is shit, this board has less to do with tech than, say, /diy/. dont you ppl have /mlp/ and /pol/ to attend instead of coming here? fuck even re-ddit would fit most of u...
