In 1895, George Selden was granted U.S. Patent 549,160 for a gasoline-powered road vehicle \u2014 effectively a patent on the internal combustion engine applied to transportation. He held a single patent. One claim on one engine type for one application. That patent shaped the entire automobile industry for over a decade.<\/p>\n
If the Selden patent had held without challenge, licensing revenue from every automobile manufactured in the United States between 1903 and 1920 would have been worth between $21 billion and $178 billion in 2026 dollars<\/strong>. The inflation factor is significant: $1 in 1908 equals approximately $35.52 in 2026<\/strong>. Selden’s single patent on one mechanical device would have been among the most valuable pieces of intellectual property in history.<\/p>\n The Quantum Electromagnetic IC portfolio contains 3,500+ inventions<\/strong> \u2014 not one patent, but thousands of distinct claims covering:<\/p>\n The QE_IC addresses $425 billion or more in annual markets<\/strong> \u2014 semiconductors, electric motors, battery systems, drone propulsion, medical devices, industrial automation, and quantum computing. Selden had one patent on one market. The QE_IC has 3,500+ inventions across a dozen markets with broader IP protection than any single automotive patent could have provided.<\/p>\n The question is not whether this IP has value. The question is what fraction of $425 billion annually a platform with 3,500+ protected inventions can capture.<\/p>\n Copyright 2017-2026 Christopher Gabriel Brown.
