Ask any patent question in plain language
A chat for patent work. Ask any patent question in natural language, and work through the answer.

How a chat goes
Ask, then ask the next question
A patent question rarely ends with one answer. Attach the documents it turns on, ask in plain language or aloud, and follow up from what Nova tells you.
Nova
Claim 1 is the broadest of its three independent claims. Claims 12 and 20 each carry limits it doesn’t.
Sensing device that drives an actuator from its readings
A controller reads each sensor in a housing, drives an actuator in response and stores the readings.

| Claim 20 | 37 Narrow |
Nova
Likely. It drives the actuator from the readings, a concrete result rather than an abstract idea col. 6, ll. 3–9. Claim 12 is the weak one: past the readings it only stores them, and collecting and storing data is often found abstract on its own.
