This week on IPWatchdog Unleashed we speak with Arthur Daemmrich, who is the Director of the Consortium of Science, Policy and Outcomes at Arizona State University. Arthur is a historian who was previously director of the Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation at the Smithsonian Institution. We speak with Arthur this week about the role patents have played in innovation, dating back to the Industrial Revolution. We also discuss the invention of the video game by Ralph Baer, Samuel Colt and his mass produced six-shooter known as the gun that won the West, Henry Ford and the assembly line, how and why Elon Musk succeeded with Tesla, and much more.
