Over hundreds of years, the advancements in technology have changed the face of modern technology. This has helped many companies to be prominent and to the forefront of the minds of consumers. However, many people are unaware that most products bearing a company’s logo and name contain multiple technologies, sometimes hundreds.
Patriot Scientific, a small company based in San Diego, has been helping to develop innovative computer products and technology over the years. Their presence is felt, even though they may not be able to place their brand on every cell phone or other device that has their technology, Patriot Scientific has granted licenses to computer processing giants such HP, Sony, and Intel that have enabled their own products to succeed in the new technology market.
“The average person buying a cutting-edge product like the iPhone doesn’t immediately think, ‘Wow, I’m holding dozens of companies products in my hand right now,'”Jim Turley, president and CEO at Patriot Scientific, said: “But large companies are constantly utilizing patents and technology developed by other corporations and people that give their own product a life and promotes overall growth in the industry.”
Many smaller companies will continue to make big-name gadgets while consumers are still impressed by high-tech products. Patriot Scientific can be contacted for more information. www.patriotscientific.com.
