The Lemelson-MIT Program’s Invention Dimension is a fun-filled and at times wacky approach to making learning about invention exciting for the kid in all of us. Have some fun with invention games and explore the wealth of inventor and invention resources, including inventor profiles and patent guidelines.

Inventor of the Week – – Each week we profile a different inventor, from the past or present. Visit our current Inventor of the Week, or Browse the Archives,where you can search for information on a specific inventor or invention.

Inventor’s Handbook — An online handbook created for independent inventors and entrepreneurs to address questions concerning the protection of intellectual property, raising capital, applying for patents, and other steps to protect and commercialize ideas.

Games and Trivia — Test your invention IQ with our interactive Brain Drain. Also play other invention games such as “Which Came First” or “Invention Connection“ on our Inventing Modern America: From the Microwave to the Mouse Web site.
