🔒🛡️ IP Breakdown: Protecting What Matters

From step-counting algorithms to ergonomic bands, Miller IP customizes protection for your wearable’s tech, design, and brand—so you can innovate without worry.


🔬💡 Patents in Wearables

Wearable tech thrives on invention—patents can cover hardware (like biometric sensors, haptic feedback, or charging methods), as well as unique algorithms and user interfaces. Miller IP’s team has helped clients patent everything from hydration trackers to smart jewelry, translating tech breakthroughs into strong, enforceable IP rights.
We also advise on global patent strategies, helping you claim priority in the U.S., Europe, and beyond, so you don’t lose out on crucial markets. Our approach protects you from “fast followers” and patent trolls, maximizing the commercial value of your innovations.


🏷️🎽 Trademarks in Wearables

A catchy name or iconic device shape can define your wearable brand. Miller IP assists in clearing, registering, and enforcing trademarks—names, logos, slogans, and even product configurations—across multiple countries.
With counterfeits and lookalikes rampant in the gadget world, our team helps you monitor, oppose, and litigate infringement wherever it appears. We also advise on domain names and social media handles to ensure your wearable’s identity remains uniquely yours.


📚📲 Copyrights in Wearables

From mobile app graphics and UI animations to marketing photos and user manuals, copyrights are essential in the wearables space. Miller IP helps creators secure rights to code, visuals, and written materials—protecting your brand story and preventing unauthorized copying.
We simplify the copyright registration process and help clients leverage their content through licensing deals, partnerships, and digital collaborations. Your creative assets work harder for you with strong copyright protection.
