' Wrote:Agreed. But Agiera has access to Valhalla One, which for context, is a technology creche originally intended to instruct the Nomads how to build improved technology once they had sufficiently expanded. So, the people with access to 'One have an understanding.
Now, this access is limited to a very select few, comprising of Liberty's best and brightest. Components are created (probably by machines to prevent assembly leaks) in a sealed environment. Now, bear in mind that this is DK technology, which is entirely divergent from human technology.
Looking at DK tech from a human perspective really won't do you any good. A human would need to understand how to create it before they could understand it on a technical level, really. Which is one reason among many this tech is fairly safe - no-one else has access to 'One.
Also, I'm assuming Gate and Lane Parts don't have any patent on them. For a patent, you have to publish how it works.
There isn't a patent per se, since Ageira will never let anyone else manufacture or distribute the technology on their behalf. Regardless, they still consider it proprietary technology, and take attempted theft or corporate espionage extremely seriously.
