Aww yeah. Took a hot minute, but my patent plaque has finally landed.
Photograph of a brushed metal plaque mounted on a polished black plastic frame. The plaque bears the heading “United States Patent” and bears the abstract text or a patent, a selection of images from that patent, and the official seal of the United States Patent and Trademark Office alongside the legal phrase granting the patent. The title area reads: “Granted on August 22 2017; James C. Dovey; Patent number 9,742,977; CAMERA REMOTE CONTROL; Assignee: Apple, Inc., Cupertino CA.”
