Me and my lil brother came up with an idea called the I.D.C. (Inhalant Dosage Counter). What brought about the idea was the fact that most of the people in our family has asthma and they would never know when their inhaler was running low to get another one. They would have 3 somtimes 4 inhalers and they all would be empty. We took it upon our selves to come up with the I.D.C.
We were both in school then and we seen a commercial on T.V. about InventHelp and how they would help u get your inventon out. My little brother who is just 2yrs younger than me drew the diagram and we sent it to InventHelp. We were then told that they would help, but we would have to send them some money to get a working model. This was in 1995 or 1996. Since we couldnt afford to send them the amount of money neeeded to come up with a working model we simply went on with our lives. Im now starting to see inhalers both dry powder and in mist form. I feel we should be compensated. I will not tell a lie and said I thought about about the dry powder inhaler but the one for the mist inhalants was our idea.
