Another, much more exciting , option, would be to 'build' a product that requires a number of patents, including those from a pool. Ideally we would want to 'implement' one or more standards and actually negotiate potential licensing agreements. This might well require likely requires Human Subjects approval (see:http://cphs.berkeley.edu/review.html), which can be difficult. We would (almost certainly, though for some standards I might be be able to do it) need assistance from an electrical engineer or other field expert, a lawyer, and considerable GSI support. This would not be cheap or easy. But we would have a well-defined sample and it would be fantastic research if we can pull it off.
