Abstract
Contemporary inventors and investors are faced with new challenges and difficulties that have not been experienced by past generations of inventors. This basically is the result of the exponential increase in the amount of knowledge and the tough global competition. A magic formula for success does not exist, but following some basic rules to be discussed here, will greatly increase the inventor / entrepreneur's chance for success. Two examples, the Video capsule and a 3D imaging Camera that are based on the author's past inventions are described and analyzed to demonstrate some of the rules.
