Patents

When an inventor develops a product, they will often patent the product to make sure no one else develops the same thing and takes credit for it.  Are you wondering whether someone has made a device similar to the one you want to make? You can see if the idea has been patented by searching in Lens.org, Derwent, or the US patent database.
