Det er da også dumt ikke at sælge VR udstyr til ens eget militær.
Der er der da ingen moralske problemer med.

Det ville jo bare betyde at gå ud til en konkurrent og give dem lov til at benytte Microsofts patenter og andres til at lave samme produkt.

*Det Amerikanske militær er ikke underlagt patentlovgivning og kan give denne dispensation til en privat underleverandør efter ønske.

Det er ikke en særlig præcis beskrivelse.
Den amerikanske regering har mulighed for at "ekspropriere" patenter - som ved anden ekspropriation mod erstatning (loven siger "his reasonable and entire compensation").

After your application has been reviewed, and you have been chosen, you will undergo training to become a State Trooper in Rhode Island. This is a 22 week program in which you will report at 9 PM on Sundays and stay there until 5 PM the following Friday. Your daily schedule will be from 6 AM to 10 PM.

Altså "politimænd i USA er nærmest dørmænd med et ekstra aftenkursus" må være en alternativ sandhed af egen opfindelse.

Den typiske politiuddannelse i USA tager 22 uger. Og er efter dansk standard noget mere end fuld tid.

Det er firmaet selv som skal føre en retssag for at få udleveret disse penge for egen lomme (hvis ikke firma er non-profit eller under 500 medarbejdere).

Den vigtige sætning der er:
"what the owner has lost, not what the taker has gained."

Så i tilfælde at det amerikanske militær får produceret noget kun til dem selv, som ikke videresælges og som du ikke ønskede at producere for dem, så har du ikke mistet noget salg og har derfor ikke rigtig krav på noget.

Under § 1498(a), a patent owner who successfully proves infringement is entitled to “reasonable and entire” compensation. Like the definition of infringement, the remedies available to a patentee are limited by § 1498(a)’s roots in eminent domain, not tort. In takings jurisprudence, “[t]he proper measure in eminent domain is what the owner has lost, not what the taker has gained,” and in § 1498(a) what is taken from the patent owner is a compulsory nonexclusive license to use or manufacture the patented invention.
...
The Court of Claims explained that “reasonable and entire compensation” has two components related to a takings analysis: the first is to determine the value of the license at the time it was taken by the government, and the second involves compensating for the government’s delay in paying for that license.
...
To calculate the damages related to these two components, the Court of Claims has recognized three methods of valuation of the first component, license value: (1) determination of a reasonable royalty for the license; (2) awarding a percentage of government cost savings arising from governmental use of the patented invention; or (3) awarding lost profits.
...
In Decca, the Court of Claims recognized that the determination of a reasonable royalty is the preferred method of valuation, applying the same case law as in district court patent infringement actions. Indeed, where the patent owner has commercially licensed its patent on terms that are the “same or substantially similar to the rights taken by the Government,” the USCFC uses “virtually, without exception, the reasonable royalty method to value the license taken by the Government.” For the second component of delay compensation, the court multiplies any accrued royalty based on the initial license value by an annual percentage rate determined on a case-by-case basis.
