Hi! We are a small team of MEMS engineers based in Austin, TX. We are launching a company focusing on smart systems tech.
Regarding IP protection, would a patent be our best choice? Regarding the "novelty" of the technology, does this take into account developments in other countries, or only patents in the country in which our patent would have effect, meaning the US?

When you file a US patent application, any publication - literature, US patents, or patents from any other country - are considered in determining the novelty, as well as "obviousness" or "inventive step" with respect to your claimed invention.
