From selling or licensing the patented devices, abviously (duh!). For example, suppose I came up with a new technology that could convert sunlight to electricity at 50% efficiency and cost $10 per square meter. N= o laws of physics as they are currently understood need to be overlooked. Let's even further say that reasonably clever tinkerers could reproduce thi= s themselves. You really don't think that couldn't become a commercial success!!? I wouldn't need to own sunlight to make this work, just the patent rights. ******************************************************************** Embed Inc, Littleton Massachusetts, http://www.embedinc.com/products (978) 742-9014.
