Drafting claims for All combinations of functions A, B, C

Posted by Anonymous . updated on 7/27/2011
Hi, I am a solo inventer and not yet in a position to hire an agent but my processing deadline is coming up so please help!!
I have an invention which consists of three functional peices -A,B,C.
There are many ways to create functionality A (for example authentication can be done by username/password, biometric,idcard swipe). So too with B and C.
Now I need to draft claims that will cover all combinations of A,B,C. I have a limit on number of independent claims and dependent claims so I just can't list out all possibilities.
The patent has high value and there is media interst in the product - I will do a first trial in a month or so. If anyone is willing to help with a little sweat work I may be able to pay a small fee down the line.

many thanks,
rajan
