Anyone who invents or discovers a new, useful process, machine, or product can apply for a patent. This also covers new and useful improvements to existing inventions. The applicant must still meet this title's other conditions and requirements.
If you invent or discover a new and useful process, machine, manufactured item, or composition of matter, you may apply for a patent on it. This also applies to a new and useful improvement on any of those things. To actually get the patent, you still have to meet all the other conditions and requirements set out elsewhere in this title (Title 35, the patent laws).
