After this, he was appointed as a manager in the patent department of a company. Here he studied to become a patent lawyer and also got success in it. When I was a manager, he had to make several copies by hand for any application. In such a situation, he thought of such a technique that could make maximum number of copies in a very short time.

After this, he kept wandering from door to door, don’t know how many companies he approached, but no one believed in his search. One day suddenly his struggle paid off and Batley Memorial Institute made a contract with Carlson. Under this, the institute had to do research on the machine made by them and improve it in such a way that it becomes useful for other people and its cost is also less.
got a chance again
