Competing Interests
MIT has filed a patent application on Ruler Arrays that is still under review by the patent office. We have reviewed the PLoS ONE policies on data sharing and the filing of this patent application will not alter our adherence to PLoS ONE sharing policies. As a matter of course, MIT files patent applications on certain of the results of government sponsored research. No employment, consultancy, or products are in development at this time based upon the technology. It is possible that at a future date the authors could financially benefit if the patent is issued and MIT finds a licensee.
