1. A system for testing the technical applicability of intellectual property rights comprising:
a computational linguistics module, which is designed to receive chains of technical graphemes and/or digitized symbolic images of intellectual property right specifications as input information, and to mechanically transfer the input information into an information model;
an ontology memory, which is designed to store taxonomies, which are linked via inference rules, of conceptual classified object types;
a semiotics module, which is coupled to the computational linguistics module and the ontology memory and which is designed to instantiate semiotic signs included in the information model, which is generated by the computational linguistics module, using conceptual classified object types stored in the ontology memory, and to create a contextualized information model;
a construction module, which is coupled to the semiotics module and which is designed to generate a CAD model from the contextualized information model created by the semiotics module; and
a 3D printing device, which is coupled to the construction module and which is designed to additively manufacture a product, which is encoded by the CAD model.
