Jacob Morrise 🛡️

Biography

Morrise is a mechanical engineer and product designer, and the owner of Morrise Products, where he works on mechanical and electromechanical product design from concept through tooling. He holds a master's degree in mechanical engineering and reports roughly twenty years in product design. USPTO records list him as a named inventor on eight issued United States patents and ten published applications, across two spellings of his name. The issued patents cover a foldable baby stroller (11,679,796), an environment-controlled pet shelter (12,690,562), a secure storage system (9,797,680), two hand tool impacting devices assigned to Brigham Young University (9,102,046 and 9,981,364), a software portal architecture (12,333,478), and two design patents for a padlock and a door lock (D762,104 and D766,067). Published applications name Optisys, Inc., RPH Engineering LLC, PAWS UP Pet Products LLC and Brigham Young University as applicants or assignees. Morrise reports that he performed the mechanical design of the original Ring video doorbell; a colleague from that project confirmed this to WitnessDirect by email in September 2026. His expert work is offered in product failure analysis and design defect evaluation, including written reports, deposition and testimony, in matters where a product is alleged to have caused injury.
