• Literary works
• Musical works, including any accompanying words•
• Dramatic works, including any accompanying music•
• Pantomimes and choreographic works•
• Pictorial, graphic, and sculptural works•
• Motion pictures and other audiovisual works•
• Sound recordings, which are works that result from the fixation of a series of musical, spoken, or other sounds •
• Architectural works

If he wants to protect Halftime device, he should patent it.
