Greek term or phrase: ιδιοσυσκευή

proprietary device
Explanation:
Ιδιοσυσκευή (που δεν υπάρχει στα λεξικά) είναι αυτό που κοινώς λέμε "πατέντα", όχι με τη σημασία του διπλώματος ευρεσιτεχνίας, αλλά της πρωτότυπης συσκευής, επινόησης κ.λπ.
Όπως το ιδιοσκεύασμα είναι proprietary medicine κ.λπ., η ιδιοσυσκευή είναι (ανεπισήμως) original device, contraction κ.τ.ό., αλλά επίσημα proprietary device.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Το proprietary ήταν αυτό που μου διέφευγε... because it's not necessarily a prototype. Brilliant, thank you.
