Here's the patent: https://www.google.com/patents/WO2014011884A1?cl=en&dq=WO+20... It's pretty ridiculous. It's very obtusely written and clearly cites work from others as the basis for their technique (primarily in description paragraphs 1-6). Then in paragraph 7 they claim "None of the previous research on word recognition has been applied to RSVP."

They also have a WIPO patent[0], which may or may not affect you, depending on where you are. Also, since Github is based in US you might want to look elsewhere for project hosting (assuming that it's an open source project). [0] https://www.google.com/patents/WO2014011884A1

they don't have a patent. as miket pointed out, it is an patent application and thus unproven and not granted and not enforceable
