INNOVATION
INVENTION
⬡ The invention process is a process
within an overall engineering and
product development process.
⬡ It is related to the creation of new
product.
⬡ It requires scientific skills.

INVENTION: TELESCOPES
⬡ Hans Lippershey, credited with invention of
the telescope. The first person to apply for a
patent for a telescope was a Dutch eyeglass
maker named Hans Lippershey (or
Lippershey). In 1608, Lippershey laid claim to
a device that could magnify objects three
times.

INVENTION: TELESCOPES
⬡ The invention of the telescope played an
important role in advancing our
understanding of Earth's place in the cosmos.

9
INVENTION: TELESCOPES
⬡ Four Hundred Years Ago, Galileo's Telescope
Changed The World. Galileo used his
telescope to advance the theory that the
Earth was not the center point of creation,
which the Roman Catholic Church considered
"false and contrary to scripture." ... It was a
telescope. Not that Galileo had invented the
instrument.

INVENTION: TYPEWRITER
⬡ The first American paten for what might be
called a typewriter was granted to William
Austin Burt, of Detroit, in 1829. However, the
breakthrough came in 1867 when
Christopher Latham Sholes of Milwaukee
with the assistance of his friends Carlos
Glidden and Samuel W. Soule invented their
first typewriter.

18
INVENTION: TYPEWRITER
⬡ The typewriter was very important for
businesses because it allowed for information
to be recorded quickly and in a way that
would be very legible to all people. It is for
this reason that the typewriter and telegraph
were such important inventions

INVENTION: TURBINE
⬡ A rotary mechanical device that extracts
energy from a fluid flow and converts it into
useful work. The work produced by a turbine
can be used for generating electrical power
when combined with a generator.

23
24
INVENTION: TURBINE
⬡ Credit for invention of the steam turbine is
given both to Anglo-Irish engineer Sir Charles
Parsons (1854–1931) for invention of the
reaction turbine, and to Swedish engineer
Gustaf de Laval (1845–1913) for invention of
the impulse turbine.

INVENTION: WORLD WIDE WEB
⬡ The World Wide Web ("WWW" or "The
Web") is the part of the Internet that contains
websites and webpages. It was invented in
1989 by Tim Berners-Lee at CERN, Geneva,
Switzerland. Sir Tim Berners-Lee created a
new markup language called HTML.
Websites are composed of pages linked by
hypertext links.
31
32
33
INVENTION: WORLD WIDE WEB
⬡ The Web was originally conceived and
developed to meet the demand for
automated information-sharing between
scientists in universities and institutes around
the world.

34
35
INVENTION: WHEEL AND AXLE
The wheel and axle is a machine consisting of
a wheel attached to a smaller axle so that these
two parts rotate together in which a force is
transferred from one to the other.
A hinge or bearing supports the axle, allowing
rotation. It can amplify force; a small force applied
to the periphery of the large wheel can move a
larger load attached to the axle.
36
INVENTION: WHEEL AND AXLE
The wheel and axle can be viewed as a version of
the lever, with a drive force applied tangentially to
the perimeter of the wheel and a load force applied
to the axle, respectively, that are balanced around
the hinge which is the fulcrum.

37
38
INNOVATION
⬡ It can be simply defined as “ new idea,
creative thoughts, new imaginations” in form
of device or method.
⬡ Innovation means adding value or making a
change in the existing product.

INNOVATION: GPS SYSTEM
⬡ GPS. Stands for "Global Positioning System." GPS
is a satellite navigation system used to determine
the ground position of an object.
⬡ GPS has its origins in the Sputnik era when
scientists were able to track the satellite with
shifts in its radio signal known as the "Doppler
Effect." The United States Navy conducted
satellite navigation experiments in the mid 1960's
to track US submarines carrying nuclear missiles.
41
INNOVATION: GPS SYSTEM
⬡ The Global Positioning System (GPS) is made
up of satellites, ground stations, and
receivers. GPS is a system. ... The receiver
figures out how far away they are from some
of them. Once the receiver calculates its
distance from four or more satellites, it knows
exactly where you are.

42
INNOVATION: GPS SYSTEM
⬡ Roger Lee Easton, Sr. (April 30, 1921 – May 8,
2014) was an American scientist/physicist
who was the principal inventor and designer
of the Global Positioning System, along with
Ivan A. Getting and Bradford Parkinson.

44
INNOVATION: TESLA MODEL S
⬡ Revolutionized the concept of electric cars
and self-driving capability. Created a race for
electric cars market. Self-driving option will
become a norm in all futuristic cars. Use of
renewable energy and avoiding fossil fuel
and its harmful effects. The Tesla Model S is
an all-electric five-door liftback car, produced
by Tesla, Inc., and introduced on June 22,
2012. 45
46
INNOVATION: DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY

⬡ Digital photography uses cameras containing

arrays of electronic photodetectors to capture
images focused by a lens, as opposed to an
exposure on photographic film. Digital
photographs are typically created solely by
computer-based photoelectric and
mechanical techniques, without wet bath
chemical processing.
47
48
INNOVATION: DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY

⬡ Steven Sasson invented the first self-

contained digital camera at Eastman Kodak
in 1975. It weighed 8 pounds (3.6 kg) and
had only 100 × 100 resolution (0.01
megapixels). The image was recorded onto a
cassette tape and this process took 23
seconds. His camera took images in black-
and-white.
49
50
INNOVATION: DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY

⬡ His invention began in 1975 with a broad

assignment from his supervisor at Eastman
Kodak Company, Gareth A. Lloyd: to attempt
to build an electronic camera using a charge
coupled device (CCD). The resulting camera
invention was awarded the U.S. patent
number 4,131,919.

52
INNOVATION: MICROFINANCE
⬡ Microfinance is a category of financial
services targeted at individuals and small
businesses who lack access to conventional
banking and related services. Microfinance
includes microcredit, the provision of small
loans to poor clients; savings and checking
accounts; microinsurance; and payment
systems.
53
INNOVATION: MICROFINANCE
⬡ The inventor of microfinance has an idea for
fixing capitalism. Muhammad Yunus won the
Nobel peace prize for inventing microfinance,
the practice of lending small sums at a low
interest to allow people to start businesses.

56
INNOVATION: ATMs
⬡ An automated teller machine (ATM) is an
electronic banking outlet that allows
customers to complete basic transactions
without the aid of a branch representative or
teller.

57
INNOVATION: ATMs
⬡ John Shepherd-Barron. John Adrian
Shepherd-Barron, OBE (23 June 1925 – 15
May 2010) was a British inventor, who led
the team that installed the first cash machine,
sometimes referred to as the automated teller
machine or ATM.

58
59
INNOVATION: ATMs
⬡ Shepherd-Barron once explained that he
came up with the idea of cash dispensers in
1965 while lying in his bath after finding his
bank closed.
