  3. It is a creation resulting from study and experimentation.
  4. Idea selection, development and commercialization.
  5. It turns ideas into practical reality and usually increase productivity.
  6. “Innovation occurs when someone uses an invention or an idea to change how the world works, how people organize themselves, or how they conduct their lives.”, from Wikipedia.

What is novelty?

  1. It is something new and unusual and it requires originality and newness.
  2. It is a previously unknown thing or experience.
  3. It generates an new idea, it can be new perspective for fashion, design, experience…etc…

What is Invention?

  1. It is a process of accomplishing something new.
  2. A good Invention needs highly creativity, innovation and novelty.
  3. It is combination of elements that usually would not be put together.
  4. It is to create something useful to the world.
  5. To invent is to raise something people think impossible, to create new possibilities.
  6. “An invention is the creation of a new configuration, composition of matter, device or process.”, from Wikipedia.

An invention is a creation based on the existing elements but it create new functions and configurations. Here are two interesting videos I found in Youtube about the invention in the past. Some of the inventions might not turn out well but I think it does not matter because people learn from mistake.

This video make me laugh a lot yet I salute them because they created the world where we live now. Now let’s see this amazing invention which may change our life. An inventor who was trying to find a cure to kill cancer cells turned up another mighty invention. Salt water can be burned. If this invention came to a success we can save money on petrol! ^^
