Invention – Innovation : Not all inventions bring innovation.

         

 It is true that inventions can be innovated, but not all inventions bring innovation. Because not all inventions are that usefull. Some of them are quite unnecessary. Like what the past Japanese inventors have tried to come up with, like the walking toaster, or a television shaped radio. But in my opinion, it might not be that good of use. But it is necessary in sense that it provides us with unique designs and models.

 

From what we have these days like the football shaped alarm clock, it is not that it can be used to play football with, but it’s just for fun. By having these weird and unique shaped things are fun. Sometimes people like things that are different. That’s why it can sell.

To me, Inventions like telephones can be innovated into something new and better like what we have nowadays, is because of its priority of use.

Now, we have wireless telephones and mobile smartphones as a replacement to the old corded telephone on the desk. It is not as heavy as the old model, and has better mobility to its user. It also provides us with thousands of useful functions in one smartphone.
