EXAMPLE : EXAMPLE It was only with the invention of the telescope that humans(Galileo Galilei)were able to look far enough into the sky to see the mountains of the moon. Galileo did not invent these mountains ,he discovered them with the help of an invention. EXAMPLE : EXAMPLE LIKE INVENTIONS LED TO DISCOVERIES, DISCOVERIES ALSO LED TO INVENTIONS EXAMPLE : EXAMPLE Benjamin Frankline discovered the electrical effects of lightning and also invented the lightning rod around 1752. This invention is still in use today. EXAMPLE : EXAMPLE THE ALPHABETS THE INK AND PAPER THE CLOTHES THE CHAIR and so on and so forth All of the above are inventions. There is a human mind behind each of them. How do we know when the inventions were made? : How do we know when the inventions were made? The pot was believed to have been invented by the people in Near east (Modern Iran) by 9000 BC. In the year 1960 older pots from 10,000 BC were found on Honshu Island, Japan. Sinan, a navigational device was invented by chinese 2400 years ago. It took another 1000 years this compass to reach Europe in the 13th century AD. How do we know when the inventions were made? : How do we know when the inventions were made? Some times different civilisations invented similar items independently. Ex: The mirror Turkey and America had polished volcanic glass and polished bronze or copper mirrors were made Egypt, Mesopotamia, China, Greece, Rome and the Indus Valley. HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? Necessity is the mother of invention- famous proverb HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? 1) Needing something which is not available in the market. Instead of cylindrical measures, have a sharp oblong top. PASCAL's adding machine Pascaline in 1642 at the age of 19. HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? 2) Wanting to help somebody Stop motion device invented to stop textile mill whenever something went wrong May be a walking stick with alarm for visually handicapped. HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? 3)Combining two or more products to produce a new and better product Motor and wheels HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? 4) Applying a better understanding of nature. Swiss Engineer George de Maestral invented VELCRO in the year 1941. Patented it in 1951 HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? 5) Combining traditional knowledge with modern scientific principle. Northern Nigeria is a hot, semi-desert rural area which has no electricity. People were struggling to keep their agriculture produce fresh especially vegetables and fruits. HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? Local teacher Mohammed Bah Abba invented a pot-in pot refrigeration system in the year 1995. Pot-in-pot—A desert refrigerator HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? : HOW ARE INVENTIONS INVENTED? 6) Improving past inventions Classic example-the modern external storage device. INVENTIONS IMPROVE OUR LIVES : INVENTIONS IMPROVE OUR LIVES Inventions improve our lives in many ways. They make our task easier,entertain us,improve our knowledge of the world and even save lives Inventions that make our life easier : Inventions that make our life easier Car -- -- -- -- INVENTIONS THAT INCREASE OUR KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD : INVENTIONS THAT INCREASE OUR KNOWLEDGE OF THE WORLD Microscopes ---- ----- ----- ----- INVENTIONS THAT ENTERTAIN US : INVENTIONS THAT ENTERTAIN US Television ----- ----- ----- ------ INVENTIONS THAT SAVE OUR LIVES : INVENTIONS THAT SAVE OUR LIVES Fire extinguishers ---- ---- ----- ------ INVENTOR MATCH MAKER : INVENTOR MATCH MAKER CAN YOU FIND OTHER INVENTORS WHOSE NAMES ARE RELATED TO THEIR INVENTIONS? : CAN YOU FIND OTHER INVENTORS WHOSE NAMES ARE RELATED TO THEIR INVENTIONS? Example: Diesel engines-invented in 1892 by german engineer called Rudolf Diesel Pasteurization process-inventewd by French Chemist Louis Pasteur in 1856 ---- ---- Slide 25: INVENTIONS ARE SO IMPORTANT TO ALL OF US THAT WE SHOULD ENCOURAGE TALENTED INVENTORS TO KEEP INVENTING.ONE WAY TO ENCOURAGE INVENTORS IS BY PREVENTING PEOPLE FROM STEALING THEIR INVENTIONS. PATENTS : PATENTS Slide 27: WHAT ARE PATENTS? A PATENT IS AN OFFICIAL DOCUMENT GIVEN TO AN INVENTOR BY GOVERNMENT.THIS DOCUMENT GENERALLY GIVES INVENTORS THE RIGHT TO STOP ANYONE ELSE FROM COPYING,USING,DISTRIBUTING OR SELLING THE INVENTION WITHOUT PRIOR PERMISSION FRON THE INVENTORS CONCERNED Slide 28: PATENTS ARE A PART OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, WHICH IS A LEGAL WAY TO PROTECT ALL CREATIONS OF THE HUMAN MIND.INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY IS DIVIDED INTO INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY AND COPY RIGHT INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY : INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY WHY ARE PATENTS SO IMPORTANT? : WHY ARE PATENTS SO IMPORTANT? Slide 31: Inventions are the result of hard work.It may take a moment of inspiration to think of a good idea but it takes a lot of research and experimentation to turn the idea into a useful and working invention Slide 32: Inventors deserve a reward for the amount of time they spend developing their ideas. They also need the security of knowing that if they share the invention with the rest of the world, nobody will steal it, use it or copy it without their permission. Slide 33: Patents provide rewards and protection for inventors but they also benefit society. In return for patent protection, inventors agree to reveal all the technical information about their invention. This information is available everyone and has enough details so any one with basic knowledge of the invention’s field can reproduce the invention. In this way, patents help to spread new knowledge.This new knowledge can in turn help others to solve different problems, or to make further advances in science and technology. STEPS TO BECOME AN INVENTOR : STEPS TO BECOME AN INVENTOR IDENTIFY A NEED OR A PROBLEM : IDENTIFY A NEED OR A PROBLEM The first thing you need to become an inventor is an idea, an inspiration for something new. Do you need a better product than that which you can find in the market? Invent it. Can you think of something that will make a task easier for you or for someone you know?-Invent it RESEARCH : RESEARCH Once you have identified a need or problem and thought of a useful invention to solve it, it is time to start your research. Find out everything you need to know about the science and technology related to your idea. RESEARCH : RESEARCH Your text book may not contain all the information that you need for your research.Find additional more specific sources of information at your local library and on the Internet. Don’t be shy about asking teachers and librarians for advice and guidance. EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND : EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND “I have not failed. I have just found 10,000 ways that won’t work” “Just because something dosen’t do what you planned it to do doesn’t mean it is useless.” -Thomas Alva Edison EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND : EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND Once you have done your research, start experimenting and adjust your inventions until it works properly.Remember to keep notes with descriptions and drawings of your experiments and your final inventions. EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND : EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND At this point it is important to be patient and persistent. Don’t despair if at first you you don’t succeed. Remember that most inventors fail many times before they finally reach the result they want. EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND : EXPERIMENT AND KEEP AN OPEN MIND Remember also to keep an open mind at this stage. Experiments that go “wrong” may have excellent unexpected uses. If your experiment fails, look at the result in a different way; can you find another use for the “failed” result? APPLY FOR A PATENT : APPLY FOR A PATENT Once you have a working invention, do some research on the Internet to find if there are other people who have already invented something similar. If you are confident that your invention meets the conditions of patentability, and that it can make money in the market, consult a patent lawyer and apply for a patent. COMMERCIALISE YOUR INVENTION : COMMERCIALISE YOUR INVENTION Remember that inventors can make money only if people buy their inventions. Commercially successful inventions become innovations that change the way people do things. Creating a working invention that can be of use to people and patenting it are only first steps towards obtaining your reward. If no one knows about your invention, no one will buy it, no matter how good it is. You do not have the permission to view this presentation.
