How Great Inventions Ideas are Thought Of

Alan Turing was also an avid runner

In the world of business and manufacturing today there is a growing number of patents and copyright restrictions on inventions and products. There is a lot of money to be made by developing a new invention, and it leaves a lot of people wondering; How are great invention ideas thought of? Well I plan to tell you what I have learned through my research and experience, about how good inventions are thought of. Firstly, one must have an imaginative, creative mind that can think outside the box and envision things that very few others can. Secondly, great inventions ideas are thought of when there is an opportunity for it. For example, just before the 1940’s, Alan Turing invented what would go on to be the groundwork for the what we know as computers today. But, he would not have had the opportunity to invent such a machine if the opportunity hadn’t come to help break a German message-encrypting device. Such grand circumstances called for a grand invention as such. Lastly, to come up with a good invention takes a lot of hard work, dedication and determination. To be the first to do or create something is unimaginably hard! Can you share of any great invention ideas, and if possible, how they were thought of?

Can Future Inventions Include Robots to Defuse Bombs?

Today, there are many different types of robots, robots that help clean garbage, robots that assist humans with daily tasks, and robots that can talk to you and even show “emotion”. In this post I want to discuss the possible future inventions regarding robots and my time serving in the military. During my time in the military, I found that defusing and disposing of live explosives (bombs) is an extremely dangerous task. With all the different concerns regarding terrorism and war, it makes you wonder if robots will be helping us on the battlefield or in the line of duty in the future. One of the possible future inventions that can help soldiers in the line of duty is bomb defusing robots, which can locate, defuse and dispose of dangerous, live explosives. At the moment, such robots do not exist; only ones which are remotely controlled to navigate and locate a bomb, and then defuse it using surgeon-like human controls, from a safe location away from the threat. In war there are many unnecessary casualties, and future inventions- like these bomb defusing robots- are ones that can help save lives. What inventions do you know of that help save lives?
