Process of Invention and Innovation

Invention is about bringing a new idea for a product or process. And Innovation is about improving the existing idea to become better.

How do these processes start? The invention starts when people want to solve problems that the face everyday. Lets take an example from this article: http://www.themalaysianinsider.com/tech/article/the-pc-is-dead-long-live-the-tablet/ 

The article discussed about the development in Tablet Technology. About how this device is about the replace the usage of computers someday. On this case, the invention is the computer. The idea came to solve problems at that time. Yeah, they dont have an advance technology at that time. So, the computer was invented.

After years, with more development in technologies. Human realise that they can make a better computer. That is where innovation involve. They want to improve the ideas to help them solve the problems easier. So, they try to simplify all the functions of computer into a smaller device called tablet. And it works.

As a result, the tablet being really helpful today. It is very mobile. Easy for us to do our job or accessing internet where ever we are. Unlike computer, its is too big. Of course it is hard to carry it around. So, thanks to the innovation made.
