Week 5.

Invention - innovation :  

Again, not all inventions bring innovation, remember.

But it sure makes good Sci-Fi stories.    

What can we learn from here? something to blog about, perhaps.

    

I my opinion, based from the article and the video form the link above, I have learn that not all inventions that are created in the past will still be the same in terms of its usage in the future. For instance, there some popular devices which are created  in Japan around 1950's which was widely used during that time but today those devices are no longer been used and hard to be found because of  no demand for it. This shows that not all of the devices invented will bring innovation. In addition, some of the devices will just be forgotten when a brand new devices is invented.

Here are some example of devices invented in Japan around 1950's.
