Inventions and innovations Summary:

 

Inventions and innovations are the result of a process through improvements and refinements. Inventions are new products that didn’t exist before, but an innovation is new ideas to improve an invention. The U.S uses patents (a property right that allows the inventor from using their ideas) to work as a “dibs” system to create inventions and models. These patents include dated sketches, descriptions, and explanations, or an engineering journal. The invention of the automobile was invented in 1672 with a scale model of a steam-powered car, but that idea is being innovation even today, coming up with different ways to design automobiles. Henry Ford had many innovative practices that included safety, efficiency, and wages. Development of automotive technology increased rapidly after Ford’s innovation.
