Concept in Definition ABC

An invention is the creation of an object, product, theory or process that always implies the alteration of certain matter or materials. As is known, the inventive capacity is almost exclusively human and, except in a few cases, in nature. only man has developed the possibility of taking elements from it to transform them into compounds of higher complexity and utility.

When talking about an invention, reference is being made to two possible ways of composing a new element: from elements or pre-existing products (which are usually improved or altered) or from scratch as a result of perhaps unexpected development and surprising. The objective of the inventions can therefore be clear, but it can also be established a posteriori if the creation in question is the consequence of processes not previously thought of. However, the invention will always imply getting out of the rule and pre-established lanes, whether we are talking about inventions intended or not.

Of course, human inventions can also vary in terms of their effects: while some have been of great importance to Humanity, others are applicable to daily use and therefore can go a little unnoticed in the whole of history.

The process by which the human being comes to generate an invention normally begins with the need to solve a problem, a difficulty or improve something that is considered deficient. This is the moment in which the inventor in question plans a new element or product and after doing so must carry it out through the building of the corresponding structures (material or abstract). The stage end of an invention usually has to do with proof, justification or testing of such element in order to check if its functioning really applies to the satisfaction of such need.
