Tag: Synthesizing Innovative Ideas

Annotation: Fundamental Issues of Horizontal and Vertical Integration of Structural and Technological Solutions in the Context of the Complex Uncertainty of the Final Integrated Solution. Introduction. To ensure comprehensive protection of innovative technical ideas from uncontrolled borrowing and even copying, the non-obviousness of an idea for an average specialist in the technological field has immense significance in the context of an increasingly deepening globalization. This importance is further exacerbated by the specific and complex development of the idea and its gradual step-by-step transition from a pure idea to concrete interrelated technical solutions and their integrative penetration and technological diffusion from one technological field to other adjacent technological fields. A fundamental condition for such penetration is the shifting of boundaries between technological fields and the blurring of characteristics and properties of such boundaries. Purpose. As an example of the emergence and synthesis of this type of innovative idea, the author of this publication presents the development of an idea for contactless remote control and online monitoring of parameters and concentrations of technological solutions. The principle of the sensor-capsule design and the algorithm for its application are detailed, leading to the serial production of such sensor-capsules and their large-scale use in modern complex high-tech manufacturing, as well as in biological technologies, medicine, and agriculture. Materials and methods. At this point, the author finds it necessary to take a brief detour to analyze both macro and micro variants in the development and application of these technologies, considering the specifics of their use in various scales of application and the different conditions under which they are applied in modern smart manufacturing environments.
