Innovation Flow at NCL

I delivered an Innovation talk to scientists at the National Chemicals Laboratory, Pune on 27 August '09. NCL is a premier lab run by Council for Scientific and Industrial research, Government of India. I spoke on Innovation flow - the science of flowing Ideas and Inventions into Technology Innovations.

You will find the Presentation Material "Innovation Flow" at SlideShare:

Why & How we should study AI & Machine Learning (6 Easy Steps)

AI & ML are fundamental new technologies that can create immense value to humankind. It is very important for us to learn AI & ML and apply this knowledge in our work. If you are somebody like me without prior exposure to computers, you may wonder where to begin the journey – I did some homework and found an easy step-by-step using online resources . It takes only 6 easy steps to gain mastery in AI & ML. I will start with sharing with you the talk that Risto Siilasmaa (Chairman, Nokia) gave in Nov, 2017 – “Why you should study AI and Machine Learning and how I did it”. Step # 1 - Risto Siilasmaa started his journey into AI & ML by asking, “Where could I find good material explaining how machine learning works in terms that would speak to an engineer who loves to understand how things work?” Step # 2 - “ Why not study machine learning myself and then explain what I learned to others who are struggling with the same questions. Perhaps I could mo...

Making Pirate Ships out of MRI - Design Thinking at its best

"..most effective insights we got came from kneeling down and looking at rooms from the height of a child" - Doug Dietz http://www.healthymagination.com/stories/pediatric-adventures/ This is the story of how Doug Dietz transformed a MRI machine into a Pirate Ship. Doug is an expert in designing advanced medical equipments like the MRI. When he was at a hospital, he was pained to observe how a small child was so terrified to enter the machine for a scan. Thats when he felt the needs for understanding his customers - the kids in thsi case - and design his product in such a way that make his customers feel comfortable. He transformed teh huge MRI equipment into a pirate ship so that the kids are mesmerized by the experience of entering a pirate ship when they are getting scanned. I learnt about this from a TED Talk that Daid Kelley (of IDEO) gave on How to build your creative confidence" - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16p9YRF0l-...

Archimedes' Bathtub, Newton's Apple and Einstein's Chair

When do Great Ideas come ? .... after Incubation Archimedes had his bath, Galileo had his leaning tower, Newton had his apple, and Einstein had his chair. All these Inventors were (a) intensely focused on solving specific physics problems (b) they had each looked at a variety of promising ideas, but reached an impasse after some stage (c) they smartly decided to move away from the scene - took a break (d) after some time, a fresh idea popped into their Mind (e) they recognized the potential of the idea and held on to it (f) they diligently worked on it and finally developed a real breakthrough concept. Many Inventors have shared the vale of incubating their idea and described specific instances where the incubation phase is followed by a sudden enlightenment. We have heard the stories of Archimedes, Galileo and Newton too often - so let us focus on Einstein's story. You might have heard of Einstein's Violin but not about his chair - the chair that gave...
