TRIZ is a Russian acronym for the Theory of Inventive Problems Solving, or TIPS, the American acronym. TRIZ based by Genrich S. Altshuller in 1956 on inventive principles derived from the study of more than 1.5 million of the world's most innovative patents and inventions. TRIZ provides a revolutionary new way of systematically solving problems based on science and technology.
The fundamental idea of TRIZ consists in :
1) A recognition of technical, scientific, public and other systems derivative laws existence. (These laws are outer and perceptible).
2) An opportunity of use these laws and information funds as well as developed on their base concrete tools for purposeful search of new ideas in different areas of human activity.
Sergey Faer says that the most important message he obtained from TRIZ is "Be brave to solve problems". He believes TRIZ is applicable to life in many other areas. He loves his new application fields because the responses of his trials come back in a day, instead of months or years when he makes a technical invention.
