The Innovation Theory of TRIZ is a set of techniques and strategies designed to help solve problems it is often used in product development and design engineering. The methodology is based on research findings and offers a structured approach to solving challenging problems. However, there are limitations to using TRIZ for people with limited scientific backgrounds, it may be difficult to apply TRIZ to their projects. To make the most of the technique, you should understand its basic principles.

TRIZ was created by Genrich Altshuller a Soviet scientist he developed a method for detecting and overcoming contradictions in technical systems. …
