We have already entered or are entering the Sixth wave of Innovation by the year 2020. The current ongoing fifth wave of innovation started in 1990. It was driven by digital networks, software and new media, and is rapidly giving birth to the new wave. This new wave of innovation, we propose will be driven by (a) Networked, Autonomous and Hypersonic – Things, (b) Algorithmic intelligence and (c) Synthesized – Biology, Energy and Reality. However, our methods of thinking and inventing need to evolve in the sixth wave of innovation. TRIZ, that was developed during the 4th wave of innovation (1950-1990) driven by petrochemicals, electronics and aviation, missed its evolution journey in the fifth wave (current wave) that is about to give way to the sixth wave. TRIZ need to evolve by discovering new laws of system evolution and utilizing the “inventive energy” available from the previous five waves of innovation. This talk proposes evolving TRIZ through new laws of system evolution and new tools of System-Function Interactions so that it increases the inventive energy in the sixth wave of innovation.

TRIZ - SYSTEMS EVOLVES TOWARDS IDEALITY
22
• Altshuller was the first to realize that the direction of progress,
or technical evolution, is defined by increasing the ideality
level
• An Ideal system does not exist, but all of its functions are
fulfilled at the right time and at the right place — without
energy, substance, or other resources, and without any ill
effects.
Ideality provides an overall starting
point for thinking – rather than
searching in the current “mess”
Searching for a needle
in a Haystack!
