Whenever I see a new piece of tech come out to the market, and get mad publicity, it seems like there is always some crazy breakthrough research that is being used. How do I go about coming up with creative ideas for a useful, successful product, if I dont have the research to back it?
My current creative process involves using technologies that I found on the internet, mashing them together with preexisting ideas I have from my own experience, and part by part, work the idea in to a product. Then when I check online if anything like this already exists, it turns out that it does, and it is 100 times better than the one I thought of.
Either that happens, or my Idea for a cool invention is just so completely bizzare and unnecessary, that I can't justify turning i in to a reality.
For a truly revolutionary idea, in the past people, with revolutionary ideas like Tesla, or Google, had truly original ideas, that were ahead of their time. Maybe taking inspiration from current new tech is the wrong approach, Maybe the best way to do this is by changing the way I approach coming up with new Ideas. Maybe I can try avoiding new tech all for a while and see what happens. I draw inspiration from it, but If i stop that, perhaps I can solely focus on looking for real world problems that need to be solved. That is, of course what most experienced people suggest.
