Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”] ] .pull-right[  ] --- ## TRIZ Workflow: Story #1: Meat Transportation .pull-left[ A meat plant in South America ships its product to the US. Refrigeration is required during transport to keep the meat frozen. The meat is flown to the US, so refrigeration systems were installed in cargo planes. When competition increased, the owner of the plant sought to reduce delivery cost. It became obvious that he must increase the amount of product per air shipment. Analysis of the situation revealed that he could compete better if **the weight of the refrigeration system were replaced with that of meat**. ] .pull-right[ He did exactly that. Flying at an altitude of 15,000–25,000 feet the air temperature is below 32 deg. F, so no refrigeration system was actually needed. Conclusion: **Utilization of existing resources** costing nothing brought the system closer to Ideality. The art of inventing is the ability to remove barriers to Ideality in order to qualitatively improve a technical system. .footnote[https://www.triz.org/triz/ideality] ] --- ## TRIZ Workflow: Story #2: Red Adair and Oil Well Fires .pull-left[An oil well in Saudi Arabia exploded and caught fire. The result was a blazing inferno. Famed firefighter Red Adair was called in. Red knew that the fire could be put out if a huge amount of fire retardant foam could be dumped on the base of the well. There was enough foam available at the site to do the job. However, there was no hose large enough to put all the foam on the fire fast enough. The small hoses that were available could not shoot the foam quickly enough to do any good. ] .pull-right[However, Red Adair knew just what to do. He stationed men in a circle all around the fire, with all of the available small hoses. When everyone was ready all of the hoses were opened up and foam was directed at the fire from all directions. In this way a huge amount of foam quickly struck the source of the fire. The blaze was extinguished, and the Saudis were satisfied that Red had earned his three million dollar fee. **Segmentation Excessive Action** ] --- ## TRIZ Workflow: Case Study #1: Spotify Ad .center[ <iframe width="900" height="500" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/X1WP5J-I9f8?si=LHqbaUTjp1lJHlUB" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe> ] --- ## TRIZ Workflow: Case Study #1: Spotify Ad .pull-left[ - **AC**: I want to chill, but Mom wants me to take her veggie shopping.
