FI is an integrated approach to creative ideation and problem solving which incorporates aspects from several well known ideation and problem solving techniques. The Functional Innovation (FI) methodology developed out of a research study that involved analyzing nearly 20,000 recent innovations in order to identify common patterns and develop useful heuristics. In the 1960s, Swiss Physicist Fritz Zwicky developed the method of ‘Morphological Analysis’ for complex problems. Around the same time, Soviet Scientist Genrich Altshuller formulated a method for systematic problem solving after reviewing more than 40,000 patent abstracts. The FI methodology includes elements derived from these two approaches. It has also been influenced by the ‘Design Thinking' process introduced by Herbert Simon and the ‘Creative Problem Solving’ method pioneered by Alex Osborn.
