What is Modular Innovation?

Modular Innovation is a framework that enables data sharing and reusability across applications, communities, and enterprises by making technology improvements in product modules without altering a product or service's architecture. It is a combination of engineering and management approaches that helps individuals have better control over their content, sharing, and customization. Tesla's Model X, iRobot's Roomba, Google's Project Ara, adjustable app-controlled sofas, 3D smartphone camera adapters, and Apple's iPad are all examples of Modular Innovation. MIT ID Innovation offers courses to individuals who want to learn everything about Modular Innovation to take their enterprise to the next level.
