Abstract

This research proposal integrates two innovative methodologies—The General Theory of Powerful Thinking (OTSM-TRIZ) and the Futures Wheel, a tool for analyzing various scenarios—to provide decision-makers with new insights into future developments. The objective of this study is to propose a novel, combined methodology that offers a more holistic approach to resolving conflicts and planning for various situations. By merging inventive problem-solving techniques (OTSM-TRIZ) with scenario analysis (Futures Wheel) for a single event, change, or situation, this integration enables simultaneous and strategic application across different industrial contexts. The validation of this combined methodology is demonstrated through a case study: the development of an intelligent multimodal vision system using drones for real-time monitoring and mitigation of wildfires across extensive, unstructured territories. This approach highlights the potential for these integrated methodologies to enhance strategic planning in complex and dynamic environments.
