SCIENCE AND
TECHNOLOGY
DEFINITION AND
ASSUMPTIONS
SCIENCE
• Description, understanding and prediction of
physical phenomena through the use and
generation of verifiable theories, laws and
principles.
• Research and development are usuals
activities associated with science as process.
• Research and development involves
acquisition of new knowledge to devise new
or improved product or processes.
2
TECHNOLOGY
• TECHNOLOY IS THE Use of scientific
knowledge and/ or empirical knowhow for
the production, improvement and
distribution of goods and services.
• It is more on related to economic activities
3
SOCIETY
• Society is a Group of person joined
together for a common purpose of by a
common interest. They come to learn and
perform behavior expected of them.
4
• Science is the study of the natural world
by collecting data through a systematic
process called the scientific method. And
technology is where we apply science to
create devices that can solve problems and
do tasks. Technology is literally the
application of science.

INTERRELATIONSHI
P BETWEEN
SCIENCE
AND TECHNOLOGY
1. Science cannot develop without the
required technology, infrastructure
needed for research and development.
Materials, equipment, information,
organization, management and financial
resources are necessary for the conduct of
productive research and development.
2. Technology cannot advance without
continuing inputs from Science ( research
and development).
Example: Knowing that heat technology
was used for cooking and lighting even by
primitive people. The technological leap
was achieve only after explanation of
science of thermodynamics based on
physics ang chemistry

PHILIPPINE
SCIENCE
AND
TECHNOLOGY:
CHALLENGES
AND INITIATIVE
12
“The Filipino has his own
unique technological
potential that, when given
support and the right
environment with the
corresponding atmosphere
of freedom, he or she can
produce inventive ideas,
products and processes in an
exceptional manner on a par with
international standards”
13
Here’s a list of notable Filipino inventors and their
inventions that were either rejected, underappreciated,
or lacked proper recognition and support in the
Philippines:
1. Agapito Flores -
Fluorescent Lamp
•Claim to Fame: Often
credited as the inventor of the
fluorescent lamp.
•Why
Rejected/Controversial:
Although there is debate about
whether Agapito Flores truly
invented the fluorescent lamp,
the lack of Philippine support in
furthering his work allowed
Western companies to develop
and commercialize the
technology. Flores received
little acknowledgment or
support in his homeland.

Here’s a list of notable Filipino inventors and their
inventions that were either rejected, underappreciated,
or lacked proper recognition and support in the
Philippines:
2. Diosdado Banatao -
Microchip (with Reduced
Instruction Set Computing,
RISC)
•Claim to Fame: Created the
first single-chip graphical user
interface accelerator used in
modern computers.
•Why
Rejected/Underappreciated:
Despite his groundbreaking
contribution to computer
technology, Banatao’s work
was more celebrated abroad
than in the Philippines. He
struggled to gain recognition
locally because the tech
industry in the Philippines was

not advanced enough to
Here’s a list of notable Filipino inventors and their
inventions that were either rejected, underappreciated,
or lacked proper recognition and support in the
Philippines:
3. Roberto del Rosario -
Karaoke Machine
•Claim to Fame: Invented the
karaoke machine and patented
it in 1975.
•Why Rejected: While his
invention revolutionized
entertainment globally, the
Philippines did not fully
recognize or support his
contributions. Japanese
companies, such as Daisuke
Inoue’s, are more popularly
credited with the concept, even
though Del Rosario held the
patents.
•support his innovation.

Here’s a list of notable Filipino inventors and their
inventions that were either rejected, underappreciated,
or lacked proper recognition and support in the
Philippines:
4. Aisa Mijeno - SALT Lamp
•Claim to Fame: A sustainable
lamp powered by saltwater,
ideal for areas without
electricity.
•Why
Rejected/Underfunded:
Despite international acclaim,
including support from former
U.S. President Barack Obama,
Mijeno’s invention struggled to
gain funding and backing in the
Philippines for mass production
and distribution.

Here’s a list of notable Filipino inventors and their
inventions that were either rejected, underappreciated,
or lacked proper recognition and support in the
Philippines:
5. Gregorio Zara -
Videophone
•Claim to Fame: Invented the
videophone in 1955, an early
precursor to modern video
calling.
•Why Rejected/Neglected:
The Philippines lacked the
technological infrastructure to
utilize Zara’s invention at the
time. His work was not widely
recognized or developed
further locally.

6. Fe del Mundo - Medical
Incubator
•Claim to Fame: Created an
improvised medical incubator
using locally available materials
to help premature infants in
rural areas.
•Why Rejected: Despite her
ingenuity and international
recognition, her work was
undervalued in the Philippines.
The lack of government support
limited its widespread adoption.

7. Daniel Dingel - Water-
Powered Car
•Claim to Fame: Claimed to
have invented a car engine that
runs on water.
•Why
Rejected/Controversial:
Dingel’s invention faced
skepticism and rejection,
particularly from scientists who
questioned its feasibility. The
Philippine government and
automotive companies did not
invest in further research into
his claims.
