The technology roots by Tesla

In the world had been a lot of people that invent different advances in technology, but Tesla is one of the most influential. He invented many things for the modern world He introduced electric energy into our homes with the invention of the alternative current. Will Nikola Tesla always be the master of electric technology?

Famous Tesla phrase:

BIOGRAPHY AND INVENTIONS OF NIKOLA

TESLA

Nikola Tesla was born on July 10th, 1856 and died in 1943New York. Nikola Tesla was a Serbian inventor, electrical engineer and mechanic, nationalized American He became famous for the development of alternating current Nikola Tesla studied at University of Graz and Prague. Later, he worked in various electrical industries in Paris and Budapest. Finally, he moved to the United States (1884), where he worked with Thomas A. Edison. They had many arguments. Even, many people think that Edison stole Tesla technology.

NIKOLA TESLA

Nikola Tesla is one of the greatest inventors in history, he is registered around 300 patents. Some important patents are "Tesla Bobbin" (1891) is an electrical transformer that shot lightning by sending electric current through a body. The invention that made him famous: "Alternating Current" (1893), which made it possible to transport electricity for long distances. This invention was joined by the radio (1893), neon lights (1893), X-rays (1894), remote control (1898) and the electric motor (1930) These inventions have become popular in the last decade. It is a motor that with magnetic fields turns and produces energy.

Despite, Nikola Tesla and Thomas A. Edison were working together, they were great rivals. Tesla proposed alternating current (AC) while Edison intended to replace it with direct current (DC). However, it didn't work for him. Tesla dominated the field of electricity. Now, alternating current is the base of the modern world, thanks to this system we can have electricity in our homes and industries.

THE MASTER OF PROGRAMMING

ADA LOVELCE

SUMMARY

To conclude with the previously mentioned, we can say that Ada Lovelace was of great importance for the development of technology and therefore of society because thanks to her inventions we can enjoy advanced technology nowadays We cannot forget that programming is present in our daily lives.

CONTRIBUTION OF ADA LOVELACE

Ada Lovelace had many contributions in the world of technology, because of her ability and great imagination, which helped to generate the most famous invention known as computer algorithm, she also generated computer concepts such as bucle or subrutina. Another concept that Ada Lovelace contributed is the universal machine that worked so that an artifact can be programmed and reprogrammed to perform different activities. She also introduced the concept of computer programming, which is essential for the operation of today's computers.

PROGRAMMING NOWADAYS

Programming today is of great importance, because thanks to this you can have programs such as software or a computer system which are of extremely importance for technological advances that are generated, we can say that programming has facilitated the work of many people as there is more ease to complete technological work and thanks to all these inventions the world has been evolving little by little.

THOMAS ALVA EDISON

Thomas Alva Edison, (born February 11, 1847, ohio, U.S-died October 18, 1931, West orange, New Jersey), American inventor who has a worldrecord 1093 patents. In addition, he created the world's first industrial research laboratory. He began his career in 1863, in the adolescence of the telegraph industry, when the only source of electricity was batteries.

INVENTIONS

He perfected the automatic telegraph, invented on apparatus to transmit the oscillations of stock market values, collaborated in the construction of the first typewriter and gave practical application to the telephone by adopting the carbon microphone, his name started to be know, his inventions have him benefits and Edison could buy machinery and hire workers. He was very exigent with his workers and the results were very positive.

Thomas Edison, at the age of 29, bought land in Menlo Park, near New Jersey, where he built a research laboratory, “the Invention Factory”, as Thomas Edison named his laboratory. This laboratory had a library, workshops, and living quarters for him and his workers for research and practice. In this laboratory, he completed one of his greatest inventions, the phonograph

Human beings have been the unique species that create objects and things that helped to solve and improve problems. Technology has a lot of masters like Tesla, Thomas Alva Edison, Alan Turing, etc. In this article we are going to talk about just one master; Martin Cooper, the creator of the first portable mobile telecommunications, and why he revolutionized technology and communications.

In 1928, Martin Cooper was born on December 26th in Chicago, Illinois His real name is Marty Cooper, and he created the first portable mobiles. Also, he made the first call with it. His wife's name is Arlene Harris, and his fathers names are Arthur Cooper and Marry Cooper. He founded two companies after working his whole life At first, Cooper struggled a lot to get money but after all, he is a successful businessman.

Martin Cooper graduated from the Illinois Institute of Technology with the title of Electronic Engineer in 1950 and to pay this institute, he worked in the sailors. After three years working there, he got a job in Teletype, where he worked for three more years. Then he joined the Motorola Company. He worked for three decades and quit to join the company “Cellular Business Systems”. He won the Marconi and Charles prize

Considered as the father of the mobile phone, Martin Cooper invented the first portable mobile in 1972-1973. He was working in the Motorola Company when he made his creation “Dyna TAC” (Dynamic Adaptive Total Area Coverage). It was 23 centimeters high, and his weight was 1 1 kilograms It allowed you to make 35 minutes of conversation before the phone turned off, and its cost was $3.995. He founded “Cellular Business Systems”, he sold it and created “Dyna Company” with his wife.

But after all of that, why do I consider Martin Cooper revolutionized technology and communications? This is because despite his creation, the portable mobile, his company “Dyna” inspired a lot of new business. For example, “Array Can” in 1996 which developed the software for wireless systems, and “GreatCall” which provides wireless services for the Jitterbug Also, he won a lot of prizes and acknowledgements that prove he is one of the most important inventors that the world has ever had.

ALAN TURING

HIS LIFE AND CONTRIBUTIONS

Alan Turing was a British mathematician, computer scientist and cryptographer, born in London in 1912. His legacy to technology is enormous, and his discoveries and breakthroughs arguably laid the foundation for the digital world we know today.

From an early age, Turing showed a flair for mathematics and logic, and graduated from Cambridge University in 1934 with first-class honors in mathematics. In the years that followed, he worked on several mathematical theories that would have a major influence on the development of modern computing.

But his true genius was shown in the design of a computing machine that became known as the "Turing Machine". This machine was a theoretical model of a computer that could process information automatically and programmatically, and is considered the forerunner of the modern computer. The Turing Machine became the basis for the development of the first electronic computers, which appeared in the 1940s.

However, his greatest contribution came during World War II, when he worked as a cryptographer at the British government's code-breaking center, known as Bletchley Park. There, along with a team of mathematicians, engineers and linguists, he worked on the development of a machine called "Bombe" that could crack enemy codes in record time.

ALAN TURING

HIS STORY AND TRAGIC DEAD

After the war, Turing continued to work in the field of computer science, and developed one of the first chess programs for a computer, demonstrating his skill in programming complex systems. He also developed the "Turing Test," a test used to determine whether a machine can think and communicate like a human being, which became a milestone in the history of artificial intelligence.

Unfortunately, Turing's life was not easy. In 1952, he was convicted of being gay, which was illegal at the time in the UK, and was forced to undergo hormone treatment for chemical castration. This brutal treatment drove him into depression and finally to suicide in 1954.

Despite his tragic end, Alan Turing's legacy is undeniable. His theories and discoveries revolutionized computing and technology, and have laid the foundation for many of the technological advances we enjoy today. In 2009, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown made a public apology on behalf of the government for the inhumane treatment Turing had suffered, and in 2013, he received a posthumous pardon from Queen Elizabeth II.

In summary, Alan Turing is an example of the importance of scientific research and creative thinking. His contributions to technology have had a lasting impact on society, and his legacy continues to inspire scientists and programmers around the world to continue working on technology and its advances.

THE MOST IMPORTANT OF

Isaac Newton was one of the most important geniuses in the history of science. In addition to being ¨the guy with the apple and the law of gravity¨, Newton brought enormous advances in the fields of physics, mathematics, philosophy, and theology, Being also an alchemist and one of the greatest inventors.

WhoisIsaacNewton?
IsaacNewton

Isaac Newton was undoubtedly one of the greatest proponents of physics. Not only did he establish the law of universal gravitation in 1687, but he also investigated to the very roots of motion, establishing its fundamental principles, the 3 laws of motion:

NEWTON'S THREE LAWS

Inertia: every body remains in its state of rest or uniform rectilinear motion unless it is forced to change its state by forces impressed upon it.

Force: the change of motion is proportional to the impressed driving force and occurs according to the straight line along which the force is impressed.

Action and reaction: to every action there always corresponds an equal and opposite action, i.e. the reciprocal actions of two bodies are always equal and are directed in opposite directions.

All of this invents have achieved development in the world and that is thanks for the "Masters of technology".
