Who Invented the Radio

Written by chrisharrision01 on
Who invented the radio? The first person credited for the invention of the radio was Guglielmo Marconi, but was found to have used seventeen of Nikola Tesla’s patents.

The first radio was called a wireless telegraph and the first demonstration of the precursor to the modern radio was made on August 14, 1894. In 1896, Guglielmo Marconi then was awarded a patent for his improvements in transmitting electrical impulses and signals for apparatus, which became the radio. He ... Read Full Story

Written by gjsmith66 on
From:   www.z-car.com
A couple weeks ago, I posted that a small company named PowerMat had created a mat that delivered power wirelessly to small appliances like cell phone, shavers, etc. Because the device and the mat still needed to be in contact, I claimed that this was not true wireless power delivery, and declared myself the winner in a bet between myself and friend who we know as Tim. He had claimed that we would soon have wireless power delivery, while I felt that sending power will-nilly through the air was a lawsuit waiting to happen. Well today, I came across a few new articles. Ok, ... Read Full Story
