The spinning jenny had a big part in these developments. Once raw materials such as
cotton or wool were gathered, they had to be spun into yarn --
an often laborious task for people.
Niepce placed an engraving onto a metal plate coated in bitumen, and
then exposed it to light. The shadowy areas of the engraving blocked light,
but the whiter areas permitted light to react with the chemicals on the plate. When Niepce placed the metal plate in
a solvent, gradually an image, until then invisible, appeared.
Carrier stared through the mist and realized that he could dry air by
passing it through water to create fog. Doing so would make it possible
to manufacture air with specific amounts of moisture in it.
The United States Government began the serious undertaking
known then only as "The Manhattan Project." Simply put,
the Manhattan Project was committed to expediting research
that would produce a viable atomic bomb.
A cotton gin is a machine that quickly and easily separates cotton fibers from their seeds, allowing for
much greater productivity than manual cotton separation. The fibers are processed into clothing or other cotton goods, and any undamaged
cotton was used for clothes.
Bell's telephone transmitter (microphone) consisted of a double electromagnet, in front of which a membrane, stretched on a ring,
carried an oblong piece of soft iron cemented to its middle. A funnel-
shaped mouthpiece directed the voice sounds upon the membrane, and as it
vibrated, the soft iron "armature" induced corresponding currents in the
coils of the electromagnet.
The invention of the television was the work of many individuals in the 19th and early 20th century.
Facsimile transmission systems for still photographs pioneered
methods of mechanical scanning of images in the early 19th
century.
Early digital computers were electromechanical; electric switches drove mechanical relays to perform the calculation. With the continued
miniaturization of computing resources, and advancements in portable battery life, portable
computers grew in popularity in the 2000s.
In fact, some historians claim there were over 20 inventors of incandescent lamps prior to Edison’s version. However, Edison is often
credited with the invention because his version was able to outstrip the earlier versions
because of a combination of three factors: an effective incandescent material, a higher
vacuum than others were able to achieve and a high resistance that made power distribution
from a centralized source economically viable.
Steam-powered self-propelled vehicles large
enough to transport people and cargo were first
devised in the late 18th century.
The early history of radio is the history of technology that produced radio
instruments that use radio waves. The idea of wireless communication predates the discovery of "radio" with experiments in "wireless telegraphy" via inductive and
capacitive induction and transmission through the ground, water, and even train
tracks.
The first mobile telephones were barely portable compared to today's compact hand-held devices. Along
with the process of developing more portable technology, drastic changes have taken place in the networking of wireless communication and the
prevalence of its use.
The Technology Era
Industrialization1750 CE- 1914 CE
The Spinning Jenny was the most form of technology in order to make best clothing.
Industrialization1750 CE- 1914 CE
The Cotton Gin was invented by Eli Whitney was used to get the cotton fiber off the thorns.
Industrialization1750 CE- 1914 CE
The light bulb was introduced during this period to be able to see in the darkness.
Industrialization1750 CE- 1914 CE
The first camera and photography was taken during this time period were it was used to capture events.
Industrialization1750 CE- 1914 CE
The Telephone was the first thing that introduced distant communication.
Industrialization1750 CE- 1914 CE
The first automobiles took time to perfect, but once it was transportation was a lot easier.
20th Century and Modern World1914 CE-Present
Air conditioning was invented using humidity and moisture and release air for people to cool off.
20th Century and Modern World1914 CE-Present
The radio was invented and as well the first live broadcast as well.
20th Century and Modern World1914 CE-Present
Transmission of televised signals were introduced in order to bring motion picture on screens.
20th Century and Modern World1914 CE-Present
During this time there were also chaotic wars and the first atomic bomb was invented.
20th Century and Modern World1914 CE-Present
The digital computer was invented bringing communication a whole lot different.
20th Century and Modern World1914 CE-Present
The mobile cellphone was invented which helped with communication portable.
