Today (March 3, 1847) is the birthday of Alexander Graham Bell, the founder of the Bell Telephone Company, who invented the telephone.
If we want to know how essential
an object is in our life, it is enough for us to imagine a world without that
object. For example, can you imagine a world without a phone!! Phones are a
monument to their inventor in every home and every office desk. It was Alexander
Graham Bell who brought that noble instrument to the world. Alexander Bell was
born on March 3, 1847, in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was nicknamed Alexander Graham
Bell, along with his family friend Alexander Graham. His father, Alexander
Melville Bell, was a professor. The mother is Elisa Grace. His grandfather, who
lived in London, his uncle in Dublin, and his father, Alexander Melville Bell,
in Edinburgh, all worked as professional elocutions.
How to show different sensations
by eye movements? How can a deaf person understand what a person is saying with
the movement of his lips? Bell's father has written several books on the
subject. At the age of eight, Graham became proficient in playing the piano. At
the age of ten, he lost the desire to go to school. He devoted his time to
reading the piano and researching sound waves rather than studying Latin and
Greek. He fell in love with a deaf woman who was engaged in research into
converting speech into electrical sounds and married her. Graham Bell's family
emigrated to Canada. While living in Boston, Bell set up a school to train deaf
school teachers. In which he taught the basics of speech. As his research and
knowledge spread, the University of Boston hired him as a professor of speech
anatomy.
Bell turned on the music on the
piano and sent the music a certain distance. Only sounds were transmitted over
the telegraph. It seemed to Graham at the age of 18 that he could send talks
that way too. So get involved in those efforts. In those days human speech was
transmitted by telegrams from one place to another. Those methods were very
helpful to his research. In 1875 these efforts were somewhat successful. At
first, I was able to send vague speeches. The world's first telephone call in
1876 was made by Bell to his assistant, Watson. The first phrase he spoke on
the phone was "Watson, come here, I want to see you". Watson was able
to hear these words clearly. But no one cared about the phone that Bell
invented so he got very tired.
He put his phone in view at an
exhibition in Philadelphia. It was only after the King of Brazil took it in
stride and used it that the glory of the phone spread everywhere. With the help
of his father-in-law in the United States, he received a patent for the phone
on March 7, 1876. The word ‘hello’ was first answered by Thomas Edison on the
phone. Then it became the standard for answering calls. In 1877 he and his
assistant Watson founded a telephone company called the Bell Telephone Company.
He set up an organization called the Volta Laboratory with a prize of 50,000
francs from the French government for inventing the telephone.
Bell is not limited to the phone.
Through the government agency, he invented devices such as photophone, audiometer, metal detector, induction balance, wax recording cylinder, gramophone.
Bell was also involved in trying to find the plane. But it did not win him
over. But made some discoveries. Bell was the inventor of the Elyron part of
the plane. He later succeeded in reforming the seaplane. Innovated to raise goats. He also planned to create female goats that would give birth to
twins each time. He invented a rare tool that could help filter out excess
moisture in the air for veterans seeking to roam the desert. He founded the
Association for the Development of Speech Training for the Deaf. Bell has done
a lot to help Helen Keller, who invented the Braille system for the blind.
He was interested in creating
world English that was phonologically based. The most important feature of
Bell's history is that he holds the patent for 59 discoveries, both privately
and with other scientists. When the Second Industrial Revolution blossomed in
the nineteenth century, the three great creative geniuses used electricity and
radio waves to achieve the development of communication. Thomas Alva Edison,
the American genius who refined the telegraph transmitter made by Bell after
refining the telegraph transmission system, sent Alex Verraham Bell, the next
American genius to invent the telephone, the first American genius to send
telegrams over the wire. Marconi, the Italian scientist who created (Wireless
Communication). In the twentieth century, telephone, wireless, and television
have multiplied, and in the twenty-first century, all forms of communication
have become wireless.
Edison, Bell, Marconi, and Wright
brothers are considered to be the mechanical engineers of the
nineteenth-century creation of God. They all explored North American soil and
are hailed as the ones who multiplied the mechanical age into the world of alma
mater. Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone, died in the United
States on August 2, 1922, at the age of 75. On the day of his death, all
telephones in the United States were stopped for 5 minutes and tributes paid.
He received the Legion of Honor Award from the French Government, the Volta
Prize, the Albert Medal (1902), the Doctorate from the University of Uersberg,
and the Edison Medal (1914).
