**NIKOLA TESLA father of the wireless communication,The master of lighting

"We must be able to transmit things from other places over long distances… pictures, the news, energy… why not matter too? We must liberate thought from its limitations imposed by space and time, and yet keep its characteristics. This will be possible in the next decades or centuries.”

Nikola Tesla

Nikola Tesla is one of the most fascinating, talented and mysterious men of science in the modern age. There are many innovative discoveries and technologies which have been attributed to Tesla (such as wireless electric transmission), and according to rumors many other inventions have been conceived by this modern genius. Born in Serbian Cyrillic on July 10, 1856 and pass away on January 7, 1943). He was a Serbian-American inventor, mechanical engineer, and electrical engineer. He was an important contributor to the birth of commercial electricity, and is best known for developing the modern alternating current (AC) electrical supply system. His many revolutionary developments in the field of electromagnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries were based on the theories of electromagnetic technology discovered by Michael Faraday. Tesla's patents and theoretical work also formed the basis of wireless communication and the radio.

Tesla was a subject of the Austrian Empire by birth and later became an American citizen. Because of his 1894 demonstration of wireless communication through radio and as the eventual victor in the "War of Currents", he was widely respected as one of the greatest electrical engineers who worked in America. He pioneered modern electrical engineering and many of his discoveries were of ground breaking importance. In the United States during this time, Tesla's fame rivaled that of any other inventor or scientist in history or popular culture


 

Tesla demonstrated wireless energy transfer to power electronic devices in 1891, and aspired to intercontinental wireless transmission of industrial power in his unfinished Wardenclyffe Tower project.

Because of his eccentric personality and his seemingly unbelievable and sometimes bizarre claims about possible scientific and technological developments, Tesla was ultimately ostracized and regarded as a mad scientist by many late in his life. He died without much money to his name.

Some of this inventions:

Induction motor - this is a superior type of motor because it relies on electromagnetic induction as a supplementary source of power to the rotor. In layman’s terms, in means that this motor is remarkably more efficient, more powerful and consumes less power when compared to standard combustion motors. It’s no wonder this technology is widely used by car manufacturers worldwide.

The tesla coil - At the time regarded as a mere eccentricity by an “esoteric” inventor, the Tesla coil is now widely used in many devices produced on industrial scale, including most television and radio sets. The Tesla coil remains a symbol of misunderstood scientific genius, and it’s a proper testament of Tesla as a man who was well ahead of his time.

Alternating Current (AC) - In a time where most people would swear that Direct Current was the way of the future, Tesla dared to say otherwise, and he came up with Alternating current. At the time he was regarded as a mercenary at best, a crazy man at worse… but truth of the matter is that nowadays the majority of public electricity networks relies on using alternating current.

Modern radio - many people assume the radio transmitter was invented by Marconi, but this isn’t completely accurate. While it’s true that Marconi may have been the first to put together a functional radio, Nikola Tesla has much credit here… after all, Marconi apparently used no less than 17 patents which at the time had been filed by Tesla, in order to put together the first radio. As such, many people nowadays think of Tesla as the father of modern radio.

Fluorescent lightning – even today, an invention such as fluorescent lighting may not seem like more than a curiosity, but truth of the matter is that it was the basis for other important discoveries, even in the medicinal and pharmaceutical fields.

 

**Prosthetic hands

0

Prosthetic hands typically come in three varieties: purely cosmetic models; hooks and other low-cost mechanical appendages that provide a limited range of motion; and electronic versions that better mimic natural hand movements yet can cost tens of thousands of dollars. Mark Stark’s prosthetic incorporates the best elements of each. Although its minimalist plastic assembly is nearly as light and inexpensive as a common steel hook, it looks and moves like a high-end electronic hand.

Stark, who makes his living designing valves for dryers and other appliances, got into prosthetics in part to help his friend, Dave Vogt, who was born without a left hand. Stark’s creation is electronics-free, but its fingers each have three knuckles (two on the thumb) that bend separately to conform to anything the wearer grasps, including irregularly shaped objects that a hook can’t hold.

Hooks attach to a socket at the end of an amputee’s arm and are operated by a cable that runs up to a shoulder harness. When the wearer shrugs his shoulders, the cable pulls the hook open; when he relaxes, the cable slackens and the hook closes. The Stark Hand screws into the same socket-and-cable system but adds a lever on the palm that connects to five more cables, each running up the back of a finger. A shoulder movement triggers the lever to tug all five fingers open at once, and the individual cables let each finger rebound on its own. Springs in each joint contract until each finger comes to rest on an object, so some fingertips can curl around, say, a wineglass stem while others grasp the cup. The springs exert a level of pressure gentle enough to hold an egg but strong enough that you can lift a chair.

Wine recyclable bottles (GreenBottles)



The idea of ​​making a bottle of wine out of paper may seem ridiculous to many, and wine lovers can and does regard it as sacrilege. But just the idea of ​​creating a “green bottle” suggested the British company Greenbottle, which is working on the implementation of environmental materials for sustainable development in the world.

Greenbottle company hopes that her child would be a good alternative to glass bottles and will be able to prevent the emergence of at least 15 million plastic bottles, which are annually in landfills and the UK for the decomposition of which requires at least 500 years. In addition, the paper bottle of 0.5 liter weighs only 55g, which will reduce transportation costs. It is not enough that the glass recycling requires significant energy consumption, carbon footprint, while about 10%, and packaging of paper decomposes completely within a few weeks.

Author of this idea is Martin Mayerskoh. He came up with a paper bottle after his conversation with the head on the problem of recycling plastic packaging. In this case, Martin argues that creating a bottle made ​​of paper, he would not change its shape, at least in order not to offend connoisseurs. “Certainly, we could approach the idea of creating a paper bottle of wine for a more radical, but we didn't’t want to change the concept and consumer habits.

We only care about the environment “- said Martin Mayerskoh to The Guardian.
