Edisons achievements in the electrification of New York and the introduction of electric light mark the beginning of widespread electrification in the industrialized world.This epochal change is particularly associated with his name.His well known developments include the phonograph

Not satisfied with what he already improved the life of the average American produces electric lighting, films and gramophones, Edison decided at the beginning of the 20th century, the time of the urban slum has passed, and the family of each working person should get a strong fire protection house, which can be built on relatively reasonable prices and en masse. What are these houses made of?  Of course, made of concrete, the material of the cement company Edison in Portland. Edison said, his education is reminiscent of being something reasonable of his venture, something he didn't even think about cashing in.

He was a rich man :)

The kinetograph was designed in 1890–91 by William K. L. Dickson (chief engineer at Edison), built by Johann Heinrich Krüsi (mechanic at Edison) and patented in the USA in 1894.

In this camera, 13/8-inch-wide films of celluloid with a ratchet mechanism were intermittently passed past a lens at up to 46 frames per second and exposed. The exposed film strip was developed photochemically. [1] The kinetoscope served as the playback device.

There were at least two copies of the kinetograph. Since about 2005 there is a replica of the first model and that of the Black Maria.

The term has also historically been used for film camera and film projector in general.

Thomas Edison Net Worth: Thomas Edison was an American inventor, author, and entrepreneur who had a net worth of $12 million at the time of his death on October 31, 1931. The modern, inflation-adjusted equivalent of its net worth is $170 million. However, it should be noted that Thomas is in extreme financial trouble at various points in his life.

When he came up with the idea of the telephone and telegraph later, Edison announced in October 1920 that he was working on a machine that would take dialogue to a new level. In the post-World War I period, spiritualism is experiencing a renaissance, and many people hope that science will be able to connect them with a way to connect with the souls of the recently dead. The inventor who considers himself agnostic, die einen Mangel an Glauben an die Existenz der geistigen Welt schon sagt, sprach von seinem Wunsch, eine Maschine zu schaffen, die in seinen Worten liest, „Wohneinheiten“, die das Universum nach dem Tod Menschen füllt.

As soon as Edison patented his phonograph, he began to develop ways to use it. One of the ideas that would first be heard in 1877, but was not patented until 1890, was to miniaturize a phonograph for dolls or other toys that gave voice to a previously voiceless creature. Phonograph was placed in the body of the doll, which looked like an ordinary doll outside, but now it costs 10 dollars. Little girls wrote  Nursery rhymes and songs, which were then the basis for what the singer said or sang.

There is no doubt that our lives would have been very different without the inventions of Thomas Edison. This amazing creator has transformed our culture in countless ways. Edison was born in Ohio in the United States in 1847 and recieved his first patent at age of 22. The last patent in his name was issued two years after his death in 1933. In his entire life he received only 1,033 patents and 1,200 patents in other countries of the United States. Biographers have calculated that, on average, Edison received a new patent every two weeks of his working life. Although many of his inventions were not unique and he was often sued with other inventors from whom he "borrowed" "ideas", his marketing skills and influence often helped him.

  Sir Humphry Davy was an important British chemist of the early 19th century and pioneer of electrochemistry, who discovered, among other things, the electric 

# data[].attributes.body
The beginning was clearly made by the English chemist Sir Humphry Davy, who already tried his hand at a concept in 1802 in which he connected two charcoal strips with each other. His experiments led to the first arc lamp and to this day represent the basis of all further research on electric light.
As early as 1820, Warner de la Rue, based on Davy's findings, used a platinum thread under a glass bell to produce light. However, due to the cost of platinum, this lamp was far too expensive for commercial use. So the search continued and led to James Prescott Joule, who first announced that electric current flowing through a conductor with high resistance generates thermal energy and this in turn produces light energy.
What else did Edison invent? In the course of his life, Thomas Edison applied for patents for more than a thousand different inventions. Among other things, the "phonograph", with which you could record voices on tape. And the "Kinetographen", one of the first film cameras. He was therefore also called the "Wizard of Menlo Park".

Thomas Edison is known for many things, including the countless patents he applied for. He is also said to have invented the light bulb. In fact, however, the Briton Joseph Swan has applied for the first patent on a functioning and usable light bulb. He developed his light bulb from 1860, in 1878 he succeeded in developing the first usable electric light bulb, which he patented. Edison improved Swan's light bulb and filed a patent two years later, leading to patent litigation. However, the inventor Swan and Edison quickly came to an agreement and founded the joint company Ediswan. However, the fame of the invention is attributed to Edison to this day.

It was not until 1878 that the British chemist and physicist, Joseph Wilson Swan, succeeded in developing an incandescent lamp that was also suitable for everyday use. That is why many consider him the real inventor of the lightbulb. He continued to develop his light bulb until it was ready for the market and argued with Edison about the patent rights. But Edison emerged victorious in the argument.

As one of the most important and most industrious inventors of the 19th and early 20th centuries, Thomas Alva Edison brought numerous technical devices to the world that had a significant impact on modern everyday life. Whether light bulb, telephone, typewriter or the direct forerunners of important devices in the entertainment industry - Edison's electrical devices made the inventor one of the richest entrepreneurs of his time. Even if other visionaries developed better solutions during his lifetime, we owe the everyday use of electricity in large part to Edison's tireless work.
