Aussie tech inventions that changed the world

Wi-Fi and Radio were actually both invented by Tesla.

No, they weren't. Telsa worked on the wireless conduction of electricity but nothing commercial came from his work. Guglielmo Marconi developed the use of radio waves (wireless) telegraphy in 1894.

No. The Supreme Court overturned Marconi's patent in 1943, when it was proven that Tesla invented the radio years previous to Marconi.

No, the US Supreme Court did not make that claim. Read their judgement. It was a political decision, not one based on the work that Tesla had claimed to have done as against what Marconi had done. Marconi made the first wireless broadcasts. Tesla had no such record. Tut, tut, you'll catch on eventually.

It's just Tesla always gets shammed. The Zog always do the paperwork.

Anti-Semitism on show. How grand. So, how many Jews have you shunned this week? Bet you'll never visit Israel with that sort of attitude. Tut, tut.

Marconi didn't invent the radio. Edison didn't invent the light bulb. It's easy to compress complex histories into one sentence to help third graders know more about the fascinating world of inventions, but it is often misleading. Oh, and on that topic; the Wright Brothers didn't exactly “invent the plane” either. They are known for building and flying the first successful manned airplane, and their design built on hundreds of years of research into aviation. A major invention like radio is usually the result of many years of research and experimentation by quite a lot of people from all over the world.

The history of the radio began when James Clerk Maxwell theoretically proved in 1864 the existence of electromagnetic waves that could propagate through free space. Then, during the 1860s, Heinrich Rudolph Hertz conducted experiments to prove the existence of Maxwell’s electromagnetic waves, and he used what would later become the “radio” spectrum.

In 1893, Nikola Tesla unveiled his own system that ran on Hertz’s research, and proposed it could be used to power the world and communicate information. It was then that Jagadish Chandra Bose came into the picture. In 1894, he ignited gunpowder and rang a bell by manipulating microwaves in a public


What, then, did Guglielmo Marconi do? He noticed that most inventors of his time were not interested in working on a commercial wireless telegraphy system that utilized the power of radio waves. He then went on to build the first commercially successful radio transmission system. He took from the scientists, and gave it to the people.
