Hedy Lamarr, Brilliant Inventor Of Spread Spectrum Frequency Hopping
I am reposting this because, suddenly, there is lots of interest in my posts and my album on Hedy Lamarr, the extraordinarily brilliant inventor of Spread Sprectrum Frequency Hopping. Her keen mind plays an extremely important role and is a key factor in what you do on your mobile phone, pads, and computers over the internet. I am not even mentioning the importance for our defense. I remember as a child thinking how beautiful she is...
Please look, in my Album, at her other portraits, and, if you are technical, at her patent application, which was ignored for many years by the Navy...
I didn't know of her top secret patent during WW II, aka WW2.
Hedy Lamarr was so much smarter than anyone in the Navy during and for at least a decade or two after The War, that's WW II of course... (^_^)
I possibly may have to exclude Admiral Hyman Rickover, after the war. Did you know that the beautiful Ina Garten, the fabulous Chef, and Engineer worked for Rickover before opening "The Barefoot Contessa" on Long Island? I will have to do a series on her. She used her engineering experience to perfect recipes for her Deli.
This is my salute to my flickr friend, Stephanie Comfort...
Stephanie, please do a series in Ina Garten!
Hedy Lamarr's patent was only twenty years ahead of the US Navy. This is a mainstay of current mobile phone communication systems.
Read Hedy's patent here: www.google.com/patents/US2292387
Hedy Lamarr invented Spread Sprectrum Frequency Hopping to make a radio frequency control signal for submarines signal very difficult to jam. These techniques are part of every modern communication system. Apple's Bluetooth, is a possible example...
Hedy's role was unrecognized for many years!
