What did Edison invent?

1. Tin foil phonograph-invented in 1877.

At that time, Edison found that the diaphragm in the telephone transmitter would vibrate with the sound, so he made an experiment with a short needle, and found that the speed of speaking could make the short needle vibrate accordingly, thus concluding that this vibration could of course emit the original sound, so he began to study the problem of sound reproduction. 187765438+In February, Edison made this invention public, which caused a great sensation in the world at that time.

2. Electric light (tungsten lamp)-The first electric light was not invented by Edison, but by chemist Humphrey David.

1879 10, Edison finally succeeded in manufacturing incandescent light bulbs with carbon fiber as filament and began mass production. Later, this kind of electric light was accepted by the American people. During this period, Edison constantly improved his technology and finally decided to use tungsten wire as the filament, which has been used ever since.

3. Movable film camera-invented in 1889.

This camera is driven by a motor, and the shutter shaft is connected to the phonograph. When the camera is running, the phonograph records sound and can take pictures continuously.

4. Movable film projector-invented in 189 1.

This projector uses an engine in front of the light source to make the film strip of continuous pictures rotate at high speed, thus creating the illusion of motion. The light source projects the image on the film onto the screen.

5. Movies with sound-invented in 19 10. It consists of a phonograph and a camera. The camera is connected to the phonograph so that the sound can be recorded when the camera is running. During the screening, the phonograph runs synchronously with the picture, so that the sound and image are synchronized.
