As a Hollywood film star in the 1930s and 1940s, Hedy Lamarr at one point was called "the most beautiful woman in the world." What she was less known for was her scientific intellect.
Lamarr had a natural curiosity about the world around her. As young as age 5, she would spend time taking apart and rebuilding her music box to understand how it worked. But her technical mind was overshadowed by her looks-at 16, she got her first film role and quickly became an international icon.
As her acting career continued to take off during World War II, Lamarr became restless, feeling that she should do more to contribute to the Allies' war efforts. Together with her friend Antheil, Lamarr came up with a groundbreaking new form of wireless communication known as spread spectrum(光谱).The concept was to create a wireless signal that could hop from frequency to frequency, making it impossible to track or jam.They received a patent for their technology in 1942, but the military refused to implement(实施) it in their war effort.
The technology sat unused for years, until one day the military revived it in the 1960s and the system "spread like wildfire."It became the backbone of Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS and a range of wireless communication mechanisms we rely on today.By the time the technology was implemented, Lamarr's patent had been due, and she never received a single payment for her revolutionary invention.
Hedy Lamarr played the role she was expected to play in Hollywood — a beautiful object to admire on the big screen.If she yielded to society's expectations in other ways, communication as we know it could look completely different today.
作为20世纪30年代和40年代的好莱坞电影明星,海蒂·拉马尔一度被称为“世界上最美丽的女人”。她不太为人所知的是她的科学智慧。
拉马尔对周围的世界有着天生的好奇心。5岁时,她就花时间拆开和重建她的音乐盒,了解它是如何工作的。但她的技术头脑被她16岁时的外表所掩盖,她获得了第一个电影角色,并迅速成为国际偶像。
随着她的演艺生涯在第二次世界大战期间继续腾飞,拉马尔变得焦躁不安,觉得她应该为盟军的战争努力做更多的贡献。拉马尔和她的朋友Anthil一起提出了一种开创性的新无线通信形式,称为扩频(光谱).其概念是创建一个可以从一个频率跳到另一个频率的无线信号,使其无法跟踪或干扰。1942年,他们获得了技术专利,但军方拒绝实施(实施) 在他们的战争努力中。
这项技术闲置了多年,直到有一天军方在20世纪60年代将其复兴,该系统“像野火一样蔓延”。它成为蓝牙、Wi-Fi、GPS和我们今天所依赖的一系列无线通信机制的支柱。当这项技术实施时,拉马尔的专利已经到期,她从未收到过一笔革命性发明的付款。
赫迪·拉马尔扮演了她在好莱坞应该扮演的角色——一个在大银幕上令人钦佩的美丽对象。如果她在其他方面屈服于社会的期望,我们所知道的沟通在今天可能会完全不同。
