When and how was the Morse code invented?

Answer 1

Samuel F.B. Morse, with the assistance of Alfred Vail, invented Morse Code in 1835 when, as a professor of arts and design at New York University, he proved that signals could be transmitted by wire. Originally, Morse Code was a series of written codes on a strip of paper, but in 1836, the device used to produce the written codes was modified to emboss the paper with dots and dashes, which he modestly called Morse's Code.

The message sent as the first public demonstration was "What hath God wrought".

Answer 2

A character code invented by Samuel Morse it is called the Morse code and it was invented in 1844.

It was replaced by a simplified International Morse code that is easier to use in 1865.

Answer 3

While a professor of arts and design at New York University in 1835, Samuel Morse proved that signals could be transmitted by wire. He used pulses of current to deflect an electromagnet, which moved a marker to produce written codes on a strip of paper - the invention of Morse Code. The following year, the device was modified to emboss the paper with dots and dashes.

Answer 4

Morse code was invented as a way to transmit messages over long distances electronically. Samuel Morse devised a system of communication using electric pulses called dots and dashes. These corresponded to short and long signals entered at one end of a communication device and reproduced at the other in the form of audible tones. A tone or series of tones represented a letter. Messages could then be transmitted from one location to another over electric lines that were stretched between "telegraph stations". This development took place between the mid to late 1800's.

Answer 5

Samuel Morse began experimenting with the telegraph around 1836. In his initial experiments, he transmitted signals which represented numbers and used a dictionary to look up the words represented by the numbers. That method was efficient, but proved to be impractical. In February, 1838, Morse's associate, Alfred Vail, wrote in a letter to his father, "Professor Morse has invented a new plan of an alphabet, and has thrown aside the Dictionaries".
