Using a magnet you can hover it over the cans.
1810 Peter Durand gets a patient from King George III for a tin-plated can as a food container. At the time cans were made of iron and coated with a thin layer of tin. They were only able to produce 60 cans a day. Today millions are made a day.
The can opener. The tin can was invented in the late 17 hundreds but it was not until the middle 18 hundreds that people invented something to open them. Before this, the cans were made of very thick iron and impervious to almost any opener except a hammer and chisel.

he invented the tab on the top of pop cans
In 1975, the laser printer and the first digital camera were invented. That was the year the push-through tab on drink cans was invented.
Aerosol spray cans were invented by Lyle David Goodloe and W. N. Sullivan in 1941.
The "can opener" was invented along with the "can" - cans had to be opened to be of any use! The first cans were invented around 1772 in the Netherlands. Some of the earliest cans were opened with a hammer and chisel. As canning became more popular a plethora of patents were taken out both for the canning process and for various means of opening them. The first can opener patent obtained was in 1855 in England and 1858 in the United States. I recall "keys" were very popular in my youth.
