Thomas Edison invented the electric vote recorder on June 1, 1869. This was Edison's first patented invention and although he was very proud of it, his voice recorder was never used.

What was Thomas Edison's challenges?

Thomas Edison invented the vote recorder and it was rejected from people. People wanted an invention that was useful.


What has Thomas Edison invented?

Thomas Alva Edison invented or improvedthe telegraphthe phonograph (for playing music recordings)the electric motorthe light bulbthe movie cameraHere is a list of the main ones with dates:1868: An automatic vote recorder for legislatures.1869: Several telegraph devices.1871: Improvements in stock ticker technology.1874: Quadruplex telegraph for Western Union company, which transmitted four messages at the same time1875: The electric pen, an early copying device, and various telegraph inventions.1877: The phonograph (early recorded music player) and the carbon transmitter (a great improvement in phone technology).1879: A DC generator for electric lighting and the carbon filament lamp.1882-1883:A three-wire central station for distributing electric light, power, and heat in Brockton, Massachusetts.He discovered the "Edison effect," first called "Etheric Force", which was a "damper" or valve to control the flow of current.The carbon button which led to the diode.Electric waves in free space.1883: A three-wire central system for electric lighting in Sunbury, Pa.1886: An improved wax-recording phonograph called the graphophone.1881 - 1887:A system of wireless telegraphy to and from railway trains.A wireless system of communication between ships at sea and land.1887-1890:Improved the wax cylinder phonograph.Obtained over eighty related patents.Set up a commercial business to make and sell phonographs and records, including the machines to record and produce the records.1891:Several inventions to improve electric railways.The movie camera (Kinetoscope)1891-1900:A giant roller machine for breaking and crushing rock.The Fluoroscope screen for X-raysThousands of crystallizations of chemical salts.Discovered that crystals of Calcium Tungstate were highly fluorescent to the X-ray.Several improvements on the X-ray tube.1905: A new type of dictating machine, which let the speaker hear and make corrections.1907: The Universal Electric Motor to run dictating machines on all lighting circuits.1900 -1909: Many inventions on the ways to make pre-cast buildings.1900 - 1910: The steel alkaline storage battery.1910-1914: The diamond point reproducer and the "unbreakable" record, great improvements in his record playing phonographs.1912: The Kinetophone or talking movie picture.1913: Automatic correction device for the dictating machine.1914: The Telescribe, a phone with a built in recorder, that would record both sides of a phone conversation.1915: The first synthetic form of carbolic acid (C6H6O).Thomas Edison filed over a thousand patents for various inventions. Among them are the phonograph, electrical vote recorder, first electric generator, paraffin paper, electric pen, carbon rheostat, microtasimer and the electric chair.electric light bulbtelephonephonographmotion picture cameraThomas Edison filed over a thousand patents for various inventions.

Did thomas eddison invent the light bulb?

Thomas Edison was a person who was kicked out of school and was deaf in one ear, he invented many things such as: The Tin Foil Phonograph,camera,kinetoscope,vitascope,electrical vote,electric generator,paraffin paper,electric pen,electric chair and many more.


What was Thomas Edison's occupation?

THOMAS ALVA EDISON (1847-1931)Electric light bulb Without a doubt, the greatest inventor of the modern era has been Thomas Edison. Many of his over one thousand inventions have profoundly changed the lives of nearly everyone in the world. Thomas Alva Edison was born in Milan, Ohio on February 11, 1847. In 1854, his family moved to Port Huron, Michigan. There, "Al's" favorite hobbies were reading, and performing chemistry experiments in his basement lab. But his teachers considered young Edison a failure; and his mother soon decided to home-school him. Edison's first job (1859) was operating a newstand on the railroad that ran from Port Huron to Detroit. To make the trips more interesting, Edison installed a printing press and chemistry lab in a boxcar. In 1862, he learned to use a railroad telegraph. Edison then spent many years traveling around Canada and the US, working as a telegraph operator and doing scientific experiments in his free time. Finally, in 1869, he decided to become a full-time inventor. On June 1st of that year, Edison was granted his first patent (#90,646), for an electric voting machine. But no one wanted to use the machine, and Edison resolved never again to invent what would not sell. His next invention fared much better: an improved stock market tickertape machine (1869), which earned him an instant $40,000 [about $700,000 today]. With his friend Franklin T. Pope, Edison formed an electrical engineering firm, based in Newark, New Jersey. With Pope, and later alone, Edison eventually earned about 200 patents for telegraph systems and devices. In 1876, in Menlo Park, New Jersey, Edison founded his famous "invention factory." "The Wizard of Menlo Park" was a workaholic and a demanding employer, but he did not resent failures in the lab: "That's one more way it won't work, so we're closer to a solution." Edison's first great Menlo Park invention was the phonograph (1877), although he did not bring it to market for ten years. He was busy with his greatest project: a workable electric light system that would replace candles and gaslight forever, at home and in public. In 1878, Edison created his prototype incandescent light bulb: a thin strip of paper, attached to wires, enclosed in a vacuum inside a glass bulb. When electricity flowed into the paper "filament," it heated up, and glowed. The only problem was that the paper burnt out very quickly. After thousands of tests, an "Edison Pioneer," Lewis H. Latimer, found the optimal filament material: carbonized cotton thread (1897). Edison installed the first reliable, durable electric lights in his own labs, and later built the first public power station, in Manhattan's financial district (1882). However, Edison's DC-current system had only a three-mile range, and was later superseded by Westinghouse's and Tesla's AC-current system. By that time, Edison had built a new and much bigger research complex (now a National Monument) in West Orange, New Jersey. There his first project was to redesign his phonograph, in light of recent improvements by others. Edison soon marketed a wax-cylinder phonograph as a dictation machine (1888), and later, as a musical home entertainment system (1896). These commercial efforts were, by and large, failures, but Edison continued to refine his favorite invention into the 1920s. In 1889, an associate, William Dickson, working at Edison's direction, invented the celluloid-strip motion picture camera and projector (1889) --- whose silent movies were viewed inside the machine, through a peephole. Although Edison later broke with Dickson, George Eastman and others helped Edison to establish the basis of the motion picture industry. After 1911, Edison was mainly dissatisfied in his work, feeling that many of his ideas were being ignored or worse yet, stolen. Throughout the '20s, he also had poor health. He died on October 18, 1931, at the age of 84. In total, Edison accumulated 1,093 US patents. Only a few inventors have earned half as many. Edison inventions not mentioned above include: the printing telegraph, the electric "stencil pen," a magnetic mining process, an electrical torpedo, a synthetic rubber, and improved alkaline batteries, cement mixers, and microphones. It must be said that Edison used other inventors' ideas much more freely than he shared his own. For example, the wax cylinder phonograph was first patented by Chichester A. Bell and Charles Sumner Tainter (1886), whose offer of a joint venture Edison rejected; the disc "gramophone" was first patented by Emile Berliner (1887); and even the so-called "Edison Effect," the observed emission of electrons from a hot filament, was actually discovered by an Edison engineer named William J. Hammer (1883). But nothing can gainsay the tremendous effect that Edison's career as a whole has had on our everyday lives. By the volume, variety and spectacularity of his inventions, Edison more than any other person made it seem like no miracle was beyond the reach of modern American technology. As an inspiration to aspiring engineers and inventors, then as now, Edison is peerless. Indeed, above all others, as his Congressional Medal of Honor certificate declared: "He illuminated the path of progress by his inventions."
