we all know the dude invented the light bulb we kind of remember the last bill press play and you certainly recognize name of the gentleman we linked to the phone but he named one inventor that was a female frowning and worrying I see well frown and worry no more he had the top ten innovations that the ladies deserve the credit for so ladies and gentlemen boys and girls let's take a trip through history and discover the stories behind ten amazing inventions don't forget to click subscribe and hit the notification bell to keep up to date
with all of our future uploads number 10 we start off the list with the ultimate social lubricant beer beer was invented nearly seven thousand years ago by the Sumerians although we don't have an exact date or the name of the inventor we do know that the first batch of beer brewers world women could be a great icebreaker the next time you're at a bar so you know invented beer number nine and number nine is the flat bottom paper bag what a flat bottom paper bag needs inventing and second what even is a flat bottom paper
bag well here it is before this there was this as you can see the old version paper bags were more like envelopes and were very inefficient it carried less and took more paper to make a lady by the name of Margaret Knight came along in 1867 and invented the process of making the paper bag that we know of today and innovations revolutionized the paperback industry by replacing the work of 30 people with one machine number eight where Mary Anderson came to New York in 1903 she noticed our drivers there on the roads there needed to
constantly lean out of the car and manually wipe their wing screens while this may have been a great way to getting some exercise while driving it was also a quick way to get yourself killed so Miss Andersen set her mind to inventing what we now know as the windscreen wiper she patented invention and presented it to the Malta industry but she was turned down as people didn't believe there was a future for a device wasn't until 20 years later for the first car with window wipers that used mary's basic design came on the market and
the rest is history number seven Josephine Catrin was rich in fact she was so rich there the biggest noise was the fact that the China was being damaged every time a workers washed it but Josephine wasn't going to meekly accept that sometimes things just get broken she was going to invent a machine that would automatically wash her dishes without anyone touching it so in 1886 with the help of a mechanic she created the first successful automatic dishwasher her invention not only has separate compartments for different things but also used pressurized Jets of soap water to
do the cleaning number six kevlar is a word familiar to all nine gamers as that thing that stops your character from dying five seconds into a first-person shooter but in the real world apart from being the key material for manufacturing bulletproof vests kevlar is also deployed widely in many other areas it is five times stronger than steel yet also five times lighter was invented in 1965 by chemists Hoss Stephanie was researching the applications of liquid crystalline polymers number 5 in the world of inventors there aren't many nicknames that can match the Sun Queen in terms
of elegance and power this is the nickname the scientific community has given to Marie attacks one of the inventors of solar power tilt is considered one of the founders of solar thermal storage systems and she was a prolific inventor of practical thermal devices number four before Cole idea was invented picking up the phone for like opening a box of chocolates but a lady called Shirley Ann Jackson decided to take away the fun of guessing and give us the choice to not pick up at all please leave a message after the tone Shirley Ann Jackson was
behind the invention of call ID in the 1970s she was also the first African American woman to receive a doctorate from MIT she was a brilliant physicist and the research also led to the invention of fax machines and solar cells ada lovelace was a mathematical genius she was so ahead over time that she invented what is widely considered to be the first computer program 80 years before the first modern computer was even built she had written an algorithm for computing machine called analytic machine in her notebook in the mid-1800s by a wide margin she was
truly the first ever computer programmer number 2 Grace Hopper was not only a real Admiral of the US Navy she was also an unsung hero in history of computing she helped to invent the first complier of support in simple terms the first computer program that could translate words instructions into code that computers could read if that's not enough for you she also coined the term bug as she literally discovered the real bug causing problems inside on computers number 1 Hedy Lamarr was a Hollywood starlet in the 1940s so perhaps the girls were saying but she
was beautiful and talented however fans who knew her only from the silver screen may not have a guess as she was also a brilliant inventor her most famous invention is frequency hopping a way of jumping around and radio frequencies in order to avoid a third party jamming although initially intended for military use frequency hopping was crucial to the development of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth the groundbreaking inventive growth of God at Oh star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame not many people can match that so that was a long list of names and inventions and I suppose
you're unlikely to remember them all don't worry if you take just one thing from this I hope it is that ladies can just be as good as lots in terms of inventions a long history of invention has already been written but new chapters can always be added in the future and what a future will be with the rise of the digital age more and more women are entering into the fields of science technology engineering and mathematics than ever before hallway is a key player in helping push for more women to join the stem field pushing
for women to get more opportunities in their work and helping close the gap of the digital gender divide so come with us on the journey for brighter future
