Influential #1, inventing

Alexander Graham Bell was influential because he invented many things. Some of the things he invented were the graphophone, the photophone, the audio meter, a telephone probe, an induction and many more things. He was a prolific inventor of other devices. Bell also worked on the transmission of the human voice using vibrating membranes and an actual human ear. In 1880, the French Government awarded Bell the Volta prize in sound technology. Toward the end of Bell’s life he invented the tetrahedral kite. This is a kite that is capable of holding a human being. Also toward the end of his life he invented the hydrofoil boat that set the world speed record in 1918. He tried inventing with a development of the harmonic telegraph. This is a device that could send multiple messages over a single wire. Three days after he had gone to the patent office Bell tested a new transmitter. Watson was in the other room and clearly heard Bell summon him “Mr. Watson come here, I want you.” It was on June 2, 1875, that the critical break through happened through the phone.
