Nikola Tesla was a Serbian-American inventor, engineer, and futurist best known for his contributions to the development of alternating current (AC) electrical systems, wireless communication, and many other groundbreaking technologies. His work laid the foundation for modern electrical and communication systems.
The Tesla coil is a high-frequency transformer that produces high-voltage, low-current electricity. It works by using electromagnetic resonance to transfer energy wirelessly. Tesla used it to demonstrate wireless power transmission and to conduct experiments in electrical phenomena.
While Guglielmo Marconi is credited with the commercialization of radio, Tesla’s earlier patents and experiments in radio frequency transmission indicate he played a foundational role in the development of radio technology. In fact, the U.S. Supreme Court later recognized Tesla's patents in this field.
The Wardenclyffe Tower was Tesla’s attempt to create a global wireless communication and energy transmission system. Despite initial construction and promising experiments, the project was abandoned due to financial issues and lack of investor support.
