5 unique story creator of electricity "nikola tesla"

In contrast to Thomas Edison, Nikola Tesla figure would have been very rarely heard in the ear. His name was hardly found in school books the students country.
In fact, Nikola Tesla was not lost on Thomas Edison. He is an inventor, physicist, mechanical engineers, and electrical engineers from America.
In fact, about a hundred years ago, Nikola Tesla managed to create the first electrical system that is currently used to generate electricity in almost every home on Earth. Not one that many who refer to it as the creator of electricity or electrical wizard.

In addition to a great inventor, Nikola Tesla's life story is also filled with things that are unpredictable and interesting. 5 This is an example!


1. Had called the children of darkness
Date of birth of Nikola Tesla certainly not known for certain, historian himself stated Tesla was born around the 9th or July 10, 1856 in Croatia.
That is quite creepy, according to family legend, Tesla was born during a thunderstorm and severe lightning struck. Inevitably, the midwife who helped deliver the child Tesla said when it will become 'children of darkness'.
Do not want that to happen, the mother of Tesla immediately say if Tesla would not be a child of darkness, but rather a child of light. Sure enough, in the future Tesla who discovered the technology to deploy electricity, automatic, light on Earth.


2. Hate pearls
Not many people know if Tesla does not bear the sight of a pearl. He did not even want to talk to a woman who happens to wear pearl jewelry, even though his secretary.
The reason in both fear of pearls that was not clear. But many suspect Tesla hate pearl because it is very concerned about the style of dress. Therefore, when Tesla believed to be successful, one must be dressed like a successful person.
While doing the photo session was, Tesla is recognized very concerned poses to things other details in order to look perfect in front of the camera.


3. Can not forget
Scientists this one turned out to have a great ability of the brain, namely photographic memory. This capability can make a person always remembers to anything that he had heard or seen in a very long period of time, can be up to that person died.
Armed with that ability, Tesla is known remembering every word and images from books she had read or created.
Additionally, Tesla is also known to have a high level of imagination that could help him to imagine any case in the 3-dimensional shape.
This capability is helping Tesla escape from the fear of the nightmare he experienced as a child. Indeed, with a photographic memory capabilities, Tesla is difficult to forget the shadow of his nightmare since childhood. Therefore, one way to escape from the nightmare was another thing is to make a positive


4. Rival Thomas Edison
Initially, Tesla had worked for Thomas Edison as an electric generator designers. However, Tesla chose to stop later in the day to develop induction motors (AC). Induction motor is a machine producing electricity that moves due to the magnet. This technology is still widely used in the engine compressors, pumps, up to a drill.
On the other hand, Edison focus on developing electric motors manifold direct current (DC). DC motor is an electric motor that requires a supply voltage of direct current in the field coils to be converted into mechanical motion energy.
Differences in AC and DC technology is what makes many people think of Tesla and Edison as a rival. In fact, many people refer to them as Steve Jobs and Bill Gates the past.


5. Prediction emergence of smartphones
Based on a quote Nikola obtained by Big Think, revealed when the American had predicted the emergence of smartphones since 1926!
"We will be able to communicate with each other instantly, although unobstructed distances. Not only that, through television and the telephone we could see and hear each other perfectly like face to face, even though we are thousands of miles apart, and the tools we use for communication it would be very simple when compared to phones that we use today. One can even carry it in the pocket of his vest, "said Nikola Tesla in an interview when the magazine Collier in 1926.

Of Nikola description of future communication tool that is very similar to what we now call a smartphone. A prediction which was great considering it was said 89 years ago.
