(1914)
• Accidential creation
• Named it "X", meaning
"unknown" Rays

9. ROBERT ELLIOT KAHN
• Robert Elliot Kahn is an American
electrical engineer, who, along with
Vint Cerf, first proposed the
Transmission Control Protocol and
the Internet Protocol, the
fundamental communication
protocols at the heart of the
Internet.
15. HANS CHRISTIAN OERSTED
Aluminium was first isolated by Hans
Christian Oersted in 1825 who reacted
aluminium chloride (AlCl3) with
potassium amalgam (an alloy of
potassium and mercury). Heating the
resulting aluminium amalgam under
reduced pressure caused the mercury
to boil away leaving an impure sample
of aluminium metal.
16. ALUMINUM (PURPOSES)
Aluminium is used in a
huge variety of products
including cans, foils,
kitchen utensils, window
frames, beer kegs and
aeroplane parts.
18. ALUMINUM (IMPACTS)
• Human - may cause
Alzheimer's disease and
breast cancer.
• Society - recognised as a
toxic agent in aquatic and
terrestrial ecosystems.
- greenhouse gas
emission.
20. PERSONAL COMPUTER
• Personal computer works
by combining input, storage,
processing, and output. All
the main parts of a computer
system are involved in one of
these four processes.
29. EMAIL
• It simply allows you to
send and recieve
messages to and from
anyone with an email
address, anywhere in
the world.
30. RAY TOMLINSON
• Invented and Developed
EMAIL in 1972 by creating
it at ARPHANET's
networked Email system
• It became an important
mode of communication
today.
33. SMARTPHONES
• As smartphones have
evolved, app developers
have found new, ingenious
ways to ise hardware and
wireless connectivity to
make information instantly
available to users.
34. STEVE JOBS
• The person who
invented the
smartphone in the
world.
37. SMARTPHONES (IMPACT)
It is true that the smartphone has a sizeable impact on
society and other aspects of life. Smartphone has
impacted almost all walk of human life. The prominent
areas, where impacts of Smartphone are obvious
include business, education, health, and social life.
Mobile technology has drastically changed the cultural
norms and individual behaviors. Smartphone use in
society by educating users on how to use Smartphones
smartly.
39. RADAR
• Is a detection system
that uses radio waves to
determine the range, angle,
or velocity of objects.
40. RADAR
• Radar was developed
secretly for military use by
several nations in the
period before and during
World War II.
41. HEINRICH HERTZ (1886)
• Heinrich Hertz started
with experiments by in late
19th century that showed
that radio waves were
reflected by metallic
objects.
42. CHRISTIAN HÜLSMEYER (1904)
• German inventor who
first used them to build a
simple ship detection
device intended to help
avoid collisions in fog
(Reichspatent Nr. 165546).
