As time marches-on, expectations grow ever higher. This has never been more evident than it is today – as is exemplified by the ever-dynamic world of technology. With the invention of the first practical telephone, Alexander Graham Bell opened-up communication in a way that the world had never before seen nor could have even dreamed-of. Bell was awarded the patent for his talkie-triumph on March 7, 1876…& the telephone has since metamorphosized many times over.
Although the basic premise of the telephone itself has never changed – as the device itself gets smarter, more convenient, & more multi-functional – consumer expectations increase with every new iteration. Long gone are the days when phones were used for, well…just talking. Today’s personal communication devices have more computing power packed inside of them than the Apollo 11 spaceship – which took our Astronauts to the moon & back.
Some Tech Trivia: Believe it or not, Alexander Graham Bell himself played an important role in the history of Video Conferencing – by first developing the concept in the late 1870s. The Bell Telephone Company – along with AT&T – then began actual work on Video Phones in the late 1920s.
In Germany in the 1930s, initial experiments with Video Conferencing began in earnest. Fast-forward to the early 1970s, when still photos were sent over phone lines – which was when AT&T introduced its “Picturephone” service to the public*. Although far removed from the technology of today, these rudimentary steps were the building blocks that went toward creating the current state of the Audio-Visual industry. My, how we have grown!
