Wi-Fi was invented by an accident!
A Australian scientist named John O'Sullivan was inspired by Stephen Hawking theory about volatile black holes and their next radio waves.
He started finding them and proved the right theory.
While doing so, he found that these weak signals were very difficult to distinguish from the larger background noise of the whole universe.
What are the signals?
These signals have traveled such extensive distances and very small and distorted by the gas and dust of the space they have passed.
This means that their waveform has changed from a sharp branch and is easy to identify, to a flat curve.
It was because of this that O'Sullivan and his studies, contemporaries had to work on creating a tool that could identify and filter specific radio waves.
After many difficult jobs, O'Sullivan and a colleague who was able to create a tool based on a mathematical formula will help them find these waves, blocking unrelated radio signals to identify these
However, they did not succeed in finding Black Hole's radio waves.
...
John O'sullivan has worked for CSIRO and is tasked to seek to communicate with computers without wires - a wireless system of some types.
Remembering his previous research into black holes and the tools he created to determine the wireless black hole wave, O'Sullivan returned to the tool he made earlier.
Using this device's mathematical formula, he was able to modify and adjust it, using it as a basis for Wi-Fi to search for weak and blurred radio signals in the most noisy environment.
This released and unintentional invention has won the CSIRO about $ 1 billion in royalties.
O'Sullivan was patented it in the first hometown in 1992, then later in the United States in 1996.
So thank you to Stephen Hawking to inspire John O'Sullivan accidentally giving us all Wi-Fi!
