Who Invented The Light Bulb?

In 2018 the LED lighting market was worth almost $52 billion and is expected to reach over $112 billion by 2024. But 200 years before LEDs were a multibillion-dollar industry, and decades before Edison showed up, light bulbs were an idea just starting to enter the minds of curious scientists.
They may look the same, but the lights of today are almost nothing like those of yesterday. Watch the video to find out more about the transformation of the light bulb.

A black light works by producing UVA light, or ultraviolet light, that we cannot see."

    Joseph Swan was using carbon filaments back in 1850, with a patent granted back in 1860 using such a filament in a partial vacuum. He had a work, demonstrated carbon filament lamp in February 1879 to an audience of 700 and obtained a patent for that in 1880. In 1880, he gave a lecture illuminated by his electric light, be first public room to do so. Swann's house, Underhill, was the first domestic building to be illuminated by incandescent light. In short, whilst the competition was close, Swann go there first.

    The Next Step..., How do we come to the realization that some level of darkness at nighttime is required for the health & well-being of human beings as well as wildlife ?? The LAST thing that we need outdoors at night is ARTIFICIAL Blue Light Wavelengths. It messes with our Natural Night Vision as well as our Circadian Rhythms. We need to be mindful of how Over-Illumination could negatively impact the natural world that we depend so much on. We need to Shield our Outdoor lighting to avoid causing Light Trespass, Light Spillage & Light Pollution..., Shield it so that you don't see the light source, only the light produced. We need to use "warmer" color temperatures(Kelvin/CCT/SPD) of never more than 2700K. We need to use ONLY the intensity of light that we need Not, overdo it. And when no one's around to need the light, we need to shut it off. We must also realize that excessive lighting does absolutely Nothing to deter crime. If that were the case then, there would be nearly Zero crime during daylight hours and gas stations would be amongst the Safest places on earth(and we all know from watching the news that, that Isn't the case).

    Just like the telephone and a few others, the light bulb was invented in Canada. The telephone was invented and built in Canada but the patent was filed in the United States. The light bulb had many first iterations, but the light bulb we know today came from the designs of Canadians Henry Woodward and Matthew Evans. They sold their design to Edison who then used his expertise to create a functioning model.

    wild man Those products were built in America by Canadian people. Basketball and the Telephone were conceived in USA. The people who did it were born in Canada. Credit of product creation begins in location it was done not where the person was born. By your logic, all Apple iPhones, iPads and other i-Products were built in Syria. This is because Steve Jobs was born in Syria. However, that is not true. Mr. Jobs created those concepts and products in the USA so those products are credited as being initially products of the USA.

    @@darkshadowsx5949 Green is a primary colour as it's one of the three colour receptors in the human eye (the other being red and blue). That's why screens are described as RGB. What painters might call primary colours are no such thing. That's because paint is subtractive, not additive. It can only filter out a colour, it can't create them. Hence the colours in a simple inkjet printer are cyan, magenta and yellow. Cyan ink filters out the red leaving green & blue, magenta filters out green leaving red & blue and yellow filters out blue leaving red & green. Hence mix yellow and magenta and only green remains. In real life, it's not so simple in that the eye's colour receptors are not tuned to one wavelength of light. Instead the three have overlapping curves of sensitivity against wavelengths. Also, pigments are not pure either. However, in the big picture that's the way it works. Paints/pigments are subtractive and they do not have true primaries.

For many they are also seen as the best of both worlds consuming a little bit less energy than classic incandescents for the same amount of light yet having all the qualities we like of incandescent bulbs and none of the disadvantages that comes with fluorecents and LED and producing one of the most pleasant colour temperature for artificial lighting only slightly whiter than incandescents.

    Lewis Howard Latimer In 1882, he received a patent for inventing improvements to the Process of Manufacturing Carbons 252386 for light bulbs. His idea was to protect the filaments in a cardboard envelope preventing the carbon from breaking or changing shape during the intense lighting process. The significance of these improvements allowed for a reduction in time to produce and an increase in quality, his process set the standard for over 20 years. In 2006, he was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame for his Process of Manufacturing Carbons. Mr. Latimer was issued 7 U.S. patents.

    Interesting how they refuse to name Tesla's contribution just imply him with a picture but not name him with the fosforescent and fluorescent lights he introduced at the Chicago world's fair with Westinghouse.

    We need the Inventions of Tesla’s back. But anyways, LED’s are great. One of the best inventions pretty much because they use so little energy and last so long. Meaning as well that because of such little energy use, we can use them for solar lights. Which has really made life great because I can light up an entire area with just solar. LED’s will be the last light technology needed unless we can really develop something better. We really have come far as a civilization

    to be able to make Nikola Tesla, a natural born genius, went trough all that public hate, lonely life and poverty, at the same time for many years, even up till now, so many people still refuse to acknowledge Tesla's contribution to technology, ....is actually works of a genius

    I really don't like LED lighting. I love it when I come across old incandescent 40 - 100 watt globes and use them in a lamp to light a room....such a different feel of lighting. They only last a year or two but they're great. Just getting hard to come by now.
