Eugene Polley, mainjiniya wa makina wochokera ku Chicago, adapanga remote yoyamba ya TV mu 1955, imodzi mwa zida zomwe zimagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri padziko lonse lapansi.
Polly anali mainjiniya wa ku Chicago yemwe anadziphunzitsa yekha ndipo anayambitsa remote ya TV mu 1955.
Amaganiza za tsogolo lomwe sitiyenera kudzuka pa sofa kapena kugwedeza minofu iliyonse (kupatula zala zathu).
Polly anakhala zaka 47 ku Zenith Electronics, kuyambira pa ntchito yosungiramo katundu mpaka kufika pa kukhala katswiri wopanga zinthu zatsopano. Wapanga ma patent 18 osiyanasiyana.

Chinthu chofunika kwambiri chomwe adachita chinali chowongolera cha TV chopanda zingwe choyamba, chotchedwa Flash-Matic. Zipangizo zina zakale zowongolera zidalumikizidwa ku TV.
Flash-Matic ya Polly inalowa m'malo mwa ukadaulo wokhawo wolamulira TV womwe unkadziwika panthawiyo, wa zaka 8.
Kuyambira pachiyambi cha wailesi yakanema, mtundu uwu wakale komanso wosadalirika wa ntchito ya anthu wakhala ukuyendayenda mosasamala, kusintha njira motsogozedwa ndi akuluakulu ndi abale ndi alongo okalamba.
Flash-Matic imaoneka ngati mfuti ya sayansi. Amalamulira chubucho ndi kuwala kowala.
“Ana akasintha njira, nthawi zambiri amafunikanso kusintha makutu awo a kalulu,” akutero Zenith wachiwiri kwa purezidenti wamkulu komanso katswiri wa mbiri ya kampani, John Taylor.
Monga anthu mamiliyoni ambiri aku America azaka zopitilira 50, Taylor adagwiritsa ntchito ubwana wake akungoyang'ana TV yabanja kwaulere.
Mu lipoti la atolankhani la pa June 13, 1955, Zenith adalengeza kuti Flash-Matic ikupereka "mtundu watsopano wa wailesi yakanema".
Malinga ndi Zenith, chinthu chatsopanochi "chimagwiritsa ntchito kuwala kochokera ku chipangizo chaching'ono chooneka ngati mfuti kuti chiyatse ndi kuzimitsa TV, kusintha ma channel, kapena kuletsa malonda aatali."
Chilengezo cha Zenith chikupitirira kuti: “Mtambo wamatsenga (wopanda vuto kwa anthu) umagwira ntchito yonse. Palibe mawaya opachikika kapena mawaya olumikizira omwe amafunika.”
Zenith Flash-Matic inali remote control yoyamba ya TV yopanda zingwe, yomwe idayambitsidwa mu 1955 ndipo idapangidwa kuti izioneka ngati mfuti ya ray ya nthawi yamlengalenga. (Jean Pauly Jr.)
"Kwa anthu ambiri, ndi chinthu chomwe chimagwiritsidwa ntchito kwambiri m'moyo watsiku ndi tsiku," wopanga zinthu yemwe adapuma pantchito kwa nthawi yayitali adauza Sports Illustrated mu 1999.
Masiku ano, zinthu zatsopano zake zitha kuoneka kulikonse. Anthu ambiri ali ndi ma remote angapo a pa TV kunyumba, ambiri muofesi kapena kuntchito, ndipo mwina imodzi mu SUV.
Barbara Walters akusiya uthenga wonena za 'kudzipatula' kwake ali mwana komanso zomwe zidamupangitsa kuti apambane
Koma ndani amene amakhudza kwambiri miyoyo yathu tsiku lililonse? Ulemu wa Eugene Polley chifukwa chopanga remote ya pa TV unapita kwa mainjiniya wopikisana naye poyamba, kotero anayenera kumenyera nkhondo kuti apeze cholowa chake.
Onsewa ndi ochokera ku Poland. Mwana wa wopanga zinthu, Gene Polley Jr., adauza Fox Digital News kuti Veronica adachokera m'banja lolemera koma adakwatira nkhosa yakuda.
Wopanga makina oonera pa TV, Eugene Polley, ndi mkazi wake Blanche (Willy) (kumanzere) ndi amayi ake Veronica. (Mwachilolezo cha Gene Polly Jr.)
“Anamaliza kupikisana paudindo wa bwanamkubwa wa Illinois.” Anadzitamandiranso za ubale wake ndi White House. “Abambo anga anakumana ndi purezidenti ali mwana,” anawonjezera Jin Jr.
"Abambo anga ankavala zovala zakale. Palibe amene ankamuthandiza pa maphunziro ake" - Gene Polley Jr.
Ngakhale kuti bambo ake anali ndi zolinga komanso ubale wabwino ndi anthu ena, banja la Polly linali ndi ndalama zochepa.
“Abambo anga ankavala zovala zakale,” anatero Polly wamng’ono. “Palibe amene ankafuna kumuthandiza pa maphunziro ake.”
Kumanani ndi Mamerika yemwe adayambitsa bala yoyamba yamasewera ku America ku St. Louis.Louis: Jimmy Palermo, yemwe anali katswiri wa nkhondo yachiwiri yapadziko lonse
Zenith, yomwe idakhazikitsidwa ku Chicago mu 1921 ndi gulu la ogwira nawo ntchito kuphatikiza Eugene F. McDonald, yemwe anali msilikali wakale wa US Navy pa Nkhondo Yadziko Lonse Yoyamba, tsopano ndi gawo la LG Electronics.
Khama, luso lokonza zinthu, ndi luso lobadwa nalo la makina linakopa chidwi cha mtsogoleri wa asilikali.
Pamene dziko la United States linalowa mu Nkhondo Yachiwiri Yapadziko Lonse m'ma 1940, Polly anali m'gulu la mainjiniya a Zenith omwe ankapanga pulogalamu yayikulu ya zida za Amalume Sam.
Polly anathandiza kupanga ma radar, magalasi oonera usiku, ndi ma fuse oyandikira, omwe amagwiritsa ntchito mafunde a wailesi kuphulitsa zida zankhondo patali kuchokera pa cholinga.
Pa Nkhondo Yachiwiri Yapadziko Lonse, Polly anathandiza kupanga ma radar, magalasi owonera usiku, ndi ma fuse oyandikira, zida zomwe zimagwiritsa ntchito mafunde a wailesi kuyatsa zipolopolo.
Chikhalidwe cha ogula zinthu ku America pambuyo pa nkhondo chinakula kwambiri, ndipo Zenith anali patsogolo pamsika wa wailesi yakanema womwe ukukula mofulumira.
Wosewera wodziwika bwino pa kuvina ndi nyenyezi, Whitney Carson, waulula za kugonana kwa mwana wachiwiri wa mwamuna wake, Carson McAllister.
Komabe, Admiral MacDonald ndi m'modzi mwa omwe adakwiya ndi vuto la wailesi yakanema: kusokonezeka kwa malonda. Analamula kuti pakhale remote kuti athe kuletsa phokoso pakati pa mapulogalamu. Zachidziwikire, akuluakulu ankhondowo adawonanso kuthekera kopeza phindu.
Polly adapanga makina okhala ndi wailesi yakanema yomwe inali ndi ma photocell anayi, imodzi pakona iliyonse ya console. Ogwiritsa ntchito amatha kusintha chithunzi ndi mawu powalozera Flash-Matic pa photocell yofanana yomwe yamangidwa mu TV.
Eugene Polley ndiye adapanga wailesi yakanema yowongolera kutali mu 1955 ya Zenith. Mu chaka chomwecho, adapempha chilolezo cha patent m'malo mwa kampaniyo, chomwe chidaperekedwa mu 1959. Chili ndi njira ya ma photocells olandirira zizindikiro mkati mwa console. (USPTO)
"Patatha sabata imodzi, mkulu wa asilikali anati akufuna kuigwiritsa ntchito. Inagulitsidwa kwambiri - sanathe kukwaniritsa zomwe anthu ankafuna."
"Mtsogoleri wa asilikali McDonald anasangalala kwambiri ndi umboni wa Polly wa Flash-Matic wa lingaliro," akutero Zenith m'nkhani ya kampani. Koma posakhalitsa "analangiza mainjiniya kuti afufuze ukadaulo wina wa m'badwo wotsatira."
Remote ya Polly ili ndi zofooka zake. Makamaka, kugwiritsa ntchito kuwala kwa kuwala kumatanthauza kuti kuwala kozungulira, monga kuwala kwa dzuwa komwe kumadutsa m'nyumba, kungawononge TV.
Chaka chimodzi kuchokera pamene Flash-Matic inayamba kugulitsidwa, Zenith adayambitsa chinthu chatsopano cha Space Command, chopangidwa ndi mainjiniya komanso wopanga zinthu zambiri Dr. Robert Adler. Ichi ndi chosiyana kwambiri ndi ukadaulo, pogwiritsa ntchito ultrasound m'malo mwa kuwala kuyendetsa machubu.
Mu 1956, Zenith adayambitsa mbadwo watsopano wa ma remote a pa TV otchedwa Space Command. Adapangidwa ndi Dr. Robert Adler. Unali woyamba kugwiritsa ntchito remote control ya "clicker", m'malo mwa ukadaulo wogwiritsa ntchito remote control wopangidwa ndi mainjiniya a Zenith Eugene Polley. (Zenith Electronics)
Space Command "yamangidwa mozungulira ndodo zopepuka za aluminiyamu zomwe zimapanga phokoso lapadera la ma frequency apamwamba zikamenyedwa kumapeto ... zimadulidwa mosamala kwambiri kutalika kwake ndipo zimapanga ma frequency anayi osiyana pang'ono."
Iyi ndi njira yoyamba yolumikizira kutali ya "clicker" - phokoso la kudina pamene nyundo yaying'ono igunda kumapeto kwa ndodo ya aluminiyamu.
Posakhalitsa Dr. Robert Adler analowa m'malo mwa Eugene Polley pamaso pa makampani opanga mapulogalamu ngati woyambitsa TV remote control.
Bungwe la National Inventors Hall of Fame limati Adler ndiye amene anayambitsa remote yoyamba ya pa TV "yothandiza". Polly si membala wa Inventors Club.
"Adler anali ndi mbiri yoyembekezera kugwira ntchito limodzi ndi mainjiniya ena a Zenith," akutero Polly Jr., ndikuwonjezera kuti, "Zinakwiyitsa kwambiri abambo anga."
Disembala, lero m'mbiri. Pa Disembala 28, 1958, a Colts adagonjetsa a Giants mu "Masewera Abwino Kwambiri Padziko Lonse" a NFL Championship.
Polly, injiniya wamakina yemwe anadziphunzitsa yekha popanda digiri ya ku koleji, anachoka pa malo osungiramo zinthu zakale.
“Ndimadana kumutcha kuti kolala yabuluu,” akutero katswiri wa mbiri yakale Zenith Taylor. “Koma anali injiniya wamakina woopsa, munthu woipa wa ku Chicago.”
