Inspired by his scientific curiosity, Bell went on to create other new inventions, including the photophone in 1880. This first wireless telephone transmitted sound on a beam of light instead of electrical wires. It is the forefather of the cordless phone and 80% of today's telephone systems that use fiber optics.

Born in 1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland, Bell became an expert in sound and public speaking. His understanding of sound helped him to teach the deaf and then invent the telephone.

Bell was a man of vision. After the telephone's success, he wrote to his father about a future when friends converse with each other without leaving home. How often do you talk with your friends on the phone? Can you imagine how life would be different without it
