April 13, 2014Hedy Lamarr made up for her rather crummy name by being beautiful and brilliant. In fact, Ms. Lamarr was often referred to as “The most beautiful face in Hollywood” during the so-called Golden Age of the cinema (the later years of the first half of the 20th century, if you were wondering). She starred in dozens of films, and on the side she helped devise, invent and patent a method of radio wave transmission that would aid in the guidance of radio-guided torpedoes. Her “frequency hopping” concept is still the basis for many modern technologies, likely even at use in that fancy mobile phone of yours.
