Description
Looking for an image of Hedy Lamarr? You just found it!
Of all of the Hollywood movie icons of the 20th Century, Hedy Lamarr still fascinates people.
Not only was she a world class beauty (loved by both men and women), she was also a noted inventor. Here's what Wikipedia has to say about her:
At the beginning of World War II, Lamarr and composer George Antheil developed a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes, intended to use frequency-hopping spread spectrum technology to defeat the threat of jamming by the Axis powers. She also helped improve aviation designs for Howard Hughes while they dated during the war.Although the US Navy did not adopt Lamarr and Antheil's invention until 1957, various spread-spectrum techniques are incorporated into Bluetooth technology and are similar to methods used in legacy versions of Wi-Fi. Recognition of the value of their work resulted in the pair being posthumously inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2014.
Now you can celebrate her life by owning your your own beautifully restored image reproduction.
