Glamorous actress Hedy Lamarr was not just another pretty face - she was also a trailblazing inventor. Fascinated by science and eager to find a way to help the Allies during World War II, she devised a way to make radio signals “jump” between frequencies – a technique known as “frequency-hopping” – in order to prevent the signals from being jammed. With her partner, George Antheil, they received a patent for this technology on this day in 1942. Today, variants of Hedy Lamarr’s breakthrough invention are used in communication technologies like Bluetooth, GPS and WiFi. She is pictured here in 1938.
