“What we now want is closer contact and better understanding between individuals and communities all over the earth, and the elimination of egoism and pride which is always prone to plunge the world into primeval barbarism and strife... Peace can only come as a natural consequence of universal enlightenment...” ― Nikola Tesla
I am Bryan Emond. I strive to bring equality to the planet. I want to influence how people think about our planet that way we can save it from ruin. Nikola Tesla had similar ideas and this makes him a huge influence on my life. He was also a very inspiring inventor and electrical engineer.
I have chosen to pursue this field because the overall health of our planet and our future generations is a grave concern of mine

With the influence of the major leaders in my field I feel like these 3 and a half years will go by super fast and I will be able to provide for others.
Born in what is now Croatia, Immigrated to the United States to become an Unsung Hero. His accomplishments of creating the alternating current (AC) electrical systems is what we are using today. The ideas in this mans head made some people believe he had gone mad with his futuristic experiments he started performing. Leaving this incredible man out of the spot light of history’s greatest leaders.
In my mind Nikola Tesla is a leader because he challenged the ideas that AC current wasn’t safe when everyone doubted him and it soon show the world that thinking clearly the logical approach is the AC over the DC. He was always discredited for what he did and it didn’t bother him. This shows his ambition to not accept defeat when it was clearly a matter of opinions and not fact.
Nikola Tesla gave us Alternating Current, X-Ray, Radio, and Remote Control
Nikola Tesla wanted to transmit electricity like radio waves, This was his way of giving back to all. We haven’t looked into Tesla’s research in this but I believe it’s something we will be in the near

His creativity was also something he was very good at. He had all sorts of experiments and made a lot of discoveries. He always had a positive outlook on life and what he was doing. He wanted to end war and unite the world with his inventions.
I set a good example for my friends with my positive attitude. I take the lead when others don’t know what to do. I am always trying to do the right thing. I desire change and I am always trying to learn new things which benefit not only myself, but everyone around me. I am creative and embrace the future.
With my creativity and intuition I can develop cleaner and more efficient ways to harness energy and make it available to everyone. Inspire others the desperate need for change and push the field of renewable energy to expand faster. I will also set an example for others by giving the energy to the places that really need it and share with the world what can not be created or destroyed.
I have learned a lot about myself from the assessments in my class. I discovered I study much better with background music. I am more of a hands on learner. I also found out ways to improve my areas that need work. This first class has made me motivated to learn and develop as a
In 1882, Nikola came up with the idea for a brushless AC motor and made his first sketches of it rotating electromagnets. He began working for the continental Edison Company in France designing and making improvements to the electrical equipment. Then in June 1884, Tesla relocated to New York City where he was hired by Thomas Edison to work at his Edison Machine Works. He and Edison worked alongside one another making improvements to Edison’s inventions. After several months they parted ways due to a disagreement over a
“Money does not represent such a value as men have placed upon it. All my money has been invested into experiments with which I have made new discoveries enabling mankind to have a little easier life.” (Politika, 1927) During his 86 years Nikola Tesla obtained around 300 patents worldwide for his inventions, while many inventions developed by Tesla were not patent protected. Tesla’s inventions ranged from alternating current motors to a World Wireless System which is a proposed telecommunications and electrical power delivery system and Teleforce which is a self-defense weapon system that used pellets or slugs that were accelerated to a high velocity in a vacuum chamber then fired out of nozzles that would aim at the target. (Glenn,
Tesla’s career as an inventor started when he was in his late twenties. He displayed his incredible understanding of electricity and physics when he created his first invention, the induction motor. The induction motor is a small, electric motor that has become a very useful machine. In fact, most household appliances run using Tesla’s induction motor (Vujovic 1). Score one for Tesla. Soon after he invented the induction motor, Tesla moved to America to try his luck at living the American dream. While in New York City, Tesla got the amazing opportunity to work for his hero, Thomas Edison. However, Tesla soon quit working for Edison due to some disagreements between the two inventors. And so with Edison and his men biting at Tesla’s heels, Nikola set out on his own to make a name for himself (Vujovic 1). Tesla soon became Edison’s greatest competitor. While tinkering in his lab with one of his inventions called the Tesla Coil, Tesla discovered that he could send and receive radio signals when his coils were tuned to the exact same frequency...
As James Levine is famous for saying, “I was lucky that I met the right mentors and teachers at the right moment.” To me, one of the greatest mentors of innovative scientific history was Nikola Tesla. That being said, if given the opportunity to spend the next year of my life in a different time period I would like to live during the year 1942 so I could work beside Tesla. This was the year before Tesla died, a time when he had experienced the full scope of his expertise and could impart that wisdom to me. My questions about his popularity would be answered in full. Questions about Tesla’s integrity could lead to the answer to the legendary disputes about what was rightfully his. Legends about genius inventions that could only be imagined
The Earth is not a piece of quartz - it’s like a stone with many imperfections and scratches, and though it retains its scratches, it attempts to heal them; it bandages its wounds. To heal a wound, though, it must be first isolated: and in the case of the world, it is literal flaw that resides with the mask of a wound - combated, though not incapacitated, by the innovators of the Earth. A telephone, refrigerator, microwave, civil rights and gender equality - not only technology, but even a concept as imperative as liberation or equality have altered the globe (as humans see it), for the better: technology has made life easier for humans, ideal rights and equality have been gifted to those that require it, and efforts have been exclaimed in order to protect the natural amenities that are taken for granted. The reason adhered to by the innovators, dedicated to creating the aforesaid circumstances, is rather simple: they endeavor as they do because of the profit that befits not only themselves, but the world in doing so. When Alexander Graham Bell and Antonio Meucci developed the telephone, they distributed communication among the masses (a profit), and thereby changed the globe for the better; that same reason is reflected throughout the ages: Percy Spencer, inventor of the microwave, gained favorable avail via his invention for not only himself, but the Earth as well. Thus, the innovators of the world retain that reason: they change things for the better because of the positive benefit that would befit doing so - the positive benefit for not only themselves, but the world. Nikola Tesla, one of those innovators, arguably fathomed that reason more than anyone. “Born on July 9, 1856, in Smijan, Croatia, Tesla was the child of a clergy...
All my money has been invested into experiments with which I have made new discoveries enabling mankind to have a little easier life,” Tesla (1927). This philosophy of Tesla hold true on both accounts, Tesla did make life easier for mankind and he did invest all his money attempting to accomplish that task. “Despite his accomplishments, however, Tesla died penniless and without the accolades that would he would ultimately earn over a century later,” according to Whipps (2014). Aside from the above quote which reminds us of how determined Tesla was, we have various technologies that current culture utilizes on an everyday basis which solidifies his importance on society. For example, Tesla is responsible solely for or developing the technology or methods which enable, alternating current, light, x-rays, radios, remote controls, electric motors, robotics, lasers, wireless communications and potential limitless free energy. An argument could be made that Tesla has had such a profound influence on our society that the inevitable switch to battery operated, fully automatized motor vehicles is led by a company which utilizes the brand name of
Today, I will be introducing you to my new invention, as well as giving you a look at myself and my previous inventions so that you will have a good perspective about how profitable your investment will end up being.
words Nikola Tesla are likly to summon up the image of a crackpot rather than
Over the four years in highschool, I made this commitment in trying my best. It all has had paid off now as I approach graduation with a weighted GPA of 3.8 and ranking of 4 in my class. My honor classes have made me think that I can achieve anything. Hours of studying and hours on homework assignments have led me to the point where I am today. I plan to use my knowledge to help and grow the community in the
His imagination allowed him identify a path to influence his change. Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovations Theory states “change becomes embedded after 5% accept it” (BCEE, 2017c, pp. 20-21). For Tesla to influence them, Seifer (1998) describes how Tesla met with the Editor of a publication called the Electrical World and published an article about his Alternating Current discovery. This was a step towards reaching his Early Adopters, who were likely to be fellow scientists and scholars. However, he needed to expand his scope to include the general population if he was to be successful in affecting change
If anyone is in need of any assistance, they can rely on me being the #1 choice. I'm always available unless asleep. Being reliable allows me to bond more with many different and new people. Hard-Working: I am a very hard worker I have Grit! A lot of people give up because the don't understand what they're doing, or just think they can't do it.
In Budapest, Mr. Tesla's first job was in a government telegraph engineering office, he designed his first creation, a telephone repeater, and developed a plan for a rotating magnetic field ("Nikola Tesla." Encyclopedia of World Biography, Gale). Tesla was also an employee in Edison's European business in Paris (Bailey). Suddenly, Tesla immigrated to the United States in 1884 ("Nikola Tesla." Encyclopedia of World Biography, Gale).
It must have been risky inventing them things. People might have said it will never work or he can't but he was devoted to make them things. He has opened our mind to no things and things that we can do. His quote is actually really close to what is today about technology. Another reason why I chose him was because most people in this world know the large facts about Einstein such as his famous theory of relativity and E=MC2, but I wanted to find out more accomplishments that he had over the course of his
... something to do with some kind of super technology. He is often cited in works of speculative fiction as an originator of strange theories and fantastical devices. Conspiracy theorists also bring his Unified Field Theory into their writings, stating that the work was taken by the secret cabals that control everything. As some of Tesla's work vanished after his death into the hands of the FBI, the truth or falsity of this idea cannot be determined.
I am compassionate, energetic, passionate, and optimistic; like the sun. I show my compassion by helping others if they need help; like helping grading papers for a teacher or putting things away or organizing things for them. I also try to help my peers with things they may need help with. I also show this by empathizing with my peers when they go through hard times. I show my energetic nature by getting excited easily and always being in a good mood.
