Show BODY WIRELESS VEHICLE The Human Anatomy Used aa a Transmitter of Electrical Waves The body as a wireless telegraph transmitter and receiver was recently displayed by Prof Ovlngton of Boston Bos-ton Ho performed u number of experiments ex-periments with high potential and high frequency currents substituting bid assistants as-sistants body for the usual vertical conductor The current from the machine ma-chine passed through the body whence the energy wns radiated as waves lu the other Thee potential and frequency fre-quency of tne oscillations were much in excess of those employed commercially commer-cially and hence the waves radiated were exceedingly short It was Prof Tommaslnl of Geneva who first demonstrated dem-onstrated that the human body could be substituted successfully for an aerial of the same length and ca pacltly It Is not so good a conductor con-ductor as are tho metals but this is offset by tho fact that a current of high frequency penetrates the skin by a small fraction of a millimeter M 1 Emllo Guarini of Brussels actually sent messages through space by connection ft con-nection of one human body to the positive side of a spark gap and another I other human body to one terminal of the coherer |
