U.S. Physicist Visualized the Perception of SMS In 1909

Texting may be a benefit in today's world, but the idea was visualized more than a century ago. And, it was a original American physicist who had predicted about the moveable messaging service, like the SMS, via a hand-held device in the 'Popular Mechanics' magazine in 1909, its Technology Editor Seth Porges has claimed.

Nikola Tesla, the physicist and a mechanical engineer, whose name lives on at the electric car maker Tesla Motors, saw wireless energy as the only way to make electricity flourish, according to Porges.

Telsa wrote in the magazine that one day it would be probable to 'transmit wireless messages' all over the world and likely that such a hand-held device would be simple to use and one day everyone in the world would communicate to friends using it, Porges said. This would accompany in a new era of technology, Telsa wrote in the publication.

Nikola Tesla was able to foresee technology which is still in its emerging forms a
hundred years later. He talked a lot about his other great zeal, which was wireless power.
