Cellular phones, digital cameras, and satellite telecasts all owe their existence in part to the work of ten talented inventors.

Among the inventors are Reginald Fessenden who thought of ways to transmit a continuous wireless signal, John Connon, inventor of the panoramic camera, William Stephenson, inventor of the wire phone and top secret spy code named Intrepid, and Alexander Graham Bell, who, in addition to his most famous invention, the telephone, also created a way to send messages on a light wave.
