🗽 Hedy Lamarr (November 9, 1914 – January 19, 2000), American actress, and inventor, born in Vienna, Austria. Her life is filled with legend – entering the film industry twice, experiencing six failed marriages, venturing into research for freedom amidst war, and posthumously being inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2014.
🧚 初初入行,崭露头角
🎼 海蒂·拉玛父亲是犹太银行家,母亲是钢琴家,让她从小接受了很好的教育,在16岁之前,她在大学中学习着通信专业的有关知识。
🎬 逐渐长大的海蒂喜欢上了表演行业,在被莱因哈特发掘后,她来到德国柏林进行了表演方面课程的学习。海蒂年纪轻轻没仔细看过剧本就接了她人生中意义非凡的一部戏《狂喜》。
那一年她18岁,在电影上映后没多久海蒂·拉玛就嫁给了富有的奥地利军火商曼德尔(Friederich Mandl),然后渐渐退出了演艺圈。
🧚 Early Career and Recognition
🎼 Hedy Lamarr's father was a Jewish banker, her mother a pianist, providing her with a good education. Before the age of 16, she studied communication-related subjects at university.
🎬 Growing up, Hedy developed a passion for the entertainment industry. Discovered by director Max Reinhardt, she went to Berlin, Germany, for acting courses. At the age of 18, she starred in the significant film 'Ecstasy,' making a pivotal move in her life.
🏃 逃离婚姻,涅槃重生
🔫 上世纪30年代,欧洲法西斯势力抬头,曼德尔支持纳粹并向他们出售军火,他们在研究无线电信号遥控鱼雷和无线通信干扰技术。
👑 当纳粹正式进入奥地利时,由于丈夫过分的占有欲以及对犹太人的迫害,海蒂利用迷药迷晕了女仆逃走了。1937年10月4日,海蒂到达好莱坞,并且出演了《海角游魂》这部电影,让看腻了金发碧眼的人们眼前一亮,也是这部电影的角色让海蒂得到了“世界上最美的女人”的称号。
🏃 Escaping Marriage, Rebirth
🔫 In the 1930s, as fascism rose in Europe, Lamarr's husband Mandl, a supporter of the Nazis, sold weapons to them, involving research on wireless signal-guided torpedoes and radio jamming technology.
👑 When the Nazis entered Austria, due to Mandl's possessiveness and persecution of Jews, Hedy drugged her maid and escaped. On October 4, 1937, she arrived in Hollywood, starring in 'Algiers,' earning her the title of the 'World's Most Beautiful Woman.'
💥 时逢战乱,投身救国
🛳️ 第二次世界大战期间,她被德国潜艇击沉盟军运输船的新闻所触动,海蒂向美国政府自告奋勇,想要参与设计军用无线通讯和鱼雷遥控系统,以便更精准地击中德军潜艇。
🎹 受到作曲家乔治·安赛尔(GeorgeAntheil)的钢琴演奏经验启发,很快他们两人就开发出了一种能够自动编码译码的抗干扰通讯设备。在1942年8月,海蒂和安赛尔的“跳频通讯技术”获得了美国的专利,编号为2292387,名称为“机密通讯系统”。
📡 1985年,美国一个小公司(现在的高通)在跳频技术的基础上,研发出了现在的CDMA通信技术。除了CDMA,WiFi、蓝牙也都是在跳频技术的基础上发展的。
💥 Wartime Contributions, Patriotism
🛳️ During World War II, moved by news of a German U-boat sinking an Allied transport ship, Lamarr volunteered to help the U.S. government design military communication and torpedo guidance systems for more accurate strikes against German submarines.
🎹 Inspired by composer George Antheil's piano-playing experience, they developed an anti-jamming communication device with automatic coding and decoding. In August 1942, Hedy and Antheil's "frequency hopping communication technology" received a U.S. patent, numbered 2292387, titled "Secret Communication System."
📡 In 1985, a small U.S. company (now Qualcomm), building on frequency hopping technology, developed the current CDMA communication technology. Beyond CDMA, WiFi, and Bluetooth also evolved based on frequency hopping technology.
💃 海蒂·拉玛曲折的一生诠释了“生命在于折腾”,她让我们看到了女性身上的坚强力量以及不服输的精神。
💃 Hedy Lamarr's tumultuous life exemplifies the saying 'life is about experimenting.' She showed us the strong force and indomitable spirit within women."
