10. MICROPHONE HISTORY History In order to speak to larger groups of people, there was a desire to increase the volume of the spoken word. The earliest known device to achieve this dates to 600 BC with the invention of masks with specially designed mouth openings that acoustically augmented the voice in amphitheatres. [2] In 1665, the English physicist Robert Hooke was the first to experiment with a medium other than air with the invention of the "lovers' telephone" made of stretched wire with a cup attached at each end.

11. German inventor Johann Philipp Reis designed an early sound transmitter that used a metallic strip attached to a vibrating membrane that would produce intermittent current. Better results were achieved with the 'liquid transmitter' design in Scottish-American Alexander Graham Bell's telephone of 1876 – the diaphragm was attached to a conductive rod in an acid solution. [4] These systems, however, gave a very poor sound quality.Johann Philipp ReisAlexander Graham Bell [4]

12. DEFINITION OF MICROPHONE A microphone, colloquially mic or mike (/ˈmaɪk/), [1] is an acoustic-to-electric transducer or sensor that converts sound in air into an electrical signal. Microphones are used in many applications such as telephones, hearing aids, public address systems for concert halls and public events, motion picture production, live and recorded audio engineering, two- way radios, megaphones, radio and television broadcasting, and in computers for recording voice, speech recognition, VoIP, and for non-acoustic purposes such as ultrasonic checking or knock sensors./ˈmaɪk/ [1]transducersensorsoundelectrical signal telephoneshearing aidspublic address systemsmotion pictureaudio engineeringtwo- way radiosmegaphonesradiotelevision speech recognitionVoIPknock sensors
