German Inventions of the 18th and 19th Centuries
Reis Telephone
-Johann Philipp Reis created the Reis Telephone in October 1861.
-He constructed it by winding a coil of wire around an iron knitting needle and connecting that to a series of electrical boxes.
-It required very high current and produced weak sound that was a clicking.
-The receiver was very insensitive and was a current-sensitive device rather than a voltage-sensitive device.
