Coffee Led To The Invention Of Webcams
The love of coffee has inspired many innovators – particularly in making variations of the beloved drink itself. Did you know, though, that a love of coffee is what led to the invention of webcams?
It’s true! In the early 90s, computer scientists at the University of Cambridge relied on that same drink that gets so many of us through the day to carry on their research – coffee. However, with many labs all reliant on one pot of coffee in one break room, scientists would often show up for a cup of coffee only to find the pot empty.
How could they make sure the pot was never empty without physically going to check it? Dr. Paul Jardetzky came up with a solution. He set up a camera to monitor the coffee pot, set it to take images three times a minute, and a team wrote software that allowed them to monitor the camera’s images on their internal computer network.
On November 22, 1993, the footage of that coffee pot was put on the internet. Dr. Martyn Johnson, another scientist at Cambridge, didn’t have access to the internal computer network that monitored the coffee pot. He developed the code to run it on the internet. Thus, the first webcam feed was born!
Thanks to Cafe Delirium, you don’t need to watch the coffee pot. You can just have delicious coffee brought to you through Doordash or Grubhub!
