The death of a computer mouse inventor at the age of 91
William Ingalish, one of the computer mouse inventors at the age of 91, died after his respiratory system stopped last July 26, and his wife confirmed to the media..
The engineer and inventor William Ingalish was born in 1929 in the US state of Kentucky, studied electrical engineering and then joined the American Navy.
In 1963, Ingech inven.
The use of the mouse became common until after two decades, when the use of home computers was hoping.
Bill Inglish - as he knew - became the first person to use the mouse when he built its nucle.
The idea appeared to Ingtalbart, describing it as just "notes", so it is due to the preference of innovation for Bill Inglich.
The first formula of the mouse was a wooden box with one button, under which two wheels were embedded at a 90 -degree angle between them, including two vertical and side movement..
"Our goal was to create a tool that could choose letters and words," Inglich said in a conversation in 1999..
The inventors asked computer users to experience the use of the mouse, as well.
The two found that the mouse was very preferred, and they searched for it, but it was ignored for years.
The mouse was publicly presented for the first time in 1968, and it was also tried with a video conference and the processing of texts on the computer and links such as what we use on the Internet these days..
And when Ingech was asked decades later, whether this was a milestone or a birth in the history of modern computer, his response was: "Certainly, there is no argument in that.".
Some attribute the name tool to the mouse to its size and the wire package similar to the tail at the end of it.Others believe that the reason is that the indicator was called (Kat), that is, the cat in English, and it seems as if it is chasing the new tool in its movements.
It is also attributed to Ingaleish inventing the graphic program used in all modern computers.
