UBill Hemmer, umsasazi-ndaba kunye nomphathi we-“America's Newsroom”, uqhuba iziqendu ezininzi ze-“Meet the Americans…” kwiFox Nation, olu luhlu lweendaba zedijithali zeFox News oluphumeleleyo.
Ushiye ilifa lemisebenzi yokuzonwabisa eyonwatyelwa zizigidi zabantu yonke imihla, rhoqo iiyure ezininzi.
UPauley wayengunjineli ozifundise ngokwakhe waseChicago owasungula i-remote control kamabonakude ngo-1955.
Uphupha ngekamva apho singasayi kuze siphume esofeni okanye sishukumise izihlunu (ngaphandle kweminwe yethu).
Uthotho olutsha lweFox Nation oluthi “Meet the Americans” lubalisa amabali abantu baseMelika abaqhelekileyo abasinike izinto ezintsha ezingaqhelekanga.
UPolley wasebenza kwiZenith Electronics kangangeminyaka engama-47, esuka ekubeni ngumthengisi waya kuba ngumqambi onobuchule. Waphuhlisa amalungelo obunikazi ali-18 ahlukeneyo.

Eyona nto ibalulekileyo awayenzayo yayikukusebenzisa i-remote control yokuqala yeTV engenazingcingo, eyaziwa ngokuba yiFlash-Matic. Ezinye izixhobo zokulawula zangaphambili zazifakwe kwiTV.
I-Flash-Matic kaPolly yathatha indawo yetekhnoloji yethelevishini elawulwa kude kuphela eyayisaziwa ngelo xesha—kwabantwana abaneminyaka esi-8 ubudala.
I-Flash-Matic ifana nompu we-ray ovela kwinoveli yesayensi. Ilawula ityhubhu isebenzisa umqadi wokukhanya.
Olu hlobo lomsebenzi oluphezulu, oluhlala luyingozi, luye lwabakho ukususela ekuqaleni komabonwakude, luhambahamba ngokungathandi, lutshintsha amajelo ngokweemfuno zabantu abadala kunye nabantakwabo abadala.
“Xa abantwana betshintsha izitishi, badla ngokunyanzeleka ukuba balungise neendlebe zabo zoonogwaja,” kuqhula uJohn Taylor, usekela-mongameli omkhulu kunye nombhali-mbali kwiZenith.
Njengezigidi zabantu baseMelika abangaphezu kweminyaka engama-50 ubudala, uTaylor uchithe ubutsha bakhe edlala kumabonakude wosapho simahla.
I-Zenith Flash-Matic yayiyeyona remote control yokuqala yeTV engenazingcingo, eyakhutshwa ngo-1955 kwaye yenzelwe ukufana nesibhamu se-ray esisetyenziswa kudala. (UGene Pauley Jr.)
UZenith wabhengeza kwingxelo yabezindaba ngomhla we-13 kweyeSilimela ngo-1955 ukuba iFlash-Matic inika “uhlobo olutsha olumangalisayo lwethelevishini.”
UZenith uthi le mveliso intsha “isebenzisa ukukhanya okuvela kwisixhobo esincinci esimile okwempu ukuvula okanye ukucima izixhobo, ukutshintsha iziteshi, okanye ukuvala izandi ezinde zorhwebo.”
Ingxelo yeZenith iyaqhubeka: “Umlingo (ongenabungozi ebantwini) wenza wonke umsebenzi. Akukho zingcingo ezixhonyiweyo okanye iingcingo ze-jumper ezifunekayo.”
“Kubantu abaninzi, yeyona nto isetyenziswa rhoqo kubomi bemihla ngemihla,” utshilo lo mqambi osele ethathe umhlala-phantsi kwiSports Illustrated ngo-1999.
Namhlanje izinto ezintsha azenzileyo ziyabonakala kuyo yonke indawo. Uninzi lwabantu lunee-remote ezininzi zeTV ekhaya, ngakumbi eofisini okanye emsebenzini, mhlawumbi enye kwi-SUV yabo.
Kodwa ngubani onempembelelo enkulu kubomi bethu yonke imihla? U-Eugene Polley kwafuneka alwele ilifa lakhe xa udumo awalufumanayo ngokudala i-remote yeTV lwaya kwinjineli ekhuphisana naye.
Zombini zivela ePoland. UGene Polley Jr., unyana womqambi, uxelele iFox Digital News ukuba uVeronica wayevela kwintsapho etyebileyo kodwa watshata "negusha emnyama."
Umsunguli we-TV remote control u-Eugene Polley kunye nomkakhe uBlanche (uWillie) (ekhohlo) kunye nonina uVeronica. (Ngobubele bukaGene Pauley Jr.)
“Wagqibela egqatsela isikhundla sokuba ngurhuluneli wase-Illinois.” Wade waqhayisa ngobudlelwane bakhe neWhite House. “Utata wadibana nomongameli esengumntwana,” wongezelela uJin Jr.
“Utata wayenxiba iimpahla ezisetyenzisiweyo. Akukho mntu wayefuna ukumnceda afumane imfundo.” – Gene Pauley Jr.
Nangona uyise wayenamabhongo nobudlelwane, imali yosapho lakwaPaulie yayincinci.
“Utata wayenxiba iimpahla ezisetyenzisiweyo,” utshilo uPolly omncinci. “Akukho mntu wayefuna ukumnceda afumane imfundo.”
Dibana nomMelika owaseka ibha yezemidlalo yokuqala yaseMelika eSt. Louis. Louis: Igqala leMfazwe Yehlabathi yesiBini uJimmy Palermo
IZenith yasekwa eChicago ngo-1921 liqela lamaqabane aquka igqala leMfazwe Yehlabathi yokuQala yase-US Navy u-Eugene F. MacDonald, kwaye ngoku licandelo le-LG Electronics.
Umsebenzi kaPolly onzima, izakhono zokulungelelanisa izinto, kunye nobuchule bendalo bokusebenza ngekhompyutha kwatsala ingqalelo yomphathi wakhe.
Xa iMelika yangena kwiMfazwe Yehlabathi yesiBini ngeminyaka yoo-1940, uPolley wayeyinxalenye yeqela lobunjineli leZenit elaliphuhlisa iinkqubo zezixhobo zikaMalume uSam.
UPolley wanceda ekuphuhliseni i-radar, izibuko zokubona ebusuku, kunye nee-proximity fuses, ezazisebenzisa amaza erediyo ukutshisa iimbumbulu kumgama omiselweyo ukusuka kwindawo ekujoliswe kuyo.
Ngexesha leMfazwe Yehlabathi yesiBini, uPolley wanceda ekuphuhliseni i-radar, izixhobo zokubona ebusuku, kunye nee-proximity fuses—izixhobo ezazisebenzisa amaza erediyo ukutshisa iimbumbulu.
Inkcubeko yabathengi baseMelika emva kwemfazwe yanda, kwaye uZenith wazifumana ekhokela kwimarike kamabonakude ekhula ngokukhawuleza.
Nangona kunjalo, uMlawuli uMcDonald ungomnye wabo bacatshukiswe sisiqalekiso sosasazo lukamabonakude: ikhefu lorhwebo. Wayalela ukuba kwenziwe i-remote control ukuze isandi sivalwe phakathi kohlelo. Kakade ke, umphathi wayibona nenzuzo enokubakho.
UPolly wayila inkqubo eneTV enee-photocells ezine, enye kwikona nganye yekhonsoli. Abasebenzisi banokutshintsha umfanekiso nesandi ngokukhomba iFlash-Matic kwii-photocells ezifanelekileyo ezakhelwe kwiTV.
U-Eugene Polley wasungula ithelevishini elawulwa kude ngo-1955 kwiZenith. Kwangaloo nyaka mnye, wafaka isicelo selungelo elilodwa lomenzi egameni lenkampani waza walinikwa ngo-1959. Liquka inkqubo ye-photocell yokufumana imiqondiso ngaphakathi kwikhonsoli. (I-US Patent kunye ne-Trademark Office)
“Emva kweveki, umphathi-mkhosi wathi ufuna ukuyivelisa. Yayithengiswa njengeekeyiki ezishushu – babengenakukwazi ukumelana nemfuno.”
“Umphathi-mkhosi uMacDonald wayithandile kakhulu ingcamango kaPolly yeFlash-Matic,” utshilo uZenith kwimbali yenkampani. Kodwa kungekudala “waqeqesha iinjineli ukuba zihlole ezinye iiteknoloji zesizukulwana esilandelayo.”
Dibana nomMelika owasungula imidlalo yevidiyo, uRalph Bell, umJamani owabaleka kumaNazi waza wakhonza kwi-US Army kwiMfazwe Yehlabathi yesiBini.
Ulawulo olukude lukaPolly lunemida yalo. Ngokukodwa, ukusebenzisa umqadi kuthetha ukuba ukukhanya okungqongileyo (njengokukhanya kwelanga okuphuma endlwini) kunokonakalisa iTV.
Emva konyaka iFlash-Matic ifikelele kwimarike, iZenith ikhuphe imveliso entsha, iSpace Command, eyaphuhliswa yinjineli kunye nomsunguli ophumeleleyo uGqr. Robert Adler. Oku kuhluke kakhulu kubuchwepheshe bokusebenzisa i-ultrasound endaweni yokukhanya ukulawula iityhubhu.
Ngo-1956, iZenith yazisa isizukulwana esilandelayo see-remote controls zeTV ezibizwa ngokuba yiSpace Command. Yaphuhliswa nguGqr. Robert Adler. Yayiyi-remote control yokuqala "eyi-clicker", ethatha indawo yetekhnoloji ye-remote control eyenziwe yinjineli yeZenith u-Eugene Polley. (Zhenit Electronics)
I-Space Command "yakhelwe ngeentonga ze-aluminiyam ezikhaphukhaphu, ezithi xa zibethelwa kwelinye icala, zivelise isandi esikhethekileyo esivakala kakhulu... Zinqunyulwa ngononophelo ngokobude, nto leyo ebangela ukuba kubekho iifrikhwensi ezine ezahluke kancinci."
Yayiyi-"clicker" yokuqala yokulawula kude - isando esincinci esenza isandi sokuklikha xa sibethwa esiphelweni sentonga yealuminiyam.
Kungekudala uGqr. Robert Adler wathatha indawo ka-Eugene Polley emehlweni eshishini njengomsunguli we-remote control kamabonakude.
IHolo yoDumo yeSizwe yabaQambi inika u-Adler udumo njengomqambi wesilawuli kude sokuqala sikamabonakude "esisebenzayo". UPolly akangowakwiqela labaqambi.
“U-Adler wayedume ngokuba phambili kunezinye iinjineli zeZenith,” utshilo uPolley Jr., wongezelela athi: “Oku kwamcaphukisa kakhulu utata.”
UPolly yinjineli yoomatshini ezifundise ngokwakhe engenaso isidanga saseyunivesithi, osebenzele phezulu esuka kwikhaya lokugcina impahla.
“Andifuni ukumbiza ngokuba ngumntu othanda izinto eziluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka,” utshilo umbhali-mbali weZenit uTaylor. “Kodwa wayengunjineli ongekho mhle kwezemishini, umntu ongekho mhle kwezeChicago.”
