In 1895, Thomas Edison investigated materials' ability to fluoresce when exposed to X-rays, and found that calcium tungstate was the most effective substance. Around March 1896, the fluoroscope he developed became the standard for medical X-ray examinations. He dropped X-ray research around 1903, even before the death of Clarence Madison Dally, one of his glassblowers.

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 - October 18, 1931) was an American inventor and businessman. He developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world, including the phonograph, the motion picture camera, and a long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. He was one of the first inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large teamwork to the process of invention, and therefore is often credited with the creation of the first industrial research laboratory.

Edison wax cylinder recorder (phonograph). The phonograph was invented in 1877 by Thomas Edison. While other inventors had produced devices that could record sounds, Edison's phonograph was the first to be able to reproduce the recorded sound. His phonograph originally recorded sound onto a tinfoil sheet wrapped around a rotating cylinder. A stylus responding to sound vibrations produced an up and down or hill-and-dale groove in the foil.

Thomas Edison's Incandescent Electric Lamp Patent. Edison began research into developing a practical incandescent lamp in 1878. He filed his first patent application for 'Improvement In Electric Lights' in October 1878. After many experiments, first with carbon in the early 1880s and then with platinum and other metals, in the end Edison returned to a carbon filament. The first successful test was on October 22, 1879, and lasted 13.5 hours.

Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, a.k.a. Madame Blavatsky (1831-1891) was a Russian writer who co-founded the Theosophical Society in 1875. She gained an international following as the leading theoretician of Theosophy. Theosophy is an esoteric movement that draws its teachings from Blavatsky's writings and from esoteric literature influenced by Neoplatonism, Hinduism, and Buddhism. Some prominent people involved with the movement included Thomas Edison, Alfred Russel Wallace, William Crookes, Hilma af Klint, Wassily Kandinsky, Piet Mondrian, and William Butler Yeats, to name a few.

The Kinetoscope is an early motion picture exhibition device designed for films to be viewed by one individual at a time through a peephole viewer window at the top of the device. The Kinetoscope was not a movie projector but introduced the basic approach that would become the standard for all cinematic projection before the advent of video, by creating the illusion of movement by conveying a strip of perforated film bearing sequential images over a light source with a high-speed shutter.
